interior options

[chrisisg77]

I really dont like the interior of the Mk3 lol. I know this is a 80s car and was probably big pimp back then. Anyways so far im thinking of redoing my whole interior black. I Just wanted to know what you guys think of black interior for those who have it black. What other options are there for interior. I heard of the recaro inserts.
Pics of your guys interior would be awesome !

Black interior looks good on our cars. As does blue, gray (light or dark), or even the tan/brown that came in it. Unless you're one of those unfortunate souls who got the truly 80's burgundy interior... in which case I sympathize with you sir.

I have burgendy. It's awful haha, the shitty part is its in MINT and I mean MINT condition. I'd love to go tan someday but they're so hard to find it seems.

Iirc leather seats.com or something sells black covers. There is thread of step by step that is pretty recent.

The 88 burgundy has started to grow on me...

Trade for mine

Black would be nice.

I believe the MK3's interior will look good in any color as long as it's not faded. I redid mine in black several years ago and really like the results. Maybe you can get a few ideas from my interior refresh thread:

There are some people who do fast, there are some people who do nice. Seems you might be one of the people more in that latter camp (at least until you're done making it nice, then start with the fast), but I couldn't be happier to see that. Still an inspiration to me, and part of the reasoning I'm glad my 87 still has all the original sound deadening in place. I really only wanna hear a low roar when I get on the loud pedal unless my windows are down.

I love the burgundy. Sell me your interior and use my money to buy new stuff.
I know it's an age thing, just has to be, but back in the 80's, burgundy was everywhere and as those burgundy cars go, the supra is a decent rendition of it. I know peeps will jump my case about this but since the cars were new, i have always thought that the blue leather was so ugly it borders on comical. Not that there are many burgundy cows around, but at least burgundy is in the earth tone range. Blue leather is so unnatural my mind just can't wrap around it.

I love the burgundy interior as well and would love to buy some mint condition pieces if the chance ever presented itself.

There are some people who do fast, there are some people who do nice.

I'd like to think I fall in both categories.

You and me both. I'm in the process of restoring my 86.5 na so it excels at disappointing in both categories. I like to tell people that it may not look very nice but at least it's slow as Hell.

I'm the same way. I can easily see why the burgundy would be visually repellent to younger people. It just has a very dated look. Very 70s/80s. But as a child of the 80s, that's exactly what I DO like about it. So while I can certainly recognize that the burgundy is dated and not particularly 'beautiful' or desirable to most, I love it and appreciate it for what it is: Pure 80s goodness!

 

[chrisisg77]

MarkIII thats badass i love it. Im going to do the exact same thing thanks!
Thank you guys for your opinions!

 

[DOUBL3 D]

If someone can trade me for a tan interior I'm down. No fade, rips, or cracks here!

 

[morganson]

I love my burgandy interior. One day when I have more money than sense ill freshen it up with some oxblood leather. But until then I'm happy with what I got.

 

[sixtyten6010]

Idk about you guys with the other burgundy interiors but the later years' Deep Red looks pretty slick, nice and dark kinda... lol.

 

[MarkIII4Me]

^
Ahhhh! The memories!

J/k, to each their own. I've seen awesome looking fabric oxblood interiors in old Supra brochures, but
anything I've seen in my time looks old and faded. I had no choice but to change mine.
