I have a black 02. I chose the black interior. I think the simpler the better. I had a 90 with a black interior for eight years and never got tired of it.

Go with the 'Mod Red'. You will not regret it. (IMHO) It's beautiful. :yesnod:

Fot what it's worth (=$.02), I had Torch in a Torch 2000 ragtop, looks great and is real nice for a while, then you start to notice the stains on the carpet, and after 18 months you get really sick of the red and the red and black wheelskin, and the shift boot, and the floor mats, and the shift ****, and the seat covers. GIVE ME A BREAK from RED RED RED, I now have a very sedate black on black Z06, I am at one with the car, I can relax and enjoy the ride. As I said $.02

Good luck with whatever you choose, its the ride that counts.
:crazy:

Jeff -- I can relate to that. Red on Red has always been a bit much for me, too. But the Z06 Mod Red interior, primarily black with red accents, is just right, IMHO. Its very much like the red/black interior option of our 96 Grand Sport. But each to his/her own.

The Mod Red looks absolutely fantastic in our Electron Blue.

I had a '92 with red out and black in. Then a '95 with red on red. It was a nightmare to keep clean inside! I went back to red out / black in for my 2002.
