Grentz, would you mind posting a few pix of your interior, including one that shows both the interior and exterior color? Would love to see it.

+1 - We have coffee and love it. A perfect compliment to our Mineral White exterior IMO. In a word, elegant.

what are they doing @ BMW?

Tartufo is indeed a very classy looking leather. Much more than all the others...

BMW are really doing everything possible to make me not upgrade to a G05 from my F15....

On top of the extras bundled in packs issue, and no 40d engine option, now we have the one and only interior colour I would pick is now not available.

Oh well, looks like I'll be keeping my F15 for a lot longer than planned.

At this rate the F15 will be my last BMW.

Glad your ride is trouble free! I’m hoping the assemblers and QC Team had their A game going on the day ours hit the assembly line.
It is stored behind the factory. 7-10 days prior to PCD it is delivered delivered to the performance center via carrier.

Same with my F11 ;-)

Tartufo is or was, the best color brown offered. It's unfortunate BMW feels the need to remove this beautiful color. I get more compliments on the color than I did with any other one.

I am still hoping that tartufo was an accidental omission in the order guide. It makes no sense that they removed it from X5 but not X7.

My dealer was quite certain it was not just a mistake but a conscious decision. Mainly because the color is still avaiable in the X7 albeit only if you choose the 6-seater configuration...

I talked to my dealer here in Sweden and he thinks it will be back in April 2020. He thinks demand was to high and they can't produce enough right now. Gone in X5 and still there in X7 makes sense if that's the case.

I hope this is the case. I’ll probably hold off on replacing my 2014 X5 until Tartufo comes back. The other interior colors aren’t nearly as attractive to me.

I wish I could wait as well but I do need a new car pretty soon. I would have even upgraded to the full leather if they would have kept that available.

I hope so. I’m close to pulling the trigger but won’t until the Tartufo returns. This BMW memo makes me hopeful:

“Woodcliff Lake, NJ – August 1, 2019… Information on design and technical changes, as well as changes to standard equipment, lines, packages and standalone options are included in this document.

This document will be continuously updated with the most recent MY20 information as it becomes available.

The following upholsteries on X5 (G05), X6 (G06), and X7 (G07) models are not currently (Aug 2019) available for order but will be re-introduced at a later date.
Canberra Beige Vernasca Leather
Cognac Vernasca Leather (available on G07 w/Captain’s Chairs only)
Extended Tartufo Merino Leather (available on G07 w/ Captain’s Chairs only)
Full Tartufo Merino Leather
Amarone Merino Leather

I actually find all the colors, exterior and interior completely boring. I was looking at the BMW parking at my dealer and it's sad to see really.

When I bought my X3 in 2013, you still had a few choices of colors and it has been disappearing gradually until now where you basically have black, white, or some sort of gray-ish. Same for interior.

It's so bad that when I went to configure my car and the guy asked me the color I wanted, I told him, "I don't really care, it'll be boring as sh*t anyway".

Here's my f25 in sparkling bronze/red leather. I'll miss that car!

Don't know why
