I've had my 500 Street twin air for over a year now and I still love taking it for a drive in my spare time however I considered upgrading to the new 500 S. I was playing around with the configuration for the 500 and chose the awesome looking electronica blue colour which requires you to change the interior inserts from red to blue which is fine by me. However when I moved into the interior view I noticed that the wheel/gear gater stitching was still red along with a few other features. This looks abit odd to me and I was wondering if it just a glitch in the configuration image?

I have an S, and yes, the gear stick cover has a red stripe, and the steering wheel has red stitching, doubt that you can change that.
seems to be the way it is, a bit weird alright, check out below:

Interestingly that ad describes the colour as "Metallic White" - but then it is an Irish dealership
.The interior looks far better on the actual car in terms of contrasting colours. Looks abit strange on the configuration image

steady now
Looks like its standard, shame you can't choose the interiors you want.
Fiat is not the only company that screws up, I was also looking at 208 GTI, horrible red patches in the interior.
Cheers Dave that's good to hear. I'm going with the electronica blue + blue interior anyway

I have the 500 sport in cream. Everyone, bar my brother, commented as to why the seats were blue when the details in the front are red. I did start doubting my choice.
And as PsFiat mentions there are quite a few red details.
Anyways, I have now got use to the contrast of the blue (only had the car for 2 weeks) and I'm so glad I went for the blue option. And I'll also point out the car looks bad ass!!
The car attracts a lot of attention and get waves from fellow 500 owners.
The interior really doesn't look as ghastly as it does on the configeration.
Hope that helps

I think the 500 S looks like a proper sporty 500 compared to the old sport model or my Street model. Don't get me wrong I love my 500 in electroclash grey with black alloys but it's not at good looking with the rounded bumpers. Another plus is that you can get the new 500 S with the 105 bhp twin air, the engine I love but with more power
