Just don't. Terracota with Cobalt will appear as if you were blind when you ordered it. Promise.
i agree with eric. they don't work well together. unless u want something really striking.

those brown interior pics above might look good but Terracota has much more red in it.

I'm telling you to get Cobalt and Cocoa brown. It will be to die for. I don't think the teracotta will be as bad as previously stated, as I just came back from seeing a silver/teracotta. I do think natural might not work too well as lighter colors don't do the cobalt justice. if you want to play it safe go with black and be sure to add a few things like blue in the belts, center console and maybe something else minor.

Cobalt/cocoa is one of my favorites. I also like white/navy. Atlas/cocoa is also spectacular.

I saw one at the dealer .. and it looked quite good. I would probably go with something a bit more mellow to offset the cobalt like cocoa with some cobalt in the interior.

Yes. It does look very good. Many people have told me that this combination has been the best they have seen. It is stunning. Wish I had better pics.

cobalt blue is best with sand beige

you can get away with NBL, but terracotta is a no no with blue.

your salesperson should have told you this
