Can't see beige myself, it'd probably be boring black for me.


In the end, I decided to leave Estoril because of it and go for BSM with coral red.
+1 we would be very patriotic being that red and blue are colors that belong on a flag together rather than in a car. I have loved Estoril blue since the 90s when it was an E36 M3 color but I love the coral red leather so I'm torn. Either BSM or Mineral Grey with coral leather, hexagon trim, and the black strip or Estoril Blue with beige leather and wood trim. I absolutely hate aluminium or hexagon trims with the beige or grey interior, too much of a color clash IMO.

I see what BMW is doing with the interiors but come on we are getting the top of the line F30 for the time and we have the worst interior selections. The trademark color for the M will only have one real interior that looks good and its a downgrade to the Sport line black interior. Add some blue stitching or allow for an Oyster with black stitching option. I'm really not interested in going back to black after having black in a 330 and now oyster with my current 335. The oyster look with black inserts makes the car look custom rather than cookie cutter beige and black. At least Audi steps up to the plate and puts some race inspired seats in the S4.

Loved the Topaz blue, my 01 330ci was topaz over black. If I end up getting the M-Sport I'd most likely go Estoril over black. Already did the red interior with my current ride.

I'm planning on doing ED next spring and I was really thinking of getting the Superman combo. I do really wish I had the choice between Oyster, Saddle, Terracotta, Chestnut or even just the Everest grey that's available in the ZSL

I opted for the Dakota Black Leather interior. Will be perfect w/ the anthracite headliner & tints. I like the additional privacy and darkness at night, as well as it being a great match against the Estoril Blue II.

Would have considered Saddle Brown leather seating or the Opal White leather seating if it were an option, but they're not available on the 2013 US spec M Sport F30s.

Estoril will be 800 bucks as well...so really, for Canada, you're probably looking at a $4800 addition for M sport....
[/QUOTE]

According to BMW Canada price list, the 335i M Sport option is $2300, not $4800 !!!
However, if you were to add Sport suspension option ($400) to the Sportline, then the difference to upgrade from Sportline to M Sport is only $1900.

There is no extra charge for Alpine white !

If I ever order a EB interior I'll have to get an individual Opal White interior. I will NOT have a black interior car ever again. It's so depressing. Red, meh. Beige, I'm not 70.

So yeah, unless there's a brown interior offered whenever I do order, it will be Opal White for me. It's so classy.

Of the handful of reasons I chose to not go with M Sport, being stuck with black or beige was definitely on the list. Can't do black in Florida, sick of beige.

Color and trim choice seems the most limited in Msport.
With sport line you can get red trimmed black leather and that adds a cool sporty look. I don't understand why Msport didn't offer blue trimmed black leather for those who like estoril. It seems an obvious option.
Plus blue trimmed black seats would then have something else inside to compliment the blue anodized dash trim.

I couldn't get exactly what I wanted in my Msport either.
I really liked the sportline in red with red trimmed black seats and brushed aluminum with red anodized trim.
None of that is available in the Msport.

My Msport will look good, but it's classic red with black interior with aluminum dash and black trim. It works. But, would have preferred brushed aluminum or the anthracite.
The whole "line" thing is stupid because BMW then doesn't allow a customer to select any trim and color available from any line.
"Customizing" should allow true selection, not just a very limited color palate.

I'm sure BMW has heard this, even my CA tells me that customers have been complaining at the lack of real choices.
I'm sure BMW will correct this, but it's too late for those of us who already ordered.

Got beige leather...almost had to here; black leather looks great but ends up being just too hot! Went with aluminum hexagon/ blue matte trim..I figure if I don't like it I can swap it out since the trim pieces in BMWs are a (relative) cinch to remove/install.

I wonder if the aluminum hexagon on the door pulls will be too hot in the summer to touch as well?
