It's like a burgundy colour with cream leather and a wooden steering wheel and shifter (all stock lol). Really leaning hard into that trying to be a 60s British sportscar aesthetic.

My last car was a 645Ci with that loving N62 engine that dumped the coolant as I was driving it, had a coil spring shear literally hours after I was cruising at 130mph down the motorway and had it's valve stem seals deteriorate enough to try and gas me every time I touched the throttle pedal. I mean, ain't no replacement for displacement, but gently caress me I should've named the drat thing Christine.

Yeah they're a bit marmite. Thankfully it comes with the originals, the ones fitted are for winter tyre duties.

good color. There's a BMW Z1 next to my block in exactly the same color, and I wan't it, but the owner won't sell. Good color. Tony Marshal drove a BMW 8series in that color (the interior leather was the same color), it looked/still looks cool. Did I mention that this is a good color? Color good.

I use batting gloves for karting. This is for handling 30 year old leather steering wheels and not wanting half of it coming off on my hand after 2 hours of driving.
