Maybe im not seeing something or maybe im uninformed. I know each has their own taste, as do i. But for some reason, i just can not stand the color Cuoio. I have had it and try real hard to "grow on it" but cant understand its massive popularity. I prefer rosso corsa on nero. Can cuoio fans tell me what is it about the color? Is there some historical, cultural... Any value that im missing?
My Italian is rusty, but if memory serves, "cuoio" translates into "leather" or "hide". So in a Ferrari, a cuoio interior would be something that's natural hide or something to that effect. FWIW.
I love that color - a bit darker and less delicate than tan. Of course, I also do like ass, if it be behind the proper woman.
I like the color - I ordered it in my black 458. I think cuoio looks good with black carpeting and black CF trim. Here's a pic. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Many people like it... I think even more when it comes to red exterior. On my ros cor 458, i had to get used to the cuoio. Never grew to like it. Maybe on grig silv ext, i can think it goes well but uhhh... What am i missing?!
I quite like it if it is combined with the right exterior color. For instance on a 355 or 550, I think there is no better combination out there than TDF Blue over Cuoio. (And in a black 458 it certainly looks sharp too... Nice choice, Toggie!)
Cuoio is the same natural leather color as on baseball mitts, cowboy boots, and horse saddles. What's not to love? . Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Strictly litteraly: "Cuoio" means "leather"; as a color, it would be translated more or less as "natural leather". "Pelle" means "hide". But in usual, day-to-day parlance, italian tends to use "pelle" in some circumstances when most other languages would use "leather": when you say a "leather jacket", they would usually use "pelle", not "cuoio". rgds
