Thank you for the kind words. Do you have a picture of that blue color seats? The interior is all black in black and the seats are the recaro rz seats. I was considering having them retrimmed in red or black but now you've brought something interesting up!

I did a quick search for Ferrari Blue race seat and Ferrari sure has had a thing for Blue seats throughout the years regardless of paint color that I never noticed before.

1960s 250 GTO

1970s Dino

1980s Testa D'Oro Colani

2017 F12tdfDSKL


Blue is the most fade resistant color...

Prettiest mid-60s Vette I’ve ever seen had a blue interior. It was yummy.

I've never​​​​ been happier. Brand new engine rebuild from IRP and newly installed Shine side skirts and rear diffuser. I'm loving this car all over again.

Beautiful shot right there - MB reminds me so much of Baltic Blue on my MKIV. Perhaps not the most popular color these days, but very period specific.

Looks great large on the screen- I have to remember this composition for a screen saver shot. All the crap will be on the upper Left with FD in the clear LOL.

Its a pic thread so don't be shy to go back into your post with an edit to put your pics up big! My opinion anyways.
