Monaco Looks great with
Terra or Beige if you want two tone. Gray if you want monotone. Terra is my personal favorite.
Before you ask, Terra is called a Priority One option. If your dealer does know what that means, send him here for some education. Terra costs same as any other leather interior available for the 1. |

I ordered Monaco Blue with the Savannah Beige. It is being built as we speak! For me it came down to either the Terra or Savannah. I am not a big fan of having the lighter colors on all the bits like the sills and lower door trim. Just my opinion!

The Lemon or the Black have been my favorite so far, with the blue that is. any type of brown wouldnt look too hot. personal opine of course.

Color
Current leader is the Monaco Blue with the Savannah. I prefer the two tone, but the bmw website wont let me customize it that way.
If not Savannah, then Black, but is that too dark? |

Like others have said, I think possibly the Lemon would look nice. I am thinking of possibly getting Monaco, but haven't figured out the rest (interior & trim).

I love terra, but chose beige because the terra interior only has an all black dash, whereas beige has a 2 tone dash.

I went with Savannah beige. When the time comes I think this is going to be an uncommon and handsome combination, making for a desirable car on the resale market.

Darker leather colors make the Monaco look darker - I went with black b/c I wanted the car to look darker. I don't think you can go wrong with many color combos - Lemon looks amazing, and Terra is gorgeous, too. Naturally, those colors seem to lighten up the Monaco a bit. Don't forget to consider the trim either, as Dark poplar looks good but I didn't want it with a black interior as I thought that would look too dark inside.
