Individual Leather Options?

I'm looking to pull the trigger on a '25 individual build - Santorin Blue, but I can't decide on interior colors!

My go to - Black with Midrand Beige two tone. The wife isn't a fan of beige, so we're on the fence about this choice.

The wife likes the black on black, but I feel like it's a waste since these cars have two tone leather.

My last F95 had the Sakhir Orange interior, which I loved, but it was a white car. I don't want to end up with the "Superman" red on blue color combination.

On to my question: Has anyone done a custom leather order on these cars? I'm thinking of black with red highlights. Basically have the accent color and/or the stitches be red/Sakhir Orange. (Basically an inverse version of the sakhir orange)

Has anyone done something like this? Is it worth it? As it stands, I've got a May allocation but won't see the car until July. Not looking to delay it any further..

I don't think you can do individual interiors on these cars made in the US, at least you couldn't on the pre-LCI variants.

If a custom leather could be done. My favorite would be an inverse of the Silvertone with Black being the main color and the silvertone being the striping on the seats and doors.

Personally, if you're going with Santorin Blue as your exterior you have 3 options for interior Black with Midrand Beige, Silvertone and Black, but the full merino black.

OP, have you considered Adelaide (probably spelled this wrong) gray as an international color option?

I know what you mean about avoiding the super man combo. That wouldn't suit my taste, either. I too agree it would be a waste to get a solid interior color, since there are two tone options available.

I went with Adelaide gray 3 years ago when specing my '22 X6MC because I felt the smokey gray and black would contrast well with a blue exterior, while not requiring as much maintenance as a mostly white interior.

Still happy with my color combo, to this day.

I've got the black alcantara/midrand, by whatever name they call it, and it looks a little different than I envisioned from pictures and video.

To my eye the midrand looks lighter, it's also a fairly yellow beige with that yellow popping more in person than I expected.

I'm just bringing that up if you haven't gone eyes on yet, and it could just be me, so an FYI.
