    Personally, of all the above I think the most suitable for a metallic bright red would be the two I've attached. I think the richness and tone of that shade of brown would work well with a brighter red.

    Very nice... I was thinking the same thing. Now down to Soul Joe, Count Prestige and Toscano.
    Any thoughts as to the seat style assuming an electric non racing seat?

    Hmmmmmm. If electric is a must, the one I've attached is my personal favourite. Why no racing seats though?

    Very cool “camo” theme!
    I was under the impression that the racing seats are less comfortable, less adjustable and even to a point less desirable overall for a GT car. In other words, if the intent of the car is to cruise then why have racing seats which seem to be a compromise. That being said, in my opinion, racing seats have a place in this car if you are taller, or if your particular design would be incomplete without them in which case these advantages outweigh the compromise.
    I welcome the opinion of others.

    That’s a fair characterization. We’ve spec’d the Goldrake (racing) seats in every Ferrari for which they were available. I would agree that our bulkier FF seats were probably more comfortable for journeys over 4-5 hours. But I find the Goldrake seats to be comfy, too, and so beautiful and better suited to higher lateral cornering loads (but still not as good as a Porsche Cup seat).

    After reading some more threads, I have changed my mind 2/3rds of people prefer the racing seats and almost all feel that they are comfortable for at least 30 minutes but more likely 2-3 hours. Ultimately, it does come down to style which seems to be at a much higher level with the racing seats.
    Plenty of seat styles ranging from smooth, to mild scoring, plain Daytonas or striped daytonas. Any consensus as to what would best fit the character of a Rosso GTS?

    So many options to choose from, I think myself and others could sit here for hours contemplating options and combinations between the seat style, leather colour, treatment, etc...Maybe narrow down what you're looking for/want in the spec!

    I know many people keep saying racing seats dont fit with the car, but come on, this is a Ferrari. Although not the track focused Pista, it remains a very fast and capable sports car, and racing seats are definitely not out of space in here. They look so much better and in my opinion are very comfortable (I am 184cm for 75Kg). Maybe they dont fit all body shapes, and I can understand that. But I am only considering a 812 with racing seats. They are a must for me.

    I still like the look of Count Prestige leather in the style as seen on the tdF. It simply looks naturally rich without trying too hard. MY 2 cents...

    Probably Grigio chiaro. Light gray. Opinion? Works in this car

    Be careful with these highlights in the dash- may reflect.

    Does anyone know approximately what the upcharge to do the interior leather in count prestige instead of standard cuoio is?

    I would like to know the appropriate cost as well. I do not want to go to TM without any idea whether something is worth doing when compared with other beautiful options including those that are “standard”.

    @Challenge64 would be the man to ask off the top of my head. His TDF has it.

    Both are stunning..Heritage mahagony reminds me of a wonderfully patina'd couch whereas Count Prestige resembles fine luggage. There is no wrong choice!
