I gotta price today, for all WHITE LEATHER INTERIOR, including the doors, came out to $1800, notta "mod" that makes her faster, but, a lot prettier, and 1 of a kind.
WHAT do y'all think ? I can get it 2-toned, Red / White, that's another $400 bux (more labor)
I just wish FORD had a white leather option........... JMO

I like the idea, but practically, it would be impossible to keep clean. My graphite interior gets dirty in a hurry.

I tried to order the dove/black leather seats for my 2007 Tungston GT, but was told that it wasn't possible unless I took the ENTIRE "California Special" package- which I definitely didn't want because I don't care for any of that other stuff it comes with (just my particular taste guys- don't mean to diss anyone who does like those non-functional scoops & stripes which I happen to think are COP MAGNETS!).

I would think twice. You really have no idea how much dirt you dont see in a car with even light graphite leather compared to white. Just driving with the windows open in the summer for a few saturdays will cover the interior in grime.

I have white leather in my mopar, it is absolutly stunning. The car is a dark cinnimon mettalic (like a reddish/orangy/brown with alot of mettalic) With a white two toneinterior. The dash, console andcarpeting is all black. Seats, door panels, headliner, are white.It is impossible to keep it looking nice and still use it. You essentially end up putting a cover on the drivers seat anyway. And this is on a showcar. I redid the whole interior a couple years ago. If it were black, the drivers seat would still be perfect.Now it is slightly showing its age after two summers. So it might get replaced soon. I ended up buying two full hides of leather from thesame dye lotandthey used about 3/4 of one of them. So I can have another drivers seatdone if I wanted to.

I have had a couple white interior cars. After a while it becomes impossible to clean the seats and they are permanantly soiled. Forget about EVER wearing blue jeans in the car again without a cover. Unless you like permanantly stained light blue seats that is.

This is reminding me. Thelight graphite seats inthe stang need to be cleaned andtreated.

I had white leather in my 69 Dodge Coronet R/T. Black body, white hard top, with white R/T stripe. Looked great butgot dirty in a heart beat. Never again for me. Way to much work keeping it clean all the time.
