I'm going to split my vote between the red leather from the old Volvo 740s...

.. And the old blue pinstriped velour from the early Volvo 740s. There's just something classy about a blue interior. (Both pictures are my former cars, and I want both of them back...)

I'm still a fan of the bright red leather of the 80s.

Blue, but really anything but all black.

Oh gods, yes... Bright red leather!!! Also, bright red cloth is pretty amazing, too.

Why limit yourself to one color when you can have Interlagos Plaid.

Also, although hideous, nothing is more comfortable than sitting on a velour couch while driving.

That is the greatest, most turquoise thing I have ever seen. Congratulations, sir!

Now, that interior, on a turquoise car...

Hey, I've had three cars with velour interiors, and I loved all of them to sit in. There's just something awesome about it, you know?

Plaid, Tartan or Houndstooth.

While this picture doesn't accurately represent the condition of my 1986 RX7 GXL's interior, it does show of the oh-so-80's blue on blue color scheme that I loved so much.

Anything that isn't boring-ass black or gray.

Blue, red, purple, pink, beige/tan, brown, they're all good.

Yes!!! That is definitely 80s! That also reminds me of my black FC convertible that I sold to pay tuition, my last semester of college. I still miss those spinning triangles.

Atacama always struck me as being a little bit weird. It either works beautifully or not at all...

Wrap it up, folks. Skychismo nailed it and we're done here.

How '90s is that? Very.

The Citroën's seats look so comfortable.

What about a satiny paisley brocade cloth couch just like your grandma had when you were growing up?

I remember the seats on my Sister's 87 740, they were so nice. The same interior as the one in your original post. It was silver with blue interior , which was two of the reasons my bother was able to convince her to buy it. The rear headrest was like laying your head on a Peep, except not so sticky.

I'm a huge fan of the red interior in the ATS:

Red without being ridiculous, and the darker red is great with neutral colors (probably not so much with the pictured red car).
