Speak for yourself.
Crystal is great for going down to Lake Como, Italy. And I'm not going fishing....

I agree, I think they screwed up with the brown dashboard with the Canberra beige interior. Website doesnt seem to even depict the colors well.

A good look at Beige Vernesca leather with Luxury seating starting around 8:24 mark.



I am interested in this interior but it seems to be rare!

Where might one go online to better understand the difference between carbon black and black sapphire metallic?

Here is a video of both standing next to each other.

Basically, Carbon black has a hint of blue in the black, so at some angles it looks with a bluish hue.

That’s tricky because while Sapphire black is black all the time, carbon black changes a lot depending on the light you’re in. The more light the more blue.
Imo, the configurator does a decent job of showing the overall color of carbon black although it doesn’t really do either color justice.

Finalizing my order today (for the dealer to enter it tomorrow); narrowed down to the following:

Arctic Grey/Coffee/Anthracite
Arctic Grey/Coffee/Fineline High Gloss
Arctic Grey/Coffee/Brown Metallic Ash

Every time I look at more pictures online, I keep switching my mind. I thought I settled on antracite but the brown metallic ash looks really interesting in pictures here. I plan on keeping the car for 5-7 years so I’m worried a little about the exposed wood vs the gloss.

I recently placed a order for a M50i:

Phytonic Blue Metallic
Merino Extended Ivory white/Night blue
Fineline high gloss wood.
22" Cerium 747 wheels

I have the Fineline wood in my 650i coupe & really like it.
Not a fan of the aluminum or matte trims.

same as you for the interior, I would have loved to get the matte wood if it was in another shade. I'm not entirely sure the greyish look would stand out against the blue/white interior.

We have Coffee/Fineline High Gloss on order. The salesman helped us decide by pointing out that the coffee color is present in the fineline which makes it a good combination

Just got an allocation for a X5 M50i. I’m going with Carbon Black Metallic, Coffee Full Merino, and Aluminum Dark Mesh trim. Also getting 21" M Y-spoke bi-color wheels that will be powder coated gloss black very soon after delivery.

Once my current lease is up and its time to order I'll be getting:

Carbon Black
Ivory White/Night Blue full merino leather
Or Coffee full merino
Piano black individual trim

Torn between the 2 interiors but I have a child and a dog so coffee may be the way to go :

Our tendency is I pick the model and options while she picks the colors (exterior/ interior/ trim).

should be ordering 40i msport tomorrow. have to decide on a combo between carbon black/extended coffee merino or Black merino and mineral white with extended coffee merion or black merino. going with the matte poplar trim.

i'm leaning towards mineral white/black. but that could change in the next few minutes.
