CFTP smoked grey seat accents

[Tomster]

Does anyone know if you can get any other color than smoked grey for the recaro seat accents? I think that color doesn't go with my color combo of rapid red and painted on black stripes. I was hoping for just a black seat or maybe I could live with red accents.

Maybe in 2021.

I think the seats look good with Rapid Red.
Certainly could be better but I would be happy with it.

So it seems that there is no way around this. I am and will be happy with it.

I really don't get DCT backlash from the community. If they went traditional 6-speed, the numbers wouldn't be as good and then they'd haveta hear about that.

How can trickle down supercar technology be a deal breaker? The real deal breaker is those seats!

Nice to see the forum is catching up with me...

The 2020 Shelby GT500 only offers smoked grey accents for the Recaro seats.

Yes, I have concluded that from a call to ford performance today. As @obspsd pointed out, it is a take it or leave it deal. I am thankful to have it.

Thank you for your presenense on this forum.

So the seats aren't going to have the white accents? Or white on base and grey on CFTP?

The recaro sport seats as seen in many press pictures will have the smoked grey accents.
The sport seats are an add-on either standalone or included in the CFTP.

As for the base (non recaro sport) seats, I believe they are solid black leather trimmed seats with no accent colors, but I do not recall.

There's only one color, it's Smoke[d] Gray, it's a very light gray, so any variants you see are just differences in lighting/angle/photos (sometimes it looks almost white).

Its good to see someone from Ford on the forum again.

Maybe you know why the 500 was limited to 180 MPH?

The Base and Recaro are Ebony (Black) with grey accents. Can be verified on VOC

I'll just go ahead and bold the important part...

I ordered Iconic Silver so the seats look good to me. I didn't get the Recaros because I like the heated and cooled seats.
