Auburn with Anthracite maple wood?

The brown wood just seems to clash with the auburn interior - you'd think they would match the two somewhat. I checked through the gallery but didn't find anyone with auburn interior that has anthracite wood - I think with the black trim of the auburn interior, that would look really sporty, plus the regular wood doesn't match by my eyes.

Someone else on this board selected that combo, I remember seeing it, but dont recall who it was. I will say that the pics in the gallery of the anthracite/auburn dont look as complementary as poplar/auburn. If you're anywhere near San Diego/Del Mar, give me a shout and you can personally inspect mine.

Mine is orient blue exterior with the auburn interior... I got the anthracite trim to keep everything in side black/gray and auburn - I didn't think two shades of brown would work. I like it alot...
Cheers, Jon.

[/quote]Please, more pics. Those in the gallery just show a shiny spot. I'd like to see the wood, as that's what I have currently in my E500
