Is that black saphire with black Dakota? I am thinking of getting black saphire but I'm so confused on the interior. I was thinking ivory white with black or mocha. How does black Dakota goes with black saphire? You like ceramic control? Would love to see pictures of led headlight.

I have black Dakota with black sapphire, and I think it looks awesome. I like the black on black look!

I tried taking pic of headlights, but they are so bright that you can't see much! Lol

I think the ivory interior looks great too, but I have heard that jeans can mess them up. I actually just bought a new pair of jeans and sat in my office chair last week, that is white, and ruined the chair. I couldn't imagine how much easier that could happen in a car that was sitting in the sun. The idea of that scares the hell out of me, but I think the white interior looks great!

At dark without shades it was quite clear and bright. Funny no one else can see it, as it is not displayed in their line of vision.
It is extremely faint with polarized glasses during daytime. At night it is extremely bright and easy to see. You can't see it in my pictures because the headlights are making the wall in background too bright and not coming through with camera! Love the HUD though!

I always wanted the black on black as well. I figured this was the car to do it!


Honestly, barely noticed the ceramic. Little heavier, but something you won't obsess over! You will hardly use those controls anyways.

Thanks for letting me know, as I thought it was me. I tried adjusting the brightness to no avail. I too agree it is great, best is Speed Limit Info as in the 50 and surely the 35 it is so easy to go beyond the sped limit and then it would be sad to be chased.
