Oyster (Lemon) vs. Terracotta on LMB

midlands · 08-05-2011, 08:17 PM

I have a LMB/Lemon 2011 135i convertible — and it looks just fantastic. No regrets at all. It's your personal preference, but I'm really glad I got this over terracotta (or any other interior color); I use a few quick shots of Zaino leather cleaner every few weeks and a microfiber cloth, and it gets completely clean.

Zaino is the shit! Best leather care products on the market.

I went with the Terra,

I'd pick it again over the oyster with LMB. Savanna Beige is another option.

Lemon in my 2011. Love it!

Never cleaned and no problems.

I do not put my feet on the seats.

Terra
You will regret lemon / oyster after a couple of years due to wear. Terra is far more durable and looks great in my car ; terra / tahiti green !!!

I would go Terra. I think it looks classy with the blue and will retain it's look longer as many are saying.
