Question Burnt Orange - good or bad?

Hey guys,

I'm getting a new Z in May. I'm looking to get a black touring model with the burnt orange leather. I think it looks amazing in photos, but have yet to see it in person. I was wondering if anyone here has it, or has seen it, and what they think of it. Thanks in advance for your replies.

Welcome. If your needs are that specific you may have to shop out of state. I also recommend that you begin now.

I love the burnt orange, adds a great contrast to the black exterior.

I bought the roadster, so the burnt orange has the black inserts, but man does it look good against the black. I am not convinced that the full orange seats would be as nice. I don't really care much about this personally, but trends change, and you can't go wrong with gray or black leather for resale. Not everyone will love the orange when you go to resell it, so if your intention is to sell within a couple of years, its something to think about.
