Jess · 05-31-2005, 12:56 AM

I'm getting Alpine White. However, cant decide which interior/trim color would look good with the white exterior and its driving me crazy!!! Hopefully you guys can help me decide. thanks!

I'm getting the Terra/Burl combo on my Alpine White. I saw it in person and it's nice because you still have some black on the dash as well which gives it a nice contrast and the Burl makes it look classy. Alum is nice and sporty looking but just doesn't seem to fit IMHO.

Jess: Let me ask you this: If you could have your choice of 2 different homes which of the following would you pick:

1. 1930's Spanish style home with oak floors and spanish tile roof
2. 1990 Contemporary with floor to ceiling glass and minimal detail

You must pick one or the other.

Are you planning to get the sports pack?? I think its a major factor b/c if you have sports pack, black interior with aluminum trim would give you a very sporty, aggressive look, especially with white exterior color. Somehow the wood trims that BMW offers in E90 are not attractive at all.

I am getting Sports Package. Honestly, I want the aluminum trim, to get that sportier look however I want to get away from the black leather seats because I have black leather seats now and its way too hot in the summer. I was thinking about terra/aluminum but I have not seen either in an Apline White yet so I am not sure how that would look.

hmm....I think I will have to go with the 2nd choice. I prefer more contemporary look.

Be a trailblazer and get the Alpine White with terra/aluminum. I think that would look completely awesome. White and terra have to look good together IMHO and terra and aluminum you know looks good (from the interior pics thread on this site).

It will be nice if someone can share some pics of Alpine White with Terra interior

The only interior color that I saw with Alpine White at the dealer is Beige.

Sorry for the poor quality pic. I will post more when I get the car.

Thanks for the pic, wish1. I ordered mine already with Black Leather/ Alum Trim as you can see why I ended up that combo based on the poll

I'm sure the Terra looks awesome too.

I saw the other exterior pics you posted of your car and it looks

You are making me jealous...I cant wait to get mine!
