Persimmon interior thoughts??????

So while everyone is mainly going with red/black for the interior of the car I was thinking a little different route. I love the persimmon interior of the 370z. What do you guys think?

Clazzio seat covers in persimmon
the two door covers/armsills in persimmon

Then everything else in black with black stitching: shift boot, knee pads, speaker covers, cluster hood cover, and maybe the entire center console done with black on black.

The only two things id have to really switch out after that are the floor mats which i could do weathertech and then the steering wheel would be the biggest concern too.

But does anyone want to photoshop what that may look like and thoughts maybe on that interior with the raven color?

I can't be the only guy here who has no idea what "persimmon" is...I assume it's a color. Got some pics of this interior from the Z?

The brz had a very similar interior done. So this gives me an idea of what it could look like but i don't plan to have the color stitching or speaker surrounds. Just black.

If id be able to just buy those seats that would be awesome. ..but never going to happen

you could probably get the seats done with a katzkins kit (usually around $1400 or so installed) and have JPM do up the rest with the orange stitching

LOL. That's probably the biggest thing I dislike about the Z. Now if you were talking saddle tan that would be a different story.

I'm too computer illiterate to transpose pictures. Just google saddle tan leather and you'll see several different shades but you'll get the idea. It's a lot like the persimmon in the Z car but a softer shade.

I'd personally love to see something like Audi's Nougat Brown:



Or chestnut brown:


Never thought I'd like brown seats but they just look so good to me now for some reason.
