This is the first time I've seen Atacama referred to as "Basketball". And from a Volvo dealer no less...........

Maybe Volvo got it all wrong. Atacama is "basketball", Nordkap is "Hockey Puck", and Gobi is Beach Volleyball".

All the chicks who ride in my car call it pumpkin.

same, that's what all my passenger's call it (and i what i refer to it as when describing the interior to others)

i was laughing when i looked this car up yesterday (it was mentioned in another thread here)

Passion Red/ ATACAMA is a nice combo though; i've seen both a VR and SR in SLC in that combo.

Now that Audi interior color, that's getting the "hide" thing right.

Atacama, when my car actually ran well and strong, was the pumpkinhead seats. Now that my R is more like a 2.4t, I just call it gourd orange. Cuz it's got no scare to it anymore.

I prefer the BMW Natural leather better.

The baseball stitching was a bit OTT.

YMMV

Is it just me or does the Toscana Tan seem more like Basketball than Atacama.
