Talking

Hi all,

I've finally decided on a colour! After MANY months of trying to decide.

Anyway... What colour Leather would be the best choice? I have a feeling Parchment would match the Legend Lime the best. But what about the wear factor? Which will last longer (if maintained..)

Also people say the parchment will show dirt which isn't that bad as I plan to clean it as required. Black will show the dust etc..

Any ideas..

Thanks,

Ben

I saw the light Parchment with legend lime and didn't like it at all.

Personally I think you should go with Dark Charcoal

Black. Tint your windows as it will draw more heat, which is one of leather's worst enemies.
Tan. Be prepared to be disappointed years down the road because it will show dirt.
Tint your windows and get black, you'll be happiest. Besides, this is a muscle car, not a luxury car.

I have the parchment leather in my WB, it does show dirt,is it more than is normal? I don't think so. But back to your question, I was going to go for the Legend Lime also, but didn't at the last minute, but I would have had the black interior with that color. It's a matter of accent, the parchment and the lime kind of reminds me of trees. The parchment seemed to fit WB like a glove. Of course just my opinion. The legend lime is a beautiful color, no matter what interior you choose.

Wow that was quick! Tons of replies, I do agree Dark Charcoal looks mint. Keep the opinions coming.

After the exterior took as long as it did. I hope I can decide on this quick.. hehe

Dark charcol all the way. i just got a legend lime V6 with dark charcoal. It doesn't have leather, but the dealership I got my car from had a legend lime GT with the leather medium parchment interior. I would rather have dark charcoal cloth than medium parchmet leather.

Here is a pic of the interior of my car, just so you can see how the colors go together:

Never really noticed dust on a dark interior, unless of course you live next to a saw mill.

Legend lime is a great color. I love the retro feel of that color, along with the windveil blue, but in my opinion, the lime needs something to contrast it...ie. dark charcoal. The first GT mustang I saw in person was a windveil blue with grey interior. Same thing...not enough contrast. This is also why the bullitt wheel doesn't look as good on the lime.(imo) Having said that, I test drove a legend lime with parchment interior (no IUP), and I could have lived with that. From the inside of the car, there is plenty of contrast. It's only when looking through the window from the outside that it doesn't work for me. What will your primary viewpoint be?
