JDM with BBS rims

I found a pic on my hard drive.

I think this is an S3 or possibly S4 because of the grille, but I could be wrong.

What's strange about it is the seats. They look like leather but they are beige in colour. Possibly this car was for Australia, round '96.



Looks cool, doesn't it??

Joe

Ooops!

Well spotted Eric. I had that pic in a folder with black cars. Now you mention it , for sure it is charcoal.

You can see the darker black of the plastic strip under the window.

No Alan, it was not available here, I've only ever seen black leather interiors.

That car looks non-standard to me, it's been modified. In Japan the interiors were black also. Leather usually came on the topline versions such as the Version L, but I've never seen a JDM one with beige leather.

A late model burgundy like Earl's would have the light interior, but SFAIK leather was not an option on the S3 and S4.

Also the charcoal colour ran from 91-93 or so, not available later.

So this car has non-standard seats, Australian [or US] spoiler, Alcyone hood emblem, later model BBS wheels, US style '96 grille and a custom bumper.

Yeh, modified. Nice, though.

This interior is from a red UK car:


and this one is from a JDM car with the stereo controls on the steering wheel:



The seats look gray rather than black in the JDM one, but that might be a digital photo tone problem. I think they are the same.

The UK interior looks much darker to the eye because the carpet is jet black. Japanese carpets tend to have a hint of the blackberry colour in them, they are not deep black.
