Rosso Corsa with Tan or Black

So when considering red 355,

Would you select one with a tan interior or black interior?

What do you like about your choice?

I prefer the tan interior but both are good. A proper mix of both is really nice.

 

Black is just too dark and too hot in summer. Beige / Cream looks more elegant as well

 

+1 Exactly why I won't buy a car with black interior.

 

Tan without a doubt

 

Black interior as it stays cleaner and looks newer/younger over time.....ideal with red stitching .... Again this is taste.....

Also, you need to consider the other impacted colors like the dash and carpeting which also looks cleaner over time.......

 

I agree with every thing you said.

 

Why not both? It's officially tan but the original owner specified black carpets, I really like it and it's somewhat rare (only seen a handful done this way).

If I could only choose between a single tone it'd most definitely be tan, classic.

+1 cream is fantastic but of course more difficult to keep in good shape.

 

I see you live in AZ. We who live in TX dislike black interriors because of the summer time heat. AZ is supposed to be hotter than TX for the most part.

 

I had black with the sport seats, so they had the red cloth centers.

I now have tan.

The black looks sportier. The tan looks more classic.

There are so many other bits to consider with these cars, the interior color is not really one that would be high on my list except for real heinous colors or combos (of which there are precious few in the 355 world...)

 

My car and I say "tan"

 

IMO - tan, without a doubt.

 

Black is the proper EU color, you don't see Tan interior often in Italy.

You don't see ANY super car's with Tan - perhaps >3 Enzo.

Find the best 355 you can, interior color is second to finding a good car, getting to picky will have you wait a very long time. Black is proper Ferrari, tan is very American.

 

I have two cars with black leather interior. A good cleaning and conditioning every year, and they'll look like new forever.

Thats because in the old days most cars had black interior.

 

This is definitely the money.

I need to see it at cars and coffee.

Good point about the super cars. Thanks for adding it!

I may not buy a red 355 but there are so many of them, I thought I'd ask the question. I love Italian things, but I am an American so ... There's the conundrum.

I agree black is too dark very pleased with my Tan interior with the red carpets.

Rosso with crema is more a euro thing I think....whereas the tan seems more of a US thing..

 

Agreed. Hardly any Rosso/tan cars in UK. Those that are are often US or Singapore cars.

I quite like it but grew up on a diet of Rosso/Crema.
