Titanium Gray with Chapparral... how does it look?

I ordered a Titanium Gray RX8 with Black Leather and was to pick it up today. The Dealer just called and said the dealer switch didn't happen. They found one with Chaparrel Leather. How does this combination look? I haven't seen one with this combo.

Instead of waiting for someone to post pix, you might want to check it out in the Gallery section, there are quite a few who's got that combo.

good luck

I think that the titanium grey and chapparal interior is the most attractive of the color combinations offered on the RX-8. I had that combination on my RX-8. When I replace it with a new RX-8 in the future, I want to get the same combination.

It also seems to be a relatively rare color combination, at least according to my dealer. He said that of the 40 plus cars allocated so far, only 2 had that combination. There are lots of all black interiors. The chapparal is more scarce.

I think titanium with black/chaparral leather is a great combo. As it was said, you will find pictures of it in the Multimedia section here.
If I could have a sunroof in my car, I'd definitely go with the GT and this exact color combination.
Go for it - you'll like it.

I have that combo aswell. The Titanium Black with Cognac color scheme is quite nice. Feels warm inside.

I changed vehicles in order to get an earlier delivery and it has this combination. I hadn't selected it but I am very glad it came this way. It is a very good looking package and has drawn lots of compliments. It is a lilttle unusual and that is part of its attraction.

I have it and have gotten so many compliments on it. It looks sporty yet classy, and I will be able to age gracefully with it. For me, red was a little loud.

brothervoodoo, do you do a lot of photography professionally or something because those pics you provided looks like they belong in an RX8 catalogue man... very nice.

I have the Titanium Gray with Chaperral leather. It looks great and I get a lot of compliments, and looks. In sunlight the titanium looks more silver, but in darker light it looks dark gray. The brown interior goes great with it. This photo was taken on a really sunny day. When we get a cloudy day here in Dallas, I'll post some better photos.
