Default Cloth Interior - Light Graphite vs Charcoal

so I ordered my car with a cloth interior and chose light graphite interior. But I'm debating now and thinking I might want to switch to the darker interior. does anyone have pics of their interiors?

one of the things I don't like about the darker interior is that I don't want it to feel too "claustrophobic" in the car

any thoughts?

I have the light graphite with vista blue-It is a great combo.

I test drove a '07 with the charcoal and it seemed too dark-the entire interior seemed the same color. The light graphite is a nice contrast to the black dash and steering wheel. A big plus is the lighter color brightens the interior.

Here are a few pictures of my interior. Don't worry, you made a good choice.....

I have light graphite leather - and regret it! Impossible to keep clean. Go with dark... shows less dirt.

I have the light graphite as well and you do have to be a little more careful with it than a darker interior but I am not hard on interiors, and it does look great.

thanks all, BHRS those pics are perfect, thanks a ton! I agree 100% after seeing the pics, especially the first one. the contrast is great and it brightens the interior nicely, I'm glad I chose the lighter color now

I just have to make sure my girlfriend doesn't spill her hot chocolate all over the place lol

Here's my 05 redfire with dark charcoal interior (at least I think that's what it's called). It's the most wide angle picture I have of the interior.



I actually like the darkness compared to the lighter interiors.
