What color interior do you think? Picture of Monaro is just showing my exterior color which is Glasurit Platinum Silver.

I think tan would suit the classy look of a bmw

Personally I like Black but that's just me. My 2nd choice would be the tan and last choice the blue, it looks shite.

Yep red....there are a bunch of late model bmw's getting around here like that, and looks good I reckon (and silver..or black..with red trim just look cool anyways

(Actually the factory ones I see around are a darker red, not really bright..)

Only reason i could think of not to go red is your monaro already has a red interior?

you have red in the munro. Maybe a nice navy blue? Tan is nice but it tends to stick out too much, and it gets dirty easily.

Red all the way.

Who gives a toss what colour is in your Monaro, you have to do what is best for this car and that red in silver looks sh!t hot!

Potta whilst I want to do something different because I have red I agree that I need to do what is right for this car. I am starting to think deep red/maroon as an option as Jeff said. My Monaro red is Holden Goya which is very bright. However to be honest I just don't know! Hey but that is the fun of a build. Not a bad problem to have!!

I appreciate everyone's thoughts. Whilst everyone has a different thought is actually does help to define what "l" want.

Cheers Damian

Gene I agree actually. I am going to the Muscle Car Expo in Melbourne next month and am hoping to see a silver and cappuccino car.

Personally i dont like interior colours that bleed through the windows and detract from the exterior of the car.

I would only choose red if your going to change the interior in the Monaro.

I think you said last time that the Monaro was going in for some sort of rebuild after the BMW was done.

Not a classic, but I think this car had a red leather interior at some stage. Built by Top Secret in Japan. 1000+HP and handles like its on rails. Been looking for an interior pic, but cant find one. I have pics in a magazine somewhere. It is an awesome looking combo.

Yes it will at some stage however interior will stay Goya red as it has been fully redone in recent times. Only consideration will be whether it stays blue or a different color externally.
