Velencia w/ Brown Top

Hi all,

Anyone have valencia orange with the brown top? I'd love to know if this is a good match vs. the black. Pics would be great. Also, what interior did you pick?

That is a rare color combination. From the German BMW website, here is the rendering of what you are looking for:

Looks quite good! That's a close call between Oyster for the nice contrast or Terra to try to match more closely. For a top down, I'd do Oyster, which I think I see peeking out from the photo at the head restraint.

"Rare" for a good reason I'd say. I like Valencia Orange, but I think it needs the Black top to really pop and look good, and not Moonlight Black either. Orange and black are naturals together. I'd also opt for Black Dakota interior too.

I think it looks good but I'd only lease that car. Buying definitely go with black for resale.

Black top and wheels.

VO with a black top and Oyster. That would pop nicely IMO. The brown top just makes it a little too earthy.

Yuck. Definitely a look for the 70+ crowd.

This. That thing would be a nightmare to sell.

Totally agree with your color choice selection. Orange and black is the way to go if that's what you want.
