Default Get the Misano red

The interior on the Avus silver looks like a lobster
that would get old over time IMHO..

Lobster on the inside (avus) vs. lobster on the outside (misano) - heh, heh... :-)

Default Friend of mine had the following comment about that interior...

"Interesting, but can you imagine driving around in that with a hangover?"

Default Red is good on the inside when its on satin bedsheets, not car interiors...

Thats what I think..

<center><img src="http://zillamoto.com/images/BrilliandTT_002.jpg"></center><p>Yep, I'm biased, but I like the Avus Silver Pearl. The Silver is not "bright" like the Lake Silver or VW Silver Arrow. In fact when I first saw it quickly driving by the dealer I thought it was Aviator Grey which I always admired, but then thought no, ...that's silver! Was best of both worlds for me as the exterior color seems a bit different shade depending on whether it is sunny outside or not. The red interior is a beautiful contrast.

...I do like the Misano Red exterior, just was worried about those silver leather seats getting discolored/dirty looking over time whereas in my experience red tends to "richen" as it ages. Just an opinion though, I'd be happy with either :-)
