i really like the coral red but it doesn't flow. it almost seems like it stop with the seats. I see in this eby pix and wonder why bmw didn't do this This looks so extremely super extra HOT with the dashes.

If they had done this, i think coral red would have been my first choice.
now it will be saddle brown.

agreed. needs some red on the dash.

urnuts · 09-09-2006, 09:09 AM

Most likely for production and cost issues- many color interiors, but only 1 dash needed.

on BMW Individual cars, they do the color-matching dash for those exotic colors

False advertising....it's a 328i with chrome exhaust tips!
And it's not a US spec model....no orange side markers.....

Too much red for me. I prefer the color contrast of the US production version.

Too much red...is ugly. The contrast red/black in the configurator makes the car look beautifully hot. I kept going back and forth between Aluninum and Gray poplar wood trim, but finally could not resist the gray poplar. It's so beautiful with Coral red interior.

That is a really cool model except that the paint metallic is too coarse!

That is the thing I really like about the corel red, is that it is mainly limited to the seats.

You think so? Saw Gray Poplar in person and it looks more brown than gray.
