what's up with the "is it too much for daily driver" threads or claims lately.

I have a dark saddle interior in my Premium GT? :shrug:

I think he meant to say that the Saddle trim isn't a premier leather like the Redline.

And for Khyber, I'm more concerned with the increase in thread jacks and complaining without any constructive addition to the thread.

I love it!!! Actually I wish the whole seat was red. We had the red leather interior on our GTO and it got compliments all the time. I would have made sure to get redline seats on my new Mustang but its not offered with the race red exterior.

Id love to get Redline interior , of course none of that is offered on the V6, but I know there are aftermarket companies that can do it. I'm also hoping I could get a set of take offs in Redline from someone or perhaps one of the speciality companies like Steeda, Roush, Saleen.. One question though. How does the Redline Interior hold up day to day? Do Jeans or other pants bleed onto the leather? I'm very curious..

I really thought the leather where I pivot my thigh to get out would rip by now, because the side thigh support gets pinched really bad, but so far not a single sign of wear or stain at almost 5k miles. I'll be wearing jeans more often now that it's freezing, so we'll see after this winter.

Love mine, and so does everyone else that sees it, especially with Magnetic.

I was totally tired of black or gray only, and love old cars with red interiors. My Jeep is a boring black cave inside, didn't want that in my Mustang.

Yeah, that's probably my top choice, Magnetic + Redline ('16 GT convertible), and funny enough I'm more flexible on the exterior than I am the Redline interior!

I've been chatting with my local dealer, sent my rep a couple of links to cars out of state, but he came back with a "I can get this car for you" - '16 GT, ok good, Magnetic, 6-speed manual with the GTPP, perfect ... no Redline? No deal.

FWIW, I think for cars with a really bright exterior color, that's not a "gray scale" (i.e., red, yellow, blue), a black interior works a little better.

I am kind of biased since I had a silver '02 Z06 with a similar red/black interior. I like it, looks cool as hell. A lot of performance cars offer a similar color scheme, it screams speed. So go for it.

Same color combo as my current ride, my S2000, Silverstone + Red/black interior, not the best interior shot, but you can see the red door insert, the seat centers are red (black bolsters and headrests). In the S2K, the red interior also includes red carpet, so it's a pretty good dose of _red_, but I still love it.

I have redline on my magnetic DD and I love it.

I guess im the minority here...

Can't stand red interior, might be due to this.

I had that one, too. French Boudoir Red. I hated it.

This is not that.

Redline is more "brick" than "boudoir," and is elegant, not trashy. I was slow to think I would like it, exactly because I'd had a red Fox interior that looked like crap. (Used car, it was what it was, I didn't choose it.)

Seeing a real Redline, I loved it and changed my order from Saddle the next day.

I think Redline works on a variety of colors, especially including white, silver, magnetic, black and DIB. Klumpikat says it looks good on Ruby; I haven't seen that but have my reservations.

Of all of those, Magnetic and DIB look the best. If I were to order my car over, knowing I was leaving the desert for Idaho, I would get DIB/Redline instead of Oxford/Redline. It's just gorgeous. My favorite of all the combinations.

Definitely. [Almost all] The colors you listed are actually in contention for the exterior for my car: Magnetic, with Black being a _very_ close 2nd, but I'd easily take white or silver as well, if everything else was to my liking, or heck, even if they were a better deal.

I've never owned a blue car (wife had a blue Z3), and I hadn't really considered Blue with Red, just a did a DIY on Ford.com, it's pretty tasty. :cheers:

I like the redline , but it would not look good on a my yellow vert. Has anyone seen the optional black leather c/w yellow stitch? Thinking of ordering this -picture looks good on 2016 Ford site

I love the two tone interiors. I went with ceramic but I think the red is very eye catching. Gives the interior a custom touch.

Yeah, on the Corvette forum we referred to yellow with the red interior as a McDonalds style

I didn't want to derail this thread about Redline, but I did briefly consider yellow with the Yellowjacket interior - with yellow being **YELLOW**, the more minimal stitching in yellow is a pretty sweet combo. I had a yellow Z06, and I loved the color, and it was a big change since I've most stuck with black/silver and metallic grays.

I also thought black with the YJ interior, get the brakes PC'ed yellow, that's a pretty sweet color combo too.
