I think tan is much more appealing. If I had black, I'd trade ya. But I have grey

Highly doubt thats gonna happen. Like stated above, most with Ebony interior aren't gettin rid of it. I'm changing mine right now from Tan to black. Look to spend about $1000+ for the completed job.

dude, you're crazy. A rare maple red on tan and your altering it? Crazy ****- thats the car i always wanted. When i told my dad i wanted a Trans am, thats the car i drove and fell in love with. By the time i was old enough to have my license, they had stopped mking trans ams and ive never found one. I ended up with a torch red on camel. or taupe, not neutral. I like it and all but d rather have your exact color combo. I have black corbeaus in my car. The back are still tan leather but im swapping them with the black cloth ones in my v6. The best to look for is a black on black trans am cause those are also rare and really sweet looking. Pretty much everyone else has tan if they wanted it it isnt hard to find on anything other than black. Except silver but theres a reason there.....

Maple Red Metallic TA + Tan Interior = Teh SEX. Ask me how I know.

It's a fairly simple swap, but I'd keep a hold of that tan interior if I were you. Good luck with the swap if you go through with it.
