Sport Line without red highlight stitching

Anyone know if you can order the sport line with leatherette without the red stitching? I know you can with Dakota Leather, but I don't want to fork over the extra $ for it. I know black leatherette is available because you can configure it on the other lines.

Repeating it four times is one way to get your point across. LOL

I was under the impression you could change the trim (to black gloss or pearl etc) but you were stuck with the red stitching in sport line mode--- don't worry your wife's wrong, it looks sweet!

right, you can choose black to replace the red trim but the red stitching is all that is available for the leatherette

Are you basing this on USA? I've asked my dealer here in New York and they seem to think you're stuck with red stitching on black leather as well...

I am US military. I just ordered a US spec 328i Xdrive for my wife. We pick it up today. We were looking at the leatherette but my wife said no due to the red stitch and no rear heated seats. The dealership said in order to loose the red stitch, we had to go black leather.
We decided on getting a mineral grey with a 2 tone oyster grey with black carpeting. We pick it up in 3 hours, I' ll tell u how I like it.

Here in Sweden black leather has red stiches on Sport line too?
Isn't that the same on US bound cars?

Ross-- as far as I know it is--with any black leather or leatherette combo in sport line red is unavoidable (I think I like it though)

That is correct that you will automatically get contrasting stitching.

Well, picked up the wife's car. It has the oyster grey leather but a black leather wheel with red stitch. Asked the guy and he sed in the sport that everything has the red thread if it is black.

And yes, got it a Pentagon. 3rd one from them. The E93 335is is by far the best one.

Ordered my sportsline with black leather and NO red stitching.

Apparently this is a new option that only recently became available.

IMO, the red stitching looks bad with wood grain trims.

I have a MSport with black leather and no red stitching. However I ordered my car with black on the trim pieces so maybe that has something to do with it

That's because the M Sport doesn't get the red stitching, only the Sport Line

Damn, the red stitching is awesome, you're missing out. But at least the leather is black and not beige.
