If you're getting silver, any of the grays, black, even white, the RED interior is FANTASTIC! That's what we have on order! Saw one at our dealership... really nice!

Red is much more aggressive & classic IMO, White ash looks too feminine, even ghetto!

In all C Coupes it's called flamenco red.
The 2 tone interior of the C63 pictured above is another shade of red altogether, much lighter and brighter shade of red compared to flamenco.
In real life flamenco red looks great, more on the darker red side than what it looks like in pics, so definitely a good choice to live with as it won't discolour or get dirty too easily compared to lighter shades of leather.
If you can't find a C Coupe to look at, then try any other model of MB with flamenco red interior eg. E Class, it will be/look exactly the same

Yes, I see! I think this picture is more accurate as to its true shade of red!

Sure does, I would've liked to dress up my interior with a 2 tone combination from the designo range but it's only available for C63 and E Class and up in the MB range here in Aust. 
still full coverage flamenco red is a very nice choice and will suit most exterior colour choices too
That is the most accurate representation pic of it here IMHO in real life it still appears to be a little darker than even that pic

Here's an image from cars.com. The C63 red/black is a brighter shade of red.

Looks AMAZING in my opinion. I personally think the regular Coupe version is way nicer than the AMG version.. I don't like the mix. I think I'm going to order the red. Thanks for the picture Glyn the realistic photograph helped immensely!

Yeah, I like the full read leather seating better than the two-tone black and red. If you ask me, the C63 black and red seats look like someone used cheap katskinz leather or something... The full red available on C250/C350 coupes looks factory and HOT!

Unfortunately when ad agencies get hold of images they have to enhance them to "pop" off the page & you get a colour shift.
My photography sucks but you might be interested in pics of one of our Cape Town dealerships from page #4 here.

What do you all think of steel grey + red leather interior? I was originally assuming I'd do a black exterior but after seeing CoupeDeta's car I began to reconsider. The dark grey w/ red could be a unique approach to a classic. Opinions?
