Lovely!

Nice touch with the P1 seats.

Not too sure about the centre console though....

And what it on the dash???? WRC look?

The best colour though, and the best choice of wheels for the car too!

Thats how it comes on the "limited" versions guys. You get the blue centre, blue dial surround and normally blue seats ( which these have been changed, obviously )!!!

Stunning motor if you ask me have you been brave and whacked it into full rear wheel drive yet mate???

This looks like a Version 5 Ltd. They came with std STI seats and grey console as std. You only got the blue console and speedo bezel with the Version 6 Ltd's, so I assume that's where it's from, or it's really a 6 with a V5 rear spoiler....

The centre console on the V6 is the same colour as the dash dial insert, I think people are just picking up on the centre being brighter blue than normal thats all...Looks a really nice motor- shame about the pro-drive seats though - orginals look the dogs in light blue...

Nice alloys though also..

Thing is mate the original front seats don't have totally matching back seats to go with them. At least the Prodrive seats have only a small amount of blue with the rest contrasting nicely with the back seats.

We all have opinions of course. If I was to please everybody here the car would look like a rainbow!

Nick

edited to say the last paragraph is a joke - so not to provoke too many serious people!

Matter of personal opinion I suppose, but I think the V Ltd Blue seats are absolutely repulsive!!!!

scooby - completly agree m8 - your happy with your interior and thats all that "really" matters...each to their own...

Tas - As for me I like the standard blue seats - i also like the standard integra red seats - i just like standout seats...in fact i like the prodrive seats also but i aint telling my bro who has the P1 to go with the seats..lol

Fair points Kane...

I too like the ITR Recaros, purely cos they are so outlandish and red actually is sporty.

IMO, the blue shade that was used in the V Ltd seats is horrible... very pastel! Changing rooms would love them!

I'm surprised you haven't heard it!! Although I try to keep it down a bit when I'm around there. Are you going to the meeting on Sunday at Markeaton?

Hi skoobidude/Jason


I take it the wheels are OZ prodrive 18"? What tyres are you running and what size, any rubbing as I am about to order the same wheels for my 4 door STi 6

Cheers

Adrian
