Like so many of us here, we placed orders without test driving and perhaps not even seeing the colors and options.

I limited my interior choices to Coffee or Tartufo. The coffee on the f15 was too dark, i was concerned that the new coffee color on the g05 would be also that dark but i can report that its not as dark as the f15. The tartufo is a bit softer leather to the touch than the coffee. Its between the coffee and the cognac in color.

I had the opportunity to see and feel both leathers. The coffee pics are within a showroom with the vehicle facing the glass door and there was a lot of glare. The tartufo pics were taken outside on a sunny day. Both cars are black color exterior. Here are the pics

Thanks e90_2_f80! I was going back and forth between those two colors and you just helped confirm my decision to go with the coffee.

I appreciate the pictures as someone who made a decision between the two, site unseen. I went with Tartufo. Obviously, there's no right answer here. What tipped the scales for me though was that I live in Seattle, which tends to be overcast much of the year. I felt like the lighter color would brighten things a bit.

Thanks for posting! We definitely made the right choice for us! Love the Tartufo...looks so warm, soft, and inviting.

They are so different. One is Orange and the other is like dark chocolate I have owned coffee and the other one is just too orange for me. I went with beige this time.

Same thing here - tartuffo is way too orange for my liking. Always choosing between coffee/mocha (had the mocha nappa on F15) or beige. The latter is a bit more difficult to maintain, but makes the interior so much brighter.

I thought this shot was interesting because in one photo it shows tartufo in bright light, medium light and shade. The color changes quite a bit.

Really helps, Coffee is not bad either.

Does merino hold well over 5 years?

I’d take into account the exterior color. White ext and coffee interior looks good. Phytonic blue and tartuffo looks really good.

I ordered Alpine White and Coffee with Fineline trim. It was an overcast day so I hope Coffee is a true brown color.

This is not x5. On 760 and 550 full leather tartufo is individual and is darker and has rope stitching. Google 760

Thanks! That is what I thought based on the layout. But I have NEVER seen this type of steering wheel on any version. Is this a "Individual Car"?

Yes, that is an Individual steering wheel in the pic you're referring to. If the image was clearer...you would be able to see that INDIVIDUAL is written across that silver piece in the lower spoke of the steering wheel.
