I am not sure about a black interior myself. It could be too much of a contrast, but then again I guess I would have to see it.

I'd say black simply because I have beige and it's next to IMPOSSIBLE to keep it looking the way I want. EVERYTHING messes it up. I need TWEED!

I think you could make a beautiful black and white color scheme in your car, black of course being the dominant. Go with leather, it is always the best.

I'd like to live my life a quarter-mile at a time, but it takes me way too long.

i would have got a white one if they came with black interior. i don't like the baige. Honda should offer both color interiors for all exterior colors. IMO

black w/ white stripe down the middle racing seats. G&G black floor mats with white writing. white painted dash and air vents(maybe?).
i think that would look bad @ss.

I would have gotten white Civic if the interior was not beige. Black would look sick in a white Civic.

I would have a tuff time keeping the beige clean with where I live my dad has a white accord with the beige and he has a really hard time keeping it clean, but takes it down to the dealer to have them do something to the interior. The black is nice but wow it sucks when it gets hot outside. I was originally going to get black on black and sometimes I wish I had but my next car will be black thats for sure.

I think black interior would be sweet on TW. My boy has a 2k1 GS-R, taffeta white with black leather, and I love that combo. Black leather is always good

I have a beige interior, since there is no black interior for Clover green pearl. my preference would be black, but beige is not that bad.

I got a silver car because I personally hated the beige interior and it limited my choices - actually I liked some of the other colors outside as much as the silver but never will I buy a car with a beige interior.

I have a white EX coupe with the beige interior, which I don't really mind too much. I don't think it's too difficult to keep clean, except those floormats. I think Civics look best in black or white anyway. Every time I see my car on a bright sunny day (which is like everyday in AZ) it looks SICK!! Sooo bright and shiny! damnn!!

I have an Eternal Blue Pearl sedan with beige interior... The availability of that particular colour scheme is one of the things which made me wait for the 2002 model year. While I do like black interiors, I find the beige to be a much more soothing colour. It also doesn't get as hot in sunlight as black would.

If I were to go car shopping again, I believe I would again want the beige interior... it is harder to maintain but I wouldn't sacrifice my Eternal Blue Pearl for any other colour, either... its hard to maintain but it is sure worth it! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I would definitely say black, I am not much for the beige interior unless it is in the eternal blue.

I'd say black for sure, because beige gets dirty really easily and it sucks if someone didnt wipe thier shoes right and it gets all over thecarpet and seats-only prob is the contrast + black holds in more heat so it makes the A/C slightly less effective

I have an Inca pearl EX coupe with a black leather interior and gold embroidered Honda symbols on the front seats. Black is definately the way to go.

i like spdrcrchk's interior... beige leather. on a white car it'd look just as nice... i have a red coupe w/ black interior... the only thing i hate tho is no matter how much i clean the car, the dust or whatever always seems to stand out on the dash... never looks clean enuff... and my god i always keep my car clean...
