need your opinions about colour!

i'm getting a black 07 MCS with black roof but am not sure about the interior colour.

i've gone for full leather black (punch black, i think it's called?) but I'm now having second thoughts as I'm not sure whether it will look too dark. what do you think?

cheers

If the recaro's are availible then go for those, they look great and give you some contrast, some pics here

Have a look at some of Paul's photos from Paris. The beige interior, piano black and chromeline look great IMHO. It might not be sporty looking enough for an MCS, perhaps, but it's very classy.

Start here, then have a look through the next 5 or 10 photos.

You can get the Ray cloth/leather in cream, which is black cloth with a pinstripe and cream leather sides. It might not be possible to get the beige door panels though, unless you have the full beige leather interior. The combination options are fairly bewildering. Best either talk to a dealer, or check out some of the .pdf files that are floating around - one of them covers the recommended and optional combinations for the interior.

It is only possible to get the beige "interior world" with the Gravity leather (beige leather) shown above. You can't get the beige door cards with any other interior option but the beige leather. Same with red door cards- only available with the red lounge leather.
