I have AW with dark brown interior. I love the combination. The brown is richer looking than black or tan and I get a lot of "Oh, I like that interior"...the dark brown is less common than black and sets my X5 apart, imo.

I almost bought the AW with the Orangeish brown, not sure which interior color is which. I have a similar saddle brown in my Toyota Tundra, which I love, but in the X5 it looked cheap imo and was too bright. I did like that it had black for the floor mats, etc.

But to each his own...I like the Vanilla Ice Cream for dessert, my wife wants razzleberry pie....
