beautiful looking interior, the first car i remember riding in was a 1960's mercedes 200 diesel and it was in mint condition with a white exterior and bright red interior, it was owned by my dads friend and it was beautiful but i was like 5 years old so i dont remember much. So the white on red sure looks awesome i love it
