ATTN: SG Owners...
Hey people,
I am trying to decide between Monaco Blue and Sparkling Graphite... If I end up with the Blue, I intend on getting the Grey Leather interior with Burl Walnut Wood... I really like the SG exterior but have no idea as to what interior colors would work... What interior and trim did you all select??? Any pictures would be a bonus Also, how is this color to clean??? I hear that Monaco Blue is prone to swirl marks... |

We just order SG with Gray Leather and Walnut Trim. Did not want black (i.e., dark interior color) and wood gives it that touch of elegance my wife is looking for versus that of sport.
Believe that there are some pics of this combination here in pic section. Of course, if you are looking for a sport appearance more so than luxury. The common consensus heer seems to be black with alum trim. Greg |

I have SG with black leather and Poplar trim. I think the poplar gives some contrast and class to the car. My sister's black leather with walnut is a cleaner look with not as much grain. I was thinking about grey with SG but thought Black would go better.

Sparkling Graphite with Terra is a popular and great combo. I never liked Terra until I saw it in person. Terra is excellent especially if you want a darker interior. On the other hand, I thought Sparkling Graphite was awesome until I saw it in person.

black interior with burl. if you get black interior, any trim will look good with it and it will look less dirtier after wear and tear than the other colors

Thanks for the info guys... I was leaning towards Gray with Walnut but just wasn't sure how well it would go because I remember how "brownish" the SG looked at the dealership in the direct sunlight. I'll have to go over there in person again to make a decision.
Like I asked earlier... do you find it hard to maintain the SG exterior paint? Is it easy to clean? Does it show off swirl marks easily like a Black car???? How about dirt? Thanks so much for the help |

For me it was also between M blue and SG; I went with SG because it looked more exciting under the proper lighting and because all my other cars have been blue. So I went with SG, Grey Leather, Alum.
I had Orient Blue (similar to Monaco), grey leather and alum on e46 328 and it looked great.
