It's not just about horsepower, but how powerful your horses are.

if you like white i say get the grey or black interior with wood. if you get the graphite i say black interior. heck, i'd always get a black interior with wood. just looks sexy and rich. i think the aluminum is too bright and chitsy...

i wish the white had the brown interior they introduced in the 02 e46... that white on brown (which was really two toned) was goooorgeous....

I don't like the wood. I think the Aluminum is damn sexy and sporty.

The best way is to go to the dealer and pick out what you like in person. There is also a thread on the photo section of the forum that has all the different interior shots.

For me, I was between Alpine White on Terra/interior with aluminum trim Vs. Black on Black with aluminum trim. I went with the black on black...but I think the white with terra and aluminum is awesome.

I can't stand the Alum and its easily scratched. Not into the sporty thing. Been there done that already. Yeah just go to the forum and check out the pics to make your decision.

AW/Black Leather/Dark Walnut

Personally, I would stay away from the aluminum trim. It scrathes easily and is not as classy looking as a wood trim.

Also, silver/graphite/black/white are common colors. How about Mystic Blue/Black Leather/Dark Walnut?

If you want a cool car, AW w/beige & either wood is great. Do you want leather or leatherette?
I am thinking saddle brown, if its available in the E90 328/335, might be awesome with AW. Not sure if any of the trims will match it though -- anyone have thoughts on which trim to put with saddle brown? I guess walnut will be dark enough to avoid a clash. Not sure if the tones are right together though.

Couldn't agree more (obviously). I also wish the saddle brown had been available.. maybe on the next one. I'm very happy with the White/Beige/Walnut. It's a classy combination and will hold its value very well. I think the BMW aluminum sucks. MB has good aluminum, but BMWs is like cheap tin foil.

I can see where BMW placed more effort and less in other areas. Too bad especially since it is a visible product.

Same here. For AW, the black interior will contrast well.
