Replying to: backy (May 24, 2007 7:08 pm) I don't know why the interiors to cars are so unimaginative these days. I remember the blue interior to my mother's white '66 Monterey, and in the '80s had a white Mercury 2-seater with a red interior! I guess those days are long gone; maybe the black interiors keep costs down if everyone their vinyl or plastic in bulk. I really do favor a lighter interior...tan wouldn't be the end of the world. Thanks again! |

So maybe someday Hyundai will add a little red to their interiors over here. I think you are right on the cost factor--the fewer the interior colors, the simpler (and cheaper) the manufacturing process.

I am looking to purchase an SE or Limited but I gotta have a sunroof! The dealer here has not had even one Elantra with a sunroof or even one Limited on his lot yet. Are these hard to find. Even tho my daughter will be driving this car, my wife will probably have it once in a while when she has to take longer jaunts and with fuel mileage being so crucial now, the SUV is not the best to do high mileage with anymore. So I need a sunroof.

Replying to: backy (May 27, 2007 6:49 am) If you know you are going to be wearing dirty clothes in your car, then do NOT buy one with a light colored interior. That is if you don't like to see dirty seats and/or if you don't like to clean the car or pay to have it cleaned often. Man! Why does buying a car have to be SO hard? You have to think about so many things at once. It is just exhausting! |

I've been using that on all my cars (with fabric interiors of course) for many years, seems to help. * Did you try taking it to a professional (i.e. some place that cleans car interiors)? Any idea how the dirt got on the seat, if not from your clothes? Maybe someone else drove the car? I have seen plenty of "dirty" beige cloth in cars. Just not in mine.
