BMW's standard black or beige or grey interiors are so boring and common that frankly I've been sick of them for years. Unfortunately the really great color combos stay in Europe and never made it here in the past. Finally with the E53 X5 BMW scored an A+++ with the Truffle Brown interior IMHO and I was keeping my fingers crossed for the same A+++ with the tobacco in the new X5 (because the other options are back to the usual boring group). Sadly this hasn't happened. I hear that the Saddle brown interior that is only available in Canada might be spectacular...can't wait to see it in person. Anyway, just my 2 cents.

Honestly I suppest you see the Tobacco before passing judgement. I feel the same way you do about the colors, I was trying to decide on black or tobacco. I got to spend about 30 min or so in a 3.0 with tobacco, and I will be ordering the tobacco! It is a very different color in person.
