Default Ready to buy - should I go for Imola Yellow ?

Decided on TT225 coupe. I had been thinking that
i'd go for Black, or Raven Black if the dealer could get one quickly enough. But the dealer has an Imola Yellow TT sitting in the showroom with all the options I'm looking for (everything except nav). It has the 'nubby' cloth inserts and I was hoping for all leather, but I dont think that is such a big deal. black interior btw.

I think its a great shade of yellow- not too light. but i dunno. I would love the uniqueness of the yellow...for me, *part* of having a TT is that it is so different and the yellow would certainly add to that.

on the other hand, i can't decide if its too flashy', especially compared to black, which imo, makes the TT seem all that more classy. I guess that im also worried that the novelty of the yellow may wear off and i might end up not liking it or worse, thinking it looks cheap. The phrase, "If you're not 100%, then the answer is NO" keeps comming to mind (which i haven't heard since dating in highschool).

any thoughts? anyone else out there have one?

Default Is the interior cloth or Alcantara? suede like?

Whatever color you choose it will be an awesome car. I have the roadster and sometimes long for the lines of the coupe (also handy for long road trips etc)

Go with your gut -- if you have doubts, then have dealer hustle another TT 4U!

Default think it is the leather with the rubber nubs to keep you and stuff! in the seat

I've seen some of them, almost ordered one like it in aviator but was afraid the nubs would dig into me on long drives

taxis are the same color. Unique would be a red or green coupe.
