F430 Interior

Nick's car has tan with red inserts. Search nberry. It really nice. Not sure about the red carpet on tan interior. That might be a little shocking.

 

Not a F430, but the color combo is close.

I think you should get tan seats with black inserts and black pipping. I also think the capet looks better black.

Just my 2 cents, but I think the red carpet is nasty. The tan/black combo shown above is very nice.

 

Personally I favor the black interior with red carpets, gives it a nice zing! But a bit hard to clean I bet... I like it, but I don't know if I'd own one. Black carpets with red interior and black inserts and stitching would be killer.

 

A euro 360 spider. Looks different.

I would go will all tan and black.
I like the red carpet with black seats and black dash, but I don't care for it with tan seats.

 

Simple is better---IMO

 

Here is tan with red inserts. Also note the red prancing horse mats.

nberry,
I agonized over this decision myself recently. I had a 328 with tan leather/red carpets that I really liked. However, there are 2 shades of red available now. One is very bright like scuderia red, the other a dark bugundy. I don't think either works with rossa corsa exterior. Your dealer should have samples. The dark red would work well with Rossa Fiorano like the one pictured above, but that color is no longer offered. (Bummer). So, I am getting rossa corsa paint, tan leather and black carpets which, in the opinion of my wife and I, look much better than do the standard brown carpets. (We have seen both in 430's). I am also getting black piping, but not the inserts. That's just too "busy" for my taste.

There is no headliner in spiders.

- its time to take a look in the mirror

 

Viper - you probably already know this, but Ferrari will do a fair amount of custom work upon request. If something moves you, it's worth putting in an order.

I've always chosen either inserts or piping, but not both - but it's such a sucjective decision ....

When I order a car, I usually flip through the Fcar section of dupontregistry.com - IMO, it's a good place to see a variety of interior & exterior selections.

oops - was going to post a pic of my black/tan interior, but texasmike beat me to it!

 

I took delivery of a 612 this week in Ingrid Gregio with natural interior, black dash and steering wheel. The only things I can see that would improve it would be yellow calipers and black carpet. The tan carpet is good but not the perfect match for the interior. Also the way the black trim is designed around the bottom of the doors the black would look really good. I have to say the car is fantastic. It gets a much more positive reaction on the street and in the neighborhood than my 360. The 360 is black with linin interior with black piping and black carpet so I should have stuck to my guns on the choice of carpet. Instead I did the "normal" thing. The 360 is a manual and I just can't drive it without a smile but this 612 is one fabulous car. F is to be complimented. A truly great car!

 

Any shots of your 612?

 

These interiors look like pimpmobiles. All you need is a set of 22" Chrome Rims with spinners to complete the package

Keep the sophistication and good Italian design with more subtle colors/combinations.

 

Not yet, but I'll try to get some this week. I want to have clear shield put on this week. I got a referral from the dealer for the person they use. Sam at Premier prefers another brand (not 3M) and by reputation does excellent work. Unfortunately, he's on the west coast and hasn't been able to orgainize a trip to the mid-atlantic states. Anybody know anyone really good in the Carolinas or Virginia?

 

black inserts

 

The black inserts do look great on this interior. I saw a yellow 430 at FCI with black interior and yellow piping. It was also sharp. My 360 has lenin with black piping on a black exterior. It looks great. So piping is not a bad way to go either.
