Pic request: Savannah Beige with Light Burl Walnut

Just ordered my car with that, wanted to see if anyone has pictures

I did not like any of the other 3 trims, but now I'm wondering what it looks like with light burl walnut..

I had the same problem when I ordered mine, and I couldnt find any real pics online. I love the combo.

Pics are a little dark. try to find the small spots where the sun hits the wood.

nice, thanks for the pics. you wouldn't happen to have any lighter ones, would you?

it looks pretty good, my concern is that the wood would be too light, but i can't really tell..

I know I'm also surprised. Just wanted to see clearer pics before I definitely conclude I made the right choice.

Well yes I've heard that a million times and I agree that the black headliner is sick. But I honestly hate the m wheels and would rather sacrifice the headliner over the rims.. Wish they sold the headliner separately

Ok so since looking at pictures is not the same as seeing it live, I just went to the dealership, got a sample of a savanna beige seat and lined it up against a 1 series with gray poplar and a 1 series with light burl walnut...

I just changed my order to savannah beige with gray poplar. The light burl walnut does not look bad AT ALL. It looks classy, but it looks like it's made for older people, not me.. the gray poplar i felt combines elegance and sportiness very well. I want my 135i to be a little fast awesome sportscar, and I think the gray poplar does a better job conveying that while still giving it an air of superiority in the inside. The light burl walnut conveys elegance but just lacked a bit of aggressiveness..

Thanks for all your help!

PS: AntonV, don't get me wrong, your car still looks beautiful but I just thought the gray poplar was a better fit for me. Thanks for posting the pictures!

You can order M Sport and opt out of the M wheels.

i know how you feel. Im just a big fan of light colored leather and lighter colored wood. Different strokes for different folks! Enjoy the car.

What is really nice is the matte cf wrap some people are doing. im not a cf kind of guy, but it looks fantastic.
