I read postings daily and have learned a lot on performance,technical and other “hard” issues, so this posting may be a first as I ask for opinions on what is the best color choice for the interior leather? Have selected Canyon Red for exterior stripping.The options are beige, dove grey, or feather grey. Cirrus has e-mailed some photes but not really adequate.This subject is low on my priorty list but also don’t want to make a misstep.Anyone had a chance to evaluate in person.

Craig,
I have seen (and ordered) Canyon Red with the beige interior for my SR22 #085, s/n 0080, delivery date 8/23. I like the beige leather, its really gorgeous, but some of the interior trim is gray which sort of clashes. I wish the interior was monochromatic.
A friend of mine sent me some photos of the gray leather in his SR22 which is really nice, and a more coherent look.
I agree with your point about the inadequate brochures and photos available from Cirrus. Its a difficult decision to make without having reasonable pictures to look at.
When is your plane due?
Jeff
SR22 N916LJ

We are ordering Canyon Red with the beige interior for SR22 #95. The first SR22 delivered is based at my airport and is equipped with beige interior. My partners and I stop by to admire it on a regular basis. Of course, this is completely a matter of personal taste so try to get to a Cirrus fly-in and see for yourself!

Craig - I was at the factory last week, and looked at the two gray seats side-by-side at the assembly work-station. The DOVE GRAY is beautiful and my preference. Also, for some reason, the dove gray has a smoother, softer, almost lambskin type texture than the darker gray, which is a little “harder”, “shiney-er” or something. They feel different to the touch (you could close your eyes and easily tell the diference). Potential downside: The dove gray is very light - nearing a tint of white - and might show soiling more easily.
Just my thoughts. Any choice is a great choice with this aircraft’s interior!

I had to make the same choice a few weeks ago. After seeing the beige in person at the AOPA flyin at FDK, that is what I ordered.
