I had to have the red with red and black, my test drive car was also red but with chapparel and it turned me off, it's like the amber corners to me, it just doesn't seem to go and creates a clash in my mind.

Computer moniters do not accurately present true color. One has to see the car--preferably in several different "light" settings. Velocity Red leans to the yellow side of red. Chapparal brown interior also decidedly more yellowish brown than reddish brown. I work with color a lot. To my eye, "too yellow" is the reason the chapparal doesn't go well with Velocity Red----along the same premise as combining a tomato with pumpkin pie. The two colors do not meld, nor complement; they clash.

In the 05's, I've read here, Mazda went with Taupe interior. Taupe is a reddish brown and will very likely be a good complement with all exterior colors offered in 05.

What he said... two on the left are mine.. I like less chapparel (inserts) rather than all tan in my baby... but other one (Ferrari) is pretty OK looking too
