Yeah, but he doesn't have any close up pictures of the seats. I want to see the quality of the seats from Katzkin. I hope he can post more pictures.

I have the orange seats. At first it was not my first pick. But after i bought the car, I was very pleased with the look. It grew on me !! I am glad I got the orange seats in my silverstone tourer. I wouldn't have it any other way! And to think,.... I wanted black. What was I thinking!!!!!! the orange is the way to go!!!!!!

i like my orange. i have just the silver with orange which is the color combo they released the z at the tokyo auto show during the debut as. the silverstone with the orange looks better to me as a combo though.
girls dont dig on the orange so much. play it safe go with black. more exotic go with orange

It's all on what you want.. the black on black is very smooth and sophisticated. The burnt orange looks racey, exotic, etc.

Having said that I'm not sure which I'd pick either.

Black should be easier to clean and keep clean. It also darkens the overall interior of the car, giving thieves less to look at (though if they want to see inside they will).

I have SS with burnt orange and i love the seats! You can see them from outside the car and they look really great! They are very exotic! I really have black interiors, i like tan alot. But since the dash in the Z is all black (except for the frost) i had no choice, so i got the orange seats. They look really great, i get compliments all the time.

I really like the burnt orange color for the leather seats but there is a problem. I asked most of my friends and I found out that most guys like them in orange but most girls like them in black. Orange is more attractive to guys and Black is more attractive to girls. And I would like to attract girls not guys, but I really like the burnt orange color. What should I do?

Orange all the way. Black leather is so common in every car. IMO they are too boring. The burnt orange adds so much to the look of the Z. When I ordered my car last year I went with the SS Performance (cloth seats). Then I saw a SS Touring at the dealership with the orange leather and I had to have it. It blew me away. Love it.

Just wonderng, has anyone done the orange seats in a DB? I saw a darker blue M3 convertible at the auto show with orange leather and it looked HOT! I hope to be joining your ranks very soon.

Dood - who gives a fock what your friends like, or what girls supposedly like - you have a Z - a girl isnt gonna give half a turd what color the seats are. Shes gonna be thinkin about other things, like how she could convince you to put it in her pooper














"Nah Im just playin ladies, you know i love you..." hehe
