Heza Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 ok, so it's been a while since i've posted on this site, but i'm fairly confident i know more about '88-97 w-bodys than atleast 91.4% of this site. so, out of randomness (and a TALL gin cocktail) i have one question pertaining to these years... what in the hell was GM (and Ford and Chrysler) doing with the nasty nasty ass maroon interiors in the late 80s and early 90s?!?!?!? yes, do chime in...i finally made a new thread and my curiosities are running rambunctious!!!

RobertISaar Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 <---- 83 El Camino with maroon interior.... so i would say early 80s at least. not my favorite choice. Quote
88red4cyl Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 They must've gotten a deal on the material.. Quote
89GP_SE Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 I love the maroon interiors. I think we are a little biased as we both have maroon interiors Quote
Twenty Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 I love the maroon interiors. I think we are a little biased as we both have maroon interiors Shhh.... Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 I like my maroon interior, I think it looks classy. But if I didn't have leather maroon seats, I'd rip out the cloth ones. I'd rip out any cloth interior regardless of color. Quote
88red4cyl Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 i hate leather. x2... Leather is almost a deal breaker for me... Quote
cubsfan24 Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 I am rocking a maroon interior in my 96 Lumina. About the only good thing about it is that it looks almost brand new because it does not show dirt. Quote
ZoomZoomFan Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 i hate leather. I always thought it was great, but honestly I like the cloth seats of my Mazda way better than the leather in my Grand Am. Leather is always slippery and too hot or too cold. Quote
bodeen2007 Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 i miss my 79 buick lesabre with my red vinyl interior Quote
logikf1ve Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Black/Graphite > Tan > Light Gray > Maroon. Leather is nice when it's good quality. I like it in the summer. Hate it in the winter. Quote
Night Fury Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 I love leather. And Switch tan and light grey above, and that's my preference Quote
ManicMechanic Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 The white leather in the GMs seem to be better quality than other leathers. I did like the white leather in terms of looks but not comfort. I prefer cloth. Quote
KingVee Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Maroon interior is absolutely atrocious for my eyes... Leather is a thing that has been growing on me at an alarming rate recently. I have yet to sit in a GM car that has leather, but I've sat in a few other cars with it (more recently my cousin's 06-07 Passat) and I just love it so far. Tan leather *drools* Quote
3pt1lumina Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 HATE leather that isn't heated in the cold but LOVE it in warm weather. I have a couple of cars with red interiors, they don't bother me too much. Quote
CSI_MuNkY Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 My personal preference... Black/Graphite > Light Gray > Tan > Maroon/Seafoam (I can't decide which one I dislike more) I generally hate leather too. Too hot in the summer, sold rock in the winter. I swapped out my leather seats for cloth and put ugly ass seat covers on, I still like it better than the leather. I will one day get the seats all recovered to match each other in decent cloth Jamie Quote
RobertISaar Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 heated and cooled leather is nice.... Quote
Garrett Powered Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 well I don't have to worry about red interiors. no AQ9s were made with that color that I am aware of. don't have to worry about ever finding a nice set of graphite leather AQ9s either because they are too rare and the leather always falls apart. but that is what I really want. Quote
jeremy Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 red interior is horrible.....it wouldn't stop be from buying the car, but a complete interior swap out would immediately be on the top of the to do list... Quote
Brian P Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 well I don't have to worry about red interiors. no AQ9s were made with that color that I am aware of. don't have to worry about ever finding a nice set of graphite leather AQ9s either because they are too rare and the leather always falls apart. but that is what I really want. I've seen them (red ones), in a '92 Cutlass Quote

Oldsmobile had red AQ9s. Quote
rockfangd Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 all i can say is i have never cared for red. My 91 beretta had red interior Quote
