They look fecking awful in ANY car of ANY age !

There are piles of them round here and no matter how good the car looks if I see red leather (or ANY red in there bar piping) I immediately loose interest. Went to look at a lovely SL500 today, pulled up - red leather. Walked away without looking at the rest.

Does anyone else feel the same ?

 

No.

 

Red leather can look great in the right car IMO

 

depends on the car. I like it in the st mondeos, and in bmws

 

When I was looking for my M3 I kept coming across ones with red leather and that put me straight off.

 

Nope. I wanted red leather in my car but ended up with black.

 

this looks brilliant with the red leather

red leather looks well nice in dark gray e46 m3s i think

 

Grey m3 with red leather is the nuts, especially new shape M3

 

think your on your own there Mr S1

 

nowt wrong with a bit red leather, wouldnt mind it for my mondeo

 

+1 looks awful

 

i think it looks fucking ace in certain cars

 

not a fan of it myself tbh

 

i saw a black merc SLR with red leather in it at a car show,

best combination i have ever seen

 

That's what came to mind for me too black E92 M3 & gunmetal M5 works...

 

suits some cars very well and ruins others.

 

Outvoted I may be - but I think it looks shite in any car !

 

Elephant ass grey Recaro's with blue piping looks shit 9 times out of 10, but S1 interiors are the nuts...

Horses for courses dude

 

White M3, red leather - stunning!

 

Think it looks awesome. Miles better than old shitty velour cloth!

 

If I was to buy a m3, it would have to have red leather.

 

I really like red leather, but depends on car and colour!

 

Any car? Any age? You're very very wrong:

 

I had red leather on my old carbon black e46 m3. Loved it

 

me sis has a mondeo st220 grey colour red leather trim ,i love it suits the car

 

nah not a fan of red leather especially some of the bmw ones which are more of a browny dried blood colour. the gullwing merc pictured here looks ok with it but would look far better with white or cream leather

 

Looks nice in some cars IMO.

 

I LOVE red leather too!

 

White or cream on a silver car? nasty.

 

I like it but if you wear white and sweat a lot it probably isn't a good idea

 

Wrong wrong wrong wrong my mates st500 focus looks the shit

 

Varys from car to car, looks gopping in cars like ferraris/ Porsche etc, but really suit darker colour german saloons like the m3 etc? As said, I think it is entirely dependant on the car. But I do like the darker red, the bright red really doesn't suit many cars at all...

9/10 cars look far far better with black leather, the colour I can't get my head round is tan/ beige dog poo colour leather, just makes 99.9% of cars look horrid?

 

I think that just looks tacky. Spoils the rest of the car. In my opinion it looks like BMW couldn't find the correct seats and just thought "fuck it, bung these red ones in and hope a colour blind person buys it".
You have my vote mate.

Digressing slightly, saw a nice cream leather interior in a Mk1 Focus RS at Central day at the Pod.

 

its not all bad.... it original though:

Red leather can look uber sexy in the right car

Granted, your usual shitty series 2 or whatever with a red interior will look PONY

 

I like black or dark grey bodies with red leather, mis match the colours and its a bit spewy.

I saw some twat with a lime green golf and red leathers once, I thought It escaped from the hadron colider!

 

Red leather is cool.

 

Was about to post exactly that!

 

some people like it - as when my bro was looking for an E46 he HAD to have one with red leather.
