No, don't match.

Nor do red seats or seat belts.

If you're going to make the mistake.....I mean decision to go with Sinnamon Stick, it's SS and black....no other colors.

"Matching" is irrelevant for YOUR car. If you like it do it, if not, don't. There really are no mistakes if you order what you like/want. I most certainly would order the red seats if someone else wanted to pay for the car.

IMO, the orange calipers look good with sinnamon stick. The black calipers really are just blah.

Orange, Sinamon, and the caramel leather would be a very nice color combination for someone who is a redhead, as they favor the "autumn" color combinations, I have found. Orange calipers would not go with a black interior, to me. Sunroof for flexibility in enjoyment paradigms that you get custom-coated in bronze metallic would be a home run.

You're right, it is irrelevant, so long as you don't mind the comments and lack of desire for your car when you go to trade or sell.

The orange they chose for the calipers sucks, it's like pale or pastel, it doesn't even really match GoMango. It needs to be a bit darker and metallic or glossy. I was trying to build my vehicle with orange calipers and just couldn't find what I liked that wasn't black. After 7 SRTs at the time I was so sick of played out red calipers.

If Go Mango was orange, they may match.

I've always looked at brake calipers as try to offset the color of the car or wheels. That's just me though.

I learned color theory a long time ago and I do work in a design profession. Sinnamon Stick is in the orange color range, with a different tonal value. The car I linked to also has the sepia interior. This is an example of a analogous color palate, and typically an accepted design scheme. Some people do not like a certain color (like the orange color on the calipers) but that doesn't mean the color combination doesn't work together. It's certainly a color scheme I would order.

I think that those three work together Very well. They all come from the same color "family" (just like you said ;)) and look like they'd play nice with each other. In my opinion, I think that it looks sharp and is probably the colors that I'd order if I were to order a Challenger/Charger.

I like that it's something different (in a good way) and that's always Cool!

I think the orange calipers look good. It’s not like a big bold color right next to the paint. It’s typically in the shadows of the wheel and half covered by the spokes.

The red interior on the other hand would be hideous. But then I think the red interior looks terrible on just about everything other than a black car where it looks awesome.

I like the idea of this color combo with the Sepia interior. I agree that the red wouldn't look right with Sinamon stick but disagree about the red looking good on just black because we had the red interior with Granite and it was on point, but that's why they make different colors! :)

Man, Tannehill at it again with this Sinamon Stick hatred lol. You have this weird trigger for this color lol. To each their own man, just let it go.

That’s why I said just about. I agree Granite is one of the few colors that also looks great with the red interior.

Because my wife's first new car before we got married was a 2004 Grand Prix GXP in that metallic orange of the time, and reminds me of SS. It was ugly and reminded me of vomiting after a night of fuzzy navels.

That car was gone within 6 months of us being married for the then "new and cool" Trailblazer SS
