Umber Maple Wood

Anyone interested in purchasing Umber Maple Wood from me? I'm swapping out the wood with black birdeseye maple. Can't change because it is a designo package.

Thought maybe a slim chance in hell someone would be interested.

Which designo package are you getting and how much are they charging you for the wood transplant?

Is this the same as Burl Walnut? I am having trouble with MBUSA at the moment. They will only allow me to order the Teal Blue interior with Black Bird's Eye Maple. I want the Burl Walnut. My car will be ready in February (if I get the interior sorted out in time). Is this any good to you?

I will be living in Virginia when the car arrives. Not very practical for swapping. I have not seen the Umber Maple but I am trying to get the Burl Walnut. Good luck.

Thanks for the enquiry but I wimped out and yesterday changed the spec to Charcoal interior so I could have the Burl Walnut. I just did not want to get stuck with the Black Ash!
