What is SGM?

I gotta vote for the terra, I like the darker color personally. Of course I like all the dual-tone interiors, I don't think you can go wrong with any of those.

Sparkling Graphite Metallic. Basically dark gray

I think terra would look good.

Savannah gets matching headliner...if that makes a difference to you. Terra gets Alaska grey.

Its your $$$ but IMO the Gloss black int trim would look much better. IMO the aluminum looks good ONLY with black int. Don't get mad, just MY opinion.

Terra is nice, but I'm partial to Savannah... and it would look stunning inside your SGM.

With this combo, also consider the Gray Poplar or the Gloss Black trim.

I LOVE Savannah with Aluminum...LOVE IT.

If you go Terra, go aluminum for sure. SHARP, crisp and clean!

Can't go wrong with any of your options.

Is there a difference between Terra Boston leather and Terracotta Boston leather? I know its a P1 option, but Terra is an orange vs. Terracotta is more of a brown.

Which is the proper name for the brown I have seen many times on this forum? I have already sent and email to my SA telling him to drop the black leatherette for the Terracotta Boston leather (which I assumed is the brown leather)

pls. help thanks.

It's the same thing. There's only one brown color you can get, and it's reffered to by BMW with a different name in different places. :thumbup:

i'd go for the savanna but i too am biased, i've got the lemon which contrasts well with aluminium (see pic), i'd imagine the savanna will look equally as hot IMO! also as mentioned above the savanna gets matching roof liner which would definately swing it for me.
