Thanks for the pics. TR is a great color and I think you're right. It wouldnt look good with KO. How did it look in person with the IOMG?

You're welcome. IOMG with KO was a fantastic pairing. They complement each other very very well.

So classy yet sporty at the same time.

I don’t think it will work. At a minimum you have to see it together.

Brown-beige with red obviously work as seen on many Ferraris but when you move into the orange spectrum you risk ending up with similar result as when moving into the yellow spectrum...

I think I'm going to stick with my original plan and go with IOMG and KO. I really like TR but I like the KO interior better

It's a beautifulI combo.

If you can do a light interior, TR and silverstone would be stunning. I had Sakhir and full silverstone. If you don't mind a bit of weekly maintenance in the form of a quick warm water microfiber cloth wipe down

I've got Silverstone in my YMB M4 now. I love it but just want to switch it up on my next car. I also had an Austin Yellow M4 with SO interior, which was a great combo

Toronto Red G80 with Kyalami Orange Interior

Here you find pictures pf a Toronto Red G80 with a Kyalami Orange interior. Unfortunately the pictures don't really show the combination of both as interior and exterior pictures are quite seperated. Anyway here it is : https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/d...e-7ac22fb35c91

Seeing car's exterior and interior at the same time is so rare i think you could mix any color that you want.... the only way to see both is on pictures, and it could be shocking, but you are never going to open the door, walk a few steps back and check that combo very often ...

I mean, Ronald McDonald combo is not all too far of from the SPY/YAS combo... Sometimes you just have to sad F-it.

In terms of TR/KO, I'm sure a target employee somewhere rocked the exact same combo, don't pretend you're better than them.

I ordered TR without looking at it. Have been wondering if I will like it. Can't wait to see it in person

I didn't get a chance to see one in person either. It's very dynamic. From a distance it can pass for a traditional red, but at different angles and lighting it's interesting. I'm very happy with it

My top two exterior color choices are IOMG and TR. My top interior choice is KO, but I'm not sure it goes great with either exterior color. I've seen pics of IOMG with KO, and it looks pretty good, but it's hard to tell from pictures. If you've seen it in person, what do you think?

And I think I know the answer to this, but how do you think TR and KO would look together?
Do you! Sounds unique. Don't take anyones advice on color. You have guys on this forum saying Toronto red is to orange for them then proceed to buy fire orange.

That’s because TR is nearly bordering on orange

I have TR and KO. It is a lot to chew on if you will...love it though. Wanted to keep it subtle.

Here you go, bunch of pics in different lighting.
KO and TR is a tough one LOL

I'm a fan of bold colour combos on my vehicles, I did see KO in person on the IOMG M3 when it made the unveiling rounds late last year. It's definitely more orange than brown. I personally don't think it will jive well with TR.

I'm saying that because TR is more orange and KO is also more orange but both are a different shade of orange side by side, would look odd IMHO.

TR/KO would be fine. Love KO interior, really livens up the interior. Do it!
