Default F-Type Convertible with Red Seats

Hello, can someone post me a photo of your F-type with red seats. It is so hard to clearly understand what the red looks like. Sometimes the red looks sort of like a deep red and on other photos it looks like a bright cherry red. I am guessing it has to do with whether its a sunny day or not? Can someone please upload a photo of their red seats? Thanks

It also has a lot to do with the camera (or smartphone) and the monitor you are viewing the picture on. You have to see it in person to see what it really looks like.

Fair point. I did and my 2017 build is even ordered for red premium seats, but I forgot :P Guess its time to go back to the dealer. My build hasn't started yet and I am tempted to change the seats to Cirrus performance sport seats, instead of the red. Ordered a Storm Grey F-Type S convertible, but I am scared the red is just too bright.

The red is perfect, I wouldnt have considered an F with any other interior. The two-tone is a bit more subtle if you need compromise.

The included pic is a great example of the tone. Far from lipstick, A classic red, like BMW Imola.

This is satellite grey with the red interior: Of course it looks brighter when the top is down. It is not as bright as Porsche red interior.

Yep; that's basically it.

Thank you guys!! I feel confident in my choice now. I am looking forward to my storm grey with red interior. ETA , Late October :P The suspense is killing me. Really love the look of the car. I saw the attached photo below and it sold me on the car.

One thing I noticed is that in UK you can get the front headlights without the amber in the headlamp. I wished they offered that option in US.
