My BMW is black with oatmeal leather and that works very well,just took the car for a spin and the colour is growing on me,the o/h likes it so i suppose that's all that counts! At the end of the day with the age 406's are getting to i could probably pick up a black interior if needed at a reasonable price,one went on ebay last week for just over £100,i've a sales brochure from 2003 and the exec in that colour came with that colour trim as standard as far as i can make out and the other colours were options.

I don't mind it, the lighter coloured seats are easier to see, the only problem is the tan colour doesn't have matching tan carpets or headlining like the cream does, although black carpets are much more practical.

No, but if you look up the Settantini coupes, you'll find that it is possible to get the lower dash in a matching colour to it.
