"Great rare contrast"...ehhh...beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess. Red/Grey wouldn't be my first choice regardless of how nice the car is.

I don't mind gray so long as it's clean. Dirty gray leather is nasty looking.

It's weird on imola though. Of course it's a personal choice but that's basically the one combo I'd stay away from at any price (unless said price gave me room to swap in something else)

I would take it. That mileage is good and it looks to have been taken care of.

Find higher mileage examples that need work, if you want to spend less. People must not realize things go bad after 10 years regardless of use.

I feel like he would get a price closer to asking price if he would list what maintenance has been done recently, how old the tires are (and what tires), etc.

I bought mine earlier this year with 57k miles and needed FCABs, VCG, and will need brakes and tires within the next 4 months or so.

You shut the fuck up!

Sike!

Seriously...I hate my interior. The fact that they offer grey as standard annoys me. It should be either Black or a special color I.E. Natural Brown, Imola, Cinnamon, Alcantara.

I'd have to agree, the one I just bought is white with gray, the contrast is maybe a little better than red/gray, but I still intend to replace with black asap!

The car is mine... I wish I could provide a long list of recent maintenance to show how i've "cared for it" but I really have not had to do anything in my year of ownership. The FCAB's were replaced last May before I bought the car. The tires are Michelin Pilot SS on all but one tire (which can be replaced) with approximately 5-6/32 tread remaining. In the last year I've had an oil service and received and said the car will only need some drive belts. We all know dealerships will find things to work on. I took the car to an independent shop in the area for a second opinion and heard the same. I am considering doing this myself as the shops are asking ~300 which seems excessive. I may try it myself and am open to hearing what you guys think.. Everything else is good. There is no drama with the car. When I had it inspected after purchasing it the shop told me the seller will require top dollar. I have enjoyed the car immensely and don't really want to sell it. Physically it is not perfect but certainly good. I actually prefer non-black interiors and though grey would not be my first choice, it works in my opinion. All a matter of taste I guess. Anyhow, I'm open to suggestions as I'm trying to sell it but trying not too at the same time : ).

I really, really don't get the hate that grey leather interiors get.

Sure, it's not as nice as NB or Tan, or Alcantara, but it's far more interesting than black. It goes with IR, it goes with AW, the blacks, dark grey and silver.

I'd much rather have an IR over grey leather than black ... but maybe that's just because I live in the SW, where black leather just seems like a miserable heat sink ...

In any case, GLWS!

Ehh..It's all personal preference. It's not so much "hating" on it as much as it just wouldn't be something I'd spend my money on. I could understand living in the SW and enjoying that interior as in a practical sense it is a good in between tan and black and all. It just doesn't look right on the Imola, there's a clash between the two that I see when I look at it and it's something I believe I'd see EVERY time I opened the door to that car, hence why even if the car is really nice I wouldn't want it (I'm speaking to cars in general new/used/etc; colors play a massive role to some and do not to others, I'm one of the former).

But yeah, we all have different takes on many things in life and the color palette for ZHP's is definitely made up of plenty choices.

The grey looks good with Mystic Blue.
