What model x5 is this interior from?

I have alcantara in my e46 sedan and wagon so i do love cloth interior. i fell in love with the imola over alcantara I saw in the for sale section and missed. I never even realized that the alcantara that came in imola cars had imola undertones in the backing.

Apparently there were only RED and BLUE alcantara seats depending on if the car was imola or lemans/estoril? thats what the OP the below thread said when i asked him


https://xoutpost.com/classifieds/bmw...alcantara.html




I ordered and received this e53 X5 sport interior from ebay but it has white undertone backing and im so mad at myself for not catching the mistake.

and i am not a fan of it at all, so annoyed i didnt pay attention to that type of detail.

so, i'm really curious if there was only red and blue, what car did these come from then?

The interior you have looks like it is from a silver or black 4.6is...

Yes the red undertones look nicer, but I am biased


*EDIT* I found your other post that linked the ebay auction and looking carefully at the pictures you can see they were from a Titanium Silver X5 (last two pics)

I've seen it in 4.6is silver and black models, and even estoril models...rarely in good condition.

So here is some more clarification based on some interior codes I was able to run off a few VINs on the VIN decoder...


You bought this interior:
LEDER M TEXTUR/SCHWARZ/SILBER (F2SV)

You want this interior code:
LEDER M TEXTUR/SCHWARZ/ROT (F2RS)

M-Texture Alcantara came in 3 colorways: Silver, Red, Blue

Leder M Texture/Schwarz/Blau M Texture (F2B2)
Leder M Texture/Schwarz/Silber M Texture (F2SV)
Leder M Textur/Schwarz/Rot M-Texture (F2RS)

A few board members in the 4.6iS/4.8iS registry have these interiors. All are fairly rare in my opinion.

Member:
Pearlpower (LE82142) has LeMans Blue Metallic/Leder M Texture/Schwarz/Blau M Texture (F2B2) from factory!
Thrillcat (totaled Imola 4.8iS): LE82651 - Imola Red: Leder M Texture/Schwarz/Silber M Texture (F2SV)
YazX5 (LE82581): LeMans Blue Metallic/Leder M Texture/Schwarz/Blau M Texture (F2B2)
