Hello folks,

I currently have a 96GL with tan cloth seats. I'm currently looking for tan leather, but I know that 95 seats are the best, and then I read some posts that SVT seats are really comfy as well so I was wondering if anyone knew how many SVTs came with tan leather?

I found this SVT on ebay that has tan leather and it was the first I had ever seen.

I'm holding out for some good leather to come this way, but if I can get some SVT seats then that'd be wicked.

Thanks.

There were alot of SVT's that came with tan leather. They started offering it in 99. I've got it in mine!

Tan leather was first offered in 1999 and became the only color interior offered for T-red and Tropic Green SVTs for 99-2000. Also for those years, black had the option of either tan or blue, and Silver Frost only had blue interior.

However, I don't know if Prairie Tan is the same color interior as the tan offered on pre98 Contours. I know the blues and grays between pre98 and 98+ are different shades. Sometimes it's not a noticeable enough difference to matter (for example, I put a pre98-colored dome light bracket in my Greystone interior) but with seats you may want to verify before ordering.

I have tan leather, and I am glad. I think that Midnight blue is a horrible color. Why not just make it black already?


Tan interiors on red cars are just tits.

Here here

I have seen too many variations of MB. Some look purple, some are dark like black, some are right at blue, but I tell ya, when I saw that purple look I didn't want any Contour with that interior. Besides tan to me seems like a classy/luxury color like something that would be in a Mercedes.

Favorite color combo - T-red with MNB ... second favorite color combo .. black with tan ... third favorite .. green with tan

any other color and combo just looks mismatched to me (yes, even T-red with tan).
