Default Red and Black Interior

I am thinking of getting a Silverstone with red/black interior. How sensetive are the red leather inserts and the carpet to dirt, etc.? Does the red leather age faster?

Thanks,

I've got the full red interior and the leather still looks great after 3 years.

The red leather is perfectly fine, just as durable as black. (edit - that is, over time you will get creases in the leather in areas of most pressure i.e. side closest to door, but this is normal for any leather seat regardless of color)

However, the red carpet will naturally look dirtier than black, however, just put some rubber floor mats or some industrial carpet and problem solved.

Regardless, the black/red combo looks absolutely fantastic. I'm just so glad there wasn't a premium price for this color combo over the all black interior.
