    I went for Beige but rather wonder if Cuoio would have been a better long term choice for durability, thoughts please ?

    Personally I would be more concerned how it matched the exterior color. The beige will show a little more dirt but if you keep it clean it shouldn't wear any differently.

    No comparison. Cuoio is much richer and deeper color, and I have not seen a color that it does not work better with than beige. Has always been my first choice!!

    +1 - however, I don't know if there is a correlation between color and durability...?

    I had tough time deciding beige or Cuoio, ended up ordering Cuoio with black carpet black dash.

    I ordered Cuoio with black dash & carpets to match the Nero exterior & was VERY pleased...

    Clean your leather adequately (method and product). I have Sabbia in my 550 and Crema in my 355 and they have proven very durable, much more than darker colors on analog cars.
    The good thing with clearer leathers is that grime motivates you to take care of them, which in turn translates into better durability.

    I've always ordered Beige with black dash and black carpets. Don't think I ever saw Couiu in person and my dealer always just steered me towards beige.

    I like beige over cuoio. Beige is much richer and I think that cuoio is too dark in person.

    Cuoio looks particulary good with white stitching, it raises mildly S&hit brown to a complete new level, don't discount this advice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The only F car I ordered was Grigio Ingrid / Couio with black dash and black carpets.....


    MUCH richer looking than beige, plus, if you do stay with the tan carpet, it actually goes, unlike the beige.

    I ordered dual color interior(DUAL), with beige and cuoio. Cuoio is dominant color.
    Have gotten many positive responses.

    Here is my cuoio interior, although Ferrari on the window sticker calls it natural brown. I'll take baby poo anytime.

    Could u or someone elaborate on what the best products are to clean the leather and specify as to what method u are referring to? With the top down, the headrests and roll bars get exceptionally dirty and I can't find a product that makes the job easier.

    Natural brown may actually be a different color than Cuio----The Cuio cars I have seen do not look like your interior.... BTW looks very nice!!

    +1. As for cleaning I use Auto Glym interior shampoo followed by Zymol's Treat leather conditioner. AG shampoo can be used on any interior surface and Treat brings the leather alive without causing greasy shine that some other products do.
