FF interior choice advice

Looking at two preowned FF's. Both Silverstone.

One's a Cuoio interior with Daytona seats with black seat stripes, black stitching and black in the middle of the door panels.

The other is Iroko with diamond inserts and black stitching and black in the middle of the door panels.

I've seen similiar interiors to the Cuoio in other Ferrari models (but not an FF) and I've seen lots of photos of Iroko and a large Iroko leather sample but not an actual Iroko interior.

The cars are on opposite ends of the US and nowhere near me.

I know, buy what you like, and I would if I knew. There isn't really anything else on either car to sway the decision one way or the other.

I could use some input!

 

You asked....so this is just my opinion

Iroko is a very nice color, but candidly it's too "brown" for me. I'm not a fan of darker brown/chocolate shades on our car interiors.

I'm 50/50 on Daytona seats; I would never order them myself but neutral on them; I'm less of a fan of the contrast colors on Daytonas as to me it makes the seats too busy.

Cuoio is "neutral", but to us it's classy and I think offsets the GS paint nicely.

Good luck. The FF is an awesome car in any color/finish.

 

It's a personal thing.

I think the Daytona seats look completely wrong in the FF, and I think the diamond seats are the right ones.

I think Cuoio is boring and overdone, and I think colours like Iroko, Terra Bruciata and Cioccolato gives a GT like the FF a nice luxury lush feel. I think the dark browns really ties in well with the dark grey GS. If one wants to offset the interior in relation to GS, I'd go for Bordeaux.

As for resale? Forget it. It's a toss up. They are slightly different, but there will be buyers for both.

I'm not more right or wrong than Entropy, I just like something different.

One thing I don't understand is this. You're about to sink a few hundred grand into a car. Why not just buy a pair of plane tickets and go see both?

 

on silverstone id go iroko and i wldnt do daytona seats in an FF

 

So this is all personal taste/ opinion. As I see it, the Cuoio interior is likely easier to sell when the time comes. But with that said, I'd go with the Iroko as its just more interesting to me, especially for a large GT car. Though I don't like the diamond stitch (too "Bentley") but I'd live with it.

 

I have a Silverstone FF with Iroko interior. It is quite elegant. Mine has plain seats but I love the Daytona.

 

Mine has bordeaux interior.

I have a Grigio Ferro and Cuoio with diamond seats so I am biased.... I have also looked recently at a Cioccolato diamond and it looks great.
Personally don't like Daytona seats on the FF as the folding seats in the back look weird with Daytona horizontal lines and the seat fold, as can be seen in this photo

Do you perhaps have a better picture?

 

I hadn't noticed that. Great point. Thanks.

 

Bordeaux interior with one of the silvers/greys on the exterior would be my first choice but impossible to find preowned.

 

Two more pictures. Sorry if they are sideways. Dont know how to get right!

Mine is a swiss car and is available! Looking at a F12.

 

It's beautiful. Wish it was in the US.
