Default Black vs Cinnamon Brown

Trying to decide between the two interior colors. Right now settled on Lava Grey exterior with dark wood inserts (Premium). Never had brown leather before, so I wonder if it's more difficult to maintain than black and whether I might get tired of it sooner than black! Also, trying to stay away from vehicle looking too sporty - it'll be a family car with kids, so have to consider that fact too. Any advice is appreciated. Pros/cons?

If anyone can post pictures of their Cinnamon brown interior, that'll be awesome! I'm having a hard time finding photos online other than from brochure.

The links afretes posted very accurately depicts the cinimon. The test vehicle at my dealer had the cinimon seats and they look just like this. It is a love it or hate it color of leather. I happen to love it, my wife is the exact opposite... we went with black, needless to say. Some disagreements aren't worth fighting. Talk with your dealer and see if they have a sample board for you to look at. It is a big commitment, so make sure you love the color.

"Always bet on black!" ...for a classic, consistent look in your interior. It's easier to clean and maintain (and heaven forbid repair!) More people will be interested in a black interior when it comes time to sell.

Admittedly, I love the cinnamon interior, but it's black FTW! Especially on Lava Grey!

Here's some more shots:



Sometimes, I wish I gotten black instead. Why you ask. Because it's easier to find a built in DVD/Screen player in a black headrest.

If you're note getting Sline then your interior color options are wide open. I bought my cinnamon brown interior off the catalogue had no clue what it would look but it was the best decision I made. It makes the car unique and when it comes to selling it, some people might pay more to have a unique interior. But if you want to be safe, of course black is the way to go.

Black is much easier to resell when it comes time, and it matches all the other trim pieces.
