FROST Interior question? whats your say?
 

Hey,

Between the three interiors black, frost and the orange.

Which is most resistant to visible wear and tear and stains? Im not a dirty guy but it looks like the frost interior is impposible to keep clean. its practically white interior correct me if im wrong? Anyone have any negative feedback?

I love frost ... dreamer hates it.

lol :tup:

I'm gonna get flamed for this but never opt for the black if you plan on smoking inside the car.

what color z are you planning on going with? i have a red one with black leather. will it be a everyday driver? that will play a part also with how much traffic the interior will see. my 2 cents, good luck with your choice and post some pics when you do decide

I thought this thread was directed at you, tbh.

:excited:

misleading thread title. lol

There was a Z with a frost interior on the showroom floor at the dealer when I bought mine. The interior was pretty dirty and this was on a new Z. I'm guessing being on the showroom floor it had lots of people including kids getting in and out. Of course a proud Z owner would take much better care of their car but I was surprised how dirty this interior was for a new car.

Don't let Frost in your car. Interior = wet and F'ed. :tup:

:roflpuke2:

I have frost interior, not really having any problems keeping it clean. Honestly it's harder keeping the damned black rubber part of my floor mat clean than my frost white seats. I've had it since Feb 12th and put almost 14,000 miles on it.

DAM!!!! you beat me to it Banning! I saw that thread title and was like oOoOo dont let Frost in your interior... you come away with stains in a frosty color lol:rofl2:

My present car, which isn't a Z, has black leather and while it's held up rather well it gets very hot in the summer months. It's enough to make me reluctant to do black leather again. I know this isn't answering your question, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

My car arrived at the dealers with a black interior (Pearl white). My wife said the black interior felt too much like a cave, and vetoed the purchase. So the dealer swapped interiors with another (blue) Z that had the Frost, so now it's Pearl/w.gray interior. Much more comfortable on hot hot days!

So far (only 3 months) have not had any problems with dirt or cleanliness.

i have had mine only out a few times sitting in direct sun and i notice that it really wasn't that hot with my z having been tinted(35%) on the sides. my concern is this winter siting my asss on the cold leather seat. i know the seats are heated, but still

The dealer swapped the entire interior? For real? LOL, another case for ordering and not buying off the lot.

Buy a remote starter kit!

The Alcantra is nice & snuggly in the cold. We've already had a couple of hard freezes and the seat heaters are getting a workout.

Note: The stock tires get really hard below about 40 degrees, which can lead to some lurid slides (don't ask me how I know this). Last weekend I fitted snow tires on base wheels and put away the sport wheels for the winter. Now the car feels really "loose" as you might expect with all that squishy rubber, but at least I have traction.

Not really a biggie. Door panels & seats. Took 'em a couple of hours.

We really were hoping for the Persimmon interior (orange), but they didn't have any available, nor coming in soon. We were hot to drive, so we settled for the Gray. Not sorry, it does look very classy with the Pearl White.

I have a 6 spd

i won't drive the z this winter that much

mergnthwirker, i have been to hartford and then about 70 to 75 miles do south and i must say it is very beutiful out there

the made fun of how we talked:icon23:

Yeah, I get that too. I'm from Ohio. When I say "our car" it comes out "Aar car" so I take a lot of sh*t

Connecticut has tons of narrow winding back-country roads that are super-fun with the Z. Two weeks ago I drove east-to-west across the state, from Rhode Island (where the leaves were at peak color). All back roads and not a cop in sight. Bliss! The Z is waaay more fun on these kinds of roads than the latest Corvette that I test drove.

Litchfield County FTW!

I have a PG Z with Frost interior. I have had zero problems with it thus far. I marked up the drivers seat pretty good, but everything wiped off with little effort. The frost int. looks great imo. It really pops when you open the doors to get in. The dark window tint goes great with it too.

i have a black z with the frost interior. it stays pretty clean however i noticed my jeans wear off on the seat.

So other the jeans wearing offf on the seat no other issues?? anyone post pictures of their frost interior since its so hard to see in person..?

How 'bout the grayish white leather used in some 350s? Is it available in the 370 lineup? My '04.5 Touring Coupe's got those and they stay clean, no problemo. What are the options in that department for the 370, dudes? Greetings from hot/rainy/muggy Puerto Rico!
And, yes, tinted glass does help a lot in the summer or in warm areas, such as the Caribbean.

I guess frost isnt the first pick for most resistant to wear/tear and stains if your jeans rub off on them?? that cant be good?
