Hi
Have got to spec my F430 F1 Coupe by Friday.
Am thinking of the following.

Grigio Silverstone
Sabbia Interior
Black Dash & Carpet
Yellow Tach
Yellow Calipers
Alloy Centre Dash
Electric Seats

Comments on above please.

Also what colour STC2 Stitching should I go for with this interior?
Also should I get Leather headliner?
Also should I get carbon rear Grill to be different?

Any help/advice/opinions much appreciated.



Hi Persuader,
very nice colour combo you've got there!
I also like the sabbia interior very much, especially in combination with a grey colour.

I would go for the shields, as they look great, especially at a grey car. Also they go very well with yellow calipers.
With sabbia I wouldn't choose a deviating colour for the stitching and as zzboba said, the 430's interior doesn't need it. But other as him I think black carpets are the right choice, especially as the brown of the carpets never fits perfectly with the brown of the leather.
I would take CF instead of aluminium trim as well, this fits better IMO to grigio silverstone and to the black carpets.
Take the leather headliner as well, it's an cheap option and looks very good.
Before ordering a CF challenge grill (which I don't like and which looks strange at the rear of a F430), I would consider CCM-brakes. Quite expensive, but these brakes are fabulous.
I wouldn't get the electrical seats, I think they are quite useless as the standard seats are adjustable in nearly every direction. But as Nick said, they may be an advantage when selling the car.
