    Thanks for the welcoming. The interior is tan with blue counterstitching and some carbon fiber. I've ordered custom matts with shields from Coach Trim. Hope it accents well. Here's a couple of interior pics. I was amazed at the job done to repair a leather scuff on the driver's side bolster. Something using a heat gun...can't remember the name. I cannot see any evidence of what was a fairly large scuff mark. Just hope it lasts and doesn't rub off. I'm pretty careful with entering and exiting.

    Beautiful car there mate, and impressed with the photos too, you must be using a really low F-Stop there, what lens is that?!

    You don't see many blue 430's and I'm all for having something different. What sound package have you got in there?

    Aaron,

    The lens is a Nikkor 85mm. F-stop was 1.4. Thanks for the comments. I have only the basic stock system. No Hi-Fi. My kids keep me looking young
