Props for a non black/gray car with a non black interior! Beautiful!

You'll be glad you sprung for one that isn't gray with a black interior.

Not that those aren't beautiful too, but as XJRS_Owner said, there are just a bazillion of them out there.

Almond Green is a gorgeous color and suits an elegant car very well. And congratulations on finding one with something different on the inside, I'm sure it will grow on you and be a (positive) conversation starter at all the meet ups.

On a side note, I've never figured out why Aston named that color Almond Green, it's obviously Pistachio!

Wrong nut guys!

I was thinking the same thing... but according to Mr Google almonds are actually green before they are fully ripe. Never knew that.

I was this days old when I learned that unripened almonds are green!

Interesting.

But still, unripened strawberries are green too, but it would be strange to call a green car Strawberry Red.

Great call on the seat button covers !! Subtle but unique.
