I saw an older SLK with the vanilla interior and decided take a peek inside. YIKES! The area around the center console and armrest looked horrible. All the vanilla color had rubbed off to expose black. It looked really bad.
I had heard that the color of our interiors were paint (not sure if the base color is dark slate or black) but I'm now concerned about high traffic places like the armrests (doors and console) and around the parking brake (where I place my cell).
Someone on the boards had mentioned they had problems with Armor-all removing the color.
