    I was wrong. My memory is not what it used to be. Blu Abu Dhabi exterior with Tortoru interior - blue seatbelts on the 812

    Blu NART exterior with Cuio interior - black seatbelts in the F8.

    Blue stitching and horse in both:

    Thank you for posting. Any idea of the color for piping on couio? Blu Medio? It doesn't look like Santorini.

    Sounds right, I will have a look to see but don’t remember off hand.

    I really appreciate all the help everyone has given on this question. Not sure I'm any closer to deciding on the seatbelts, but I do think I might shift away from the Blue Santorini leather to a different Blue!

    I will check out Prussia Blu, it looks like it might be a good match. Any other suggestions for good color matches with my config.

    Again,
    Blue TDF
    Beige Tradizione
    Blue Interior Accents (Now TBD)
    Blue or Black seatbelts LOL.

    @isuk you seem to have an eye or this sort of thing and access to the color palettes...

    I have built up a collection of paint samples, the leather and alcantara samples, stitching samples, seatbelt samples, carpet samples and alcantara samples. I don't have the latest Extra Range Leather samples book as yet nor do I have the new small box of paint samples that dealers now have for some of the newer special request paint colours.

    Prussia Blu leather looks to be a Tailor Made option so can only be specified if you were able to go down this route. This is the only car I can find with Prussia Blu leather https://exclusivecarregistry.com/details/ferrari/ispirazioni/32253

    Tailor Made opens up a whole host of additional Poltrona Frau leather colours - Prussia Blu being one of these - along with Connolly leathers.

    Looking through the Range Leather samples I can't find a shade of blue that really compliments TDF. There is a shade called Blu Lipari in the new Extra Range Leathers. It looks quite dark in the official factory photo so it's hard to say if it will be closer to TDF tonally or completely wrong.

    My best advice would be to visit your dealer and go through the samples in person and take them outdoors into natural light if possible. They should have the new Extra Range Leather samples book to show you.

    when you have to guess if its blue or black, then the blue is too dark.
