I've finally decided that I'm getting the Alfa Romeo GTV. It's impractical and has a tiny back seat but I guess you're only young once.

I'm leasing with an option to buy at the end, with a PRETAX novated lease, which is the only reason it became affordable for me - tax savings and all that.

Anyway, I can't decide what colour to get, I can either get one of the following:

Red exterior with natural (tan) leather interior:

Or...

Black exterior and red leather interior:

I LOVE the black exterior with red interior, but I'm a bit worried that it might be a LITTLE over the top.

The red exterior and tan interior is probably more tasteful, but it's kind of common. I *could* also get the tan interior with the black, probably more tasteful, but when I saw the red leather interior with the black exterior I fell in love with it - it makes the car look like a brothel on wheels. Can't go wrong with black cars.

What do you guys think? Once I decide I'm locked into my lease for three years and that's it. Opinions please!!!
