Which interior with Toronto Red?
I'm about to order a g82 in Toronto red but can't really decide on interior with carbon seats. Black would be an acceptable choice but I think it takes away from the complexity of the design. Silverstone also looks cool but this car is going to be driven around a lot and I'm scared of looking dirty since it's so light.
So I was thinking kyalami orange. Am I insane? Will it look like sh*t and people will laugh at me? |

One of the reasons I am not considering Toronto Red is that it only works with Black or Silverstone interiors (unless you're going individual), both of which don't work for me.
I don't think Red will look good on Kyalami Orange at all!

I am going to take the opposite position on orange than m-sport above. I think the orange would definitely work with TR. It is going to be a much different tone than the exterior. Tho I would need to see it in person to decide just how much I like it.
That said without being able to see anything in person prior to order, I think silverstone and a pack of leather cleaning wipes would be my #1 option. Modern automotive grade leather is pretty durable and The occasional wipe down of high traffic areas should keep it looking great. I am never a proponent of black interior, I always feel it is boring, especially in this car considering the seats actually have some pattern design to them |

I've seen the kyalami in person and don't think it looks as orange than the name suggests. If you wouldn't have thought twice about Aragon Brown or Midrand Beige with TR, then you'll likely be fine here.
This thread seems to show it well from quite a few different angels: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1772439

I went TR with Silverstone CF Buckets and Red calipers. I really wanted red calipers but with the white leather on the red exterior the blue would have made it look like captain america's car.

I went today and had a look at the color samples at the local dealership. The kyalami orange is way too bright in my opinion and my personal opinion is that it wouldn't work with toronto red. So it's either black or silverstone.

Resurrecting this Zombie thread. I am thinking of ordering TR with tartufo....but the sample of Tartufo they had on the wall looked very different from the pics I have seen here. It looks almost football brown. Not sure it will mesh with TR the way I want it to. Wish cognac was an option. So now I am either going Silverstone or Fiona. Thoughts? How hard is it to keep Silverstone clean if you are not a car cleaning obsessive?
