What interior to order with Lunar blue?

I am very undecided with what color interior to order for the Lunar blue. I’m getting the night package, performance seats and the black cross spoked wheels like I have now. Just keep switching my mind between the brown and black interior...

This is totally subjective but for me, the Lunar Blue and the Gray Magno doesn't pair as well with the Nut Brown as much as the black interior. I think the Black exterior looks good with the Nut Brown as would a White or the Red exterior. I don't think it would look bad but just not as good. So my vote is for the black.

So its very subjective but based on your fleet and the level of each model/options I think you need to keep it rather aggressive. Afterall Blue is not the popular color but with the right options its bad a$$.

I think a lighter trim could really offset the blue and while not super easy to keep clean- I know you wont have an issue there. Did you ever reach my contact??

I was thinking of changing my paint from matte grey to the Lunar blue along with the Nut Brown leather... but I'm keeping the matte grey on brown... I think. Not final in the books for a little longer

i ordered LB with almost white 'macchiato beige/black' combo and black piano with flowing lines. Too many silver cars with black leather in the past so I decided to go with something different. And kids are driving their cars now!

White looks nice - for a suit and tie day... but black probably will keep looking good for years to come!

Please don’t do black. So boring. How about red? Goes with Blue. Superman got nothing on you right? 😬

You should get the NFC wireless charger with the carbon fiber interior trim now. I have the carbon fiber trim and I also have the NFC charger in my car (early November build).

I have magno grey with nut brown and it's stunning. Was a little worried at first but having put more than 2K on the car I love it more and more every time I get in. Awesome combo! I'll post pics soon

I chose this combo:
Paint code 1: 890U CAVANSITE BLUE METALLIC FINISH
Equipment: 561A EXCLUSIVE LEATHER - BLACK/ANTHRACITE

736 TRIM PIECES - ASH TREE WOOD BLACK (2A70)
737 CENTER CONS. IN ASH TREE WD BLACK OPEN-PORED(2A70)

The most important option in my opinion:
61U ROOF INNER LINING MIOCROFIBER DINAMICA BLACK

Cavansite blue is named Lunar blue in the US.





I also decided to wrap door handles and the chrome on the rear in black as I didn't want a car with chrome on it.
Everything else was wrapped to protect the paint.

Well you only get three non-unique boring choices bud, black, beige, or brown. Unlike the Bmw M5 that gives you 11 choices....

But despite those 11 choices the Bimmer is still an inferior product!
