Default Interior trim colour with Graphite exterior?

I'm thinking of buying a X-fire in Graphite. But don't know if to go with the two-tone interior or not. Any advice / pictures I can compare?

Thanks.

Thanks. I've just ordered mine today.

Ordered the Graphite, Auto with single -tone dark leather. The two-tone option gives you a lighter two-tone dash as well which when viewed next to the all dark dash didn't look as nice in my opinion. each to their own though.

I also got them to add on the rear boot security cover. As when I'm travelling with work and have a laptop in the boot I don't want people to be able to see it. The list price for this option is ’350 though !!!! All it is is a pull out blind basically. I got the dealer to pay for half of it :-)

I should pick it up on the 19th June. (I test drove the manual and actually quite liked it. It was a bit rough but made the engine more noisy which I liked. However wanting best of both worlds I drove the auto again afterwards using the tip-tronic and could achieve the same results as well as having the easier drive if I wanted so went for the auto.

Sure wish we could get this over this side of the pond.

When I pick it up I'll take some pictures and post it so you can see what this boot cover is. Having previously owned a BMW Z3 M Coupe which had this as standard I couldn't believe it wasn't an option. But after forcing my dealer to check his computer he eventually found it. He went to check in their parts department and as it turned out they had one being fitted to someone elses XFire whilst I was there. So I popped into the garage and had a look.

I've got a Graphite coupe with the two-tone interior and I think it helps make a small vehicle seem larger. It also really helps the features of the interior stand out (in my opinion).

Check out this link http://www.chrysler.com/crossfire/fe...ery/index.html

and click on the last image. It will give you an idea, even though that's the Roadster.

Yeah, I've got two-tone in my RSX. It's actually the same colors as the Crossfire's Grey/Ebony two-tone mix. It really adds some dynamics to the interior, and out of the Crossfires I've been in, the grey/ebony two-tone is definitely the most appealing to the eye in that it doesn't draw huge amounts of attention and that it isn't totally stark.

I'd go with the grey/ebony two-tone in an Crossfire, to put it simply. Aero Blue with ... I guess it's slate, not grey/ebony, two-tone.
