Custom Grey Interior or Truffle Brown?

I have Grey Interior and I'm not a big fan of the grey rug and plastic door cards. I do like having the Grey Leather though. (I Have Sport Seats)

I bought another X5 as a donor vehicle that has the Truffle Brown Interior which i was always a fan of. It does not have the sport seats... i dont think they are as comfortable but i haven't had many miles with my backside on them to fully make that assessment.

What i was thinking of originally was to swap out the interiors. but now i'm thinking of keeping the grey leather seats... and pulling the grey leather out of the door cards. ending up with black interior but all the leather would be grey.

Thoughts?

My donor car would end up with grey plastic and dark brown leather so it would look pretty terrible i think, but i dont plan to keeping it and will just sell for next to nothing.

Hmm interesting combo the black and gray.

But I do love the truffle brown too!

What color is your exterior?

I had a Toledo blue 4.4 for a while - fantastic color if you can keep it polished. I personally think it would be an absolutely fantastic combo with the truffle brown interior. Really unique and gorgeous.

My thought is to choose what you like the best. Personal preference should rule.

I agree with OF, the blue and brown is a pretty striking combo I think!

But the gray and black will work with blue too if you feel so inclined, IMO.

If this were a poll, I'd vote brown.

Agreed. The lack of pictures is an injustice.

Brown will be a good interior color for Toledo blue. Good luck and show some update when you have.
