Tartan singer?

Look closer at that "fabric"

Yeah, I noticed that in another thread, which had pictures. Like the rest of the cars they've "Reimagined", it's really a thing of mechanical beauty!

Wow that looks really cool in that weave but I think its a little overdone and hard to look at, i'd prefer it in much smaller areas.

Outside is fine, inside looks like something John Daly would drive.

I love it. It's not traditional but these days that's cool. And if I were to pay that kind of cash for a car it better stand out.

That fabric should have been made as an accent, not as a whole interior. Would have looked great that way, one of the times when less is more.

The weird shape of Singer's interior door pull needs to be reimagined again too. It really hurts the eye.

From a design perspective it's cool but a little too "current". The 70's are coming back whether you like it or not. But after a few years I think I'd tire of it, kind of like having Avacado Green and Harvest Gold appliances in your house in the 90's.

Could have been a custom interior requested by the new owner but not my cup of tea.

Overkill.

Is it little strips of leather woven into a pattern?



I bet that cost a few bucks.

Like everything Singer do that legit basket weave leather but I'm not sure how well the seats will wear.

And how many people will ever daily drive that car?

Personally I don't care for the tartan or that green color. I guess I just won't buy that car.

Only two things I don't approve of on that particular car. The GT stripes are way too busy in cream and orange. Cream only would have looked a little better, I think. I like the houndstooth weave a lot, and the interior is stunning, but I think that when they put it on the dash panel it went too far. I can picture a monochrome version of the houndstooth on the dash in blacks or browns or (maybe) even greens.

I have a similar interior treatment minus the weaved leather(mine is just fabric) and it makes me want to backdate to the aluminum trim so I can add the fabric to that. I really like it.

I've always felt the same way.

Anyone know what the thing is on the left rear seat?

Weird. Opened the thread expecting something along the lines of this.

Though I would have preferred a bit less of the absolutely stunning woven leather tartan interior, there are really only two things I don't like about the car.

1. Don't like the headlights.
2. It's not mine... This one is the part I especially hate.

Overall, this is utterly fantastic.
