BINGO.

Leather cleaner or no leather cleaner. Leather will darken overtime.

Tan is an earth tone so as it darkens from oils from your hands, dirt, etc. it will become a darker shade of tan.

Red is going to become tan or just plain dirty looking where you grab it the most. It is a showcar color and not very practical.

And I don't feel like putting on driving gloves everytime I drive to the convience store.

Red inserts it is

Red it is for me. Of course the decision is made for us in Australia. Red and black is the only leather combo for silver, titanium, black and red whilst black/black is what you get for yellow, blue and green (leather packs obviously).
I saw the red/black at the Melbourne Motor Show. Absolutely stunning.

Talking

Well have to say Black/Black. Mainly for the cleaning purposes and kids. Another reason I am leaning towards the Titanium color instead of the Black. When Black is clean, IMO it is the prettiest car in the world. Keep in mind I have not had the chance to see them in person. There is some something about that Titanium making me smile. Plus I love to see the accents off the car stand out a little more.

or you could make it easier on yourself and just get plain black cloth. easier to manage AND you won't have to worry about that color! less money too!:D

thanks guys, i decided to stick with my original choice, the red on black interior, i feel that it suits the subtle titanium exterior the best and it gives the interior a tastefully flashy, yet easily bearable mood, and it spices it up with just enough color contrast.
