Well the VR is sharp too. Definately a break from the conservative ! Good luck.

Well, she's been ordered. Vermillion Red, Sand Beige, M Sport, and most of the goodies. I should get a Performance Center delivery late March or early April.

Thanks for all the replies.

I have the vermillion red interior, and the mojave leather. I get many compliments on the combo. If I had to do it over again, I would probably get the oyster leather because with that combo you get a beige carpet, the mojave gets the grey/charcoal color carpeting that shows dirt too easily. I do love the mojave color...goes very well with the red. Best of luck.

I'm not sure if its the same in the US. But in the UK, with Oyster leather you still get grey/charcoal color carpeting. You only get beige carpeting with beige leather.
I would have thought that beige carpet would show even more dirt ??

We get the same in US, that's why I had opted for Oyster with VR.

In my area, at least, the "foot crud" tends to be brownish dirt and leaves and jumps out easily on the charcoal carpet. Other "stuff" that gets in there seems to be in the white category and also shows up well. Some amount of greyish pebbles blend in well, but the seem to have been in the minority so far. I wouldn't change my choice, but the stuff doesn't really blend as I thought it would. (Even after having several cars with the same interiors -- I guess the footwell is more visible on this one.)
