    Hello all... My ordered Red 599 came in last week but while it was in route about three weeks ago from Marenello, i saw a friend's 599 with saddle quilted interior with red pipping in St Tropez... it absolutely looked beautiful... I had my agent switch orders with another customer who agreed to take my car and I take his build in which i was able to have them change the seating options to the quilted saddle with the red pipping... Now the dilemma continues when today I saw another Red 599 with all the same options as mine except it had Black quilted seats with the Red piping>>> WOW... it looked fantastic with that combination... its one thing when you order the car and you just see the patterns, its a whole different perspective when you see the cars after completion... Its actually quite upsetting that Im even considering calling my agent again to have him try to figure another brilliant approach to my indecisiveness... In either case Im torn between... not sure if I should inquire about changing the interior again and wait again>>> GOD, that black/ red interior looks amazing though... Wanted your inputs... Thank you greatly in advance...

    Thank you Joey... LOL>>> I know I agree with you that either combo will look fantastic... that is the problem... I wish I had some photos on my phone to upload... I just sent a text to the person with the Black interior to forward me some pics... as soon as he hopefully responds, I will post them...

    I think a Red Car with Red Seats and and Black Inserts in the daytona seats would look good along with red stitching. Are you sure you even want a Red 599? Get something different

    Waleed both are gorgeous color combo's.. I myself would take the Saddle with red piping, its just too damn gorgeous and classy on that car, Black with red piping is obviously much sportier ;)

    Congrats and goodluck!

    If you want it to be a very traditional Ferrari have the classic combination go for the Saddle interior. You will never regret that combo and have second thoughts about your switch. The car is going to be nuts! I got to move one today and damn its the best car around

    I have tried different color combos in my then 360 and 360 spider... as you said "traditional">>> I am a big fan of the traditional Rossa Red... its the most beautiful/ sexy color IMO...

    Thank you Martin... I love how you say "too damn gorgeous and classy">>> I couldnt have said it any better... the is exactly how I feel... and you are right about the black being much sportier... my thoughts exactly when I saw her... tough decision...

    The black will show more wear, like on the seat bolsters. I also think dark interiors can make the cabin feel less open and airy. I'd go with the saddle interior. I also wouldn't worry about it too much - it's not like you're picking your wife, it's just a car, and whatever you get, I'm sure you'll love it.

    I believe he took delivery of the car. If you look in the background of one of the pictures I believe you can see Bradley's car (with the Ecircket stickers).

    Hi Naveed,

    No, I know the pictured car and who it belongs to (not someone called Waleed). It was recently delivered through Ferrari of Central New Jersey. It also has the rear diffuser painted red, which is a nice touch.

    I think he said he "saw" the car, and it's making him indecisive. It would do the same to me, I think it's the nicest black interior I've seen.

    What's with all the "ban" avatars? I guess I'm not around here enough anymore.

    Nabbs>>> zjpj is correct... the above int pic isnt from my car... that is the picture from a friends 599 which caused the dilemma>>> the int set up of mine is the same as above except I decided to stay with Saddle... car is built and will be in the states within 12 days...

    Martin>>> no I decided to stay with my first choice of Saddle as we discussed... was starring at the 430 for a while and realized how brilliant the traditional Red/ Saddle looks...

    zjpj>>> "It also has the rear diffuser painted red, which is a nice touch"
    I completely agree with you, definitely a nice touch from Ferrari... as soon as I saw the rear diffuser, I immediatley asked for it...

    Waleed, I highly doubt you'll be disappointed with whichever interior scheme you choose for that beast, haha.

    This will look great. The quilted leather is a fantastic vintage touch and looks amazing.
