I'll give mine a 9.5 out of 10 :)

It has a couple of little flaws - things only I notice :crazy:

Default [POLL] What condition is your interior?

Mine has 116K on the car, BUT this is not the original interior. It had medium cognac before, black leather now. 1-10? not sure. it's pretty good. the drivers seat bolster needs re-doing, but i have new black halo panels, carpet is routinely shampooed(by me!) and I do what i can to make it look nice. If someone we're to buy the car, they wouldn't complain about the interior's condition.

My 86 only has 30,000 miles and the interior is near mint! A few scuff marks That I haven't cleaned up yet so I'd have to say mine is about 9.8% :thumbs:

I would say 9.

Only problem is the non-leather side of the driver seat. Lasted only about 10k miles before it looked worn. I understand & have observed this to be a very common problem on C4's.

My seats are perfect. The dash is nice, as is the console (a little fading of the decals). The doors are clean but slightly warped. The carpeting is flat out ugle, faded, loose, and in need of replacement. Which I'll eventually do.

My int is the nicest thing about my car. I had 3 people ask me in the last 2 years when I got the seats redone.. and they're 11.5 years old. I have a 1" wear mark on the carpet by the gas pedal, slight "chipping?" of the coating on the door pull thing, and a few tiny, tiny things that no1 else would ever see. other than that, its schweeeet! I gave me a 9.

Id give it about a 5 or 7.

Definitely need new seats, carpet is fading somewhat, the black bezels and trim have faded and the console and door trim is cracking around a few screws.

But at least the maternal unit will buy these things as christmas presents instead of me having to pay for them.

Mine does not look too good now, but it will after this winter. I will be replacing the seat covers, dash board, driver's side rear hatch switch, driver's side window switch, hood release bezel, center console latch and spring, and shift indicator panel. I can't wait!!

My car is a 95 with 25k miles on it and just about mint inside and out and under the hood. My interior is I guess a 9.5, it has a scratch on the shifter console plate. Is there a spray out there that can fix this? It just scraped off the top coat. I don't want to go out and buy a console plate just for this, even a used one is 125 or more. Maybe a bone yard you can get one cheaper, haven't looked into that yet or swap meet. Thanks for any suggestions also! ;)

I think I win the worst interior prize on this one. I rate it at a generous 1.
"http://community.webshots.com/user/tom35thanniversary" I already replaced the door panels and the carpet and as soon as she gets put up for the winter I am redoing the seats.....More photos to come :rolleyes:
