Sorry, but I still wish they would bring back Space Grey on the F3X.

M Sport with Imola Red would be sweet.

Lrscpa beat me to it... I'm just hoping they bring Space Grey back!

No I get what you mean. If I were to get interior "wood" I'd get something as matte and as real-looking as possible. Really dig the Audi ash wood. I've come to like the piano-black too, although I am yet to see it in person.

Piano black scratches like a mother.

The hex aluminium in the M-sport is a perfect match for the car, IMO.

Yeah I heard that, what a shame. I didn't know piano keys scorched that easily

Ruby Black Metallic with Oyster Leather! Although heard the oyster leather is a challenge to maintain.

I think bmw reintroduced green, but as a BMW individual option. It's called peridot green and is only available on the 7 series so far.
