A big problem when deciding on my colour choice last October was the fact that the tan leather interior looked too gaudy in some pictures but very attractive in other photos. I thought that the other option, black was too oppressive in a small cabin and too hot in direct summer sun.
Another problem was the scarcity of a tan interior to view and I couldn’t find anywhere a picture of the silver / tan combination. Apart from my car, I still haven’t seen a picture of this combination.
In real life, I don’t find the tan gaudy at all and it goes beautifully with the silver. Fortunately the marble white isn’t available in the Coupe as my choice probably would have been very difficult.
So, for those who are contemplating the silver/tan combination, below are my pics.
Opps...

It looks alot better in a lighter coloured car...!
I remember the earlier posts with it in a dark coloured car... it was like... fake tan + OT at a solarium + more fake tan (just in case)...
Is the plastic less orangey in real life BobB?
The colour of your seats in direct sunlight is the same as the colour of the leather in my NA... I told myself that Id junk it when I brought it home... but its really grown on me...!
If/when I get my seats retrimmed/get racing seats... I wanna keep the same colour!

It definitely looks like the tan of a saddle, or rugby ball, definitely not orange.
