space grey 4.8 with tobacco pics

this is tobacco with napa leather. today it was overcast so most of these make the tobacco appear a little lighter in color due to the flash. i think the pic with the shifter / idrive best represents the color. i also took pics of the floor as i dont recall anyne mentioning the floor color. it also appears a little lighter here.

The dimmer is below the fog switch. Look on the other side of the head light switch. I'm not sure what it is.

BTW, speaking of headlights, the E70 has the best headlights I've ever seen. They are much better than the bi-xenons in my 9-3 convertible. A lot brighter and better reach. Also, about the cornering lights,I've seen them go on, but I can't figure out how they work. Are they located in the foglight housing?

I believe that the turning side fog light goes on when you start the turn and an adjustable mirror reflects the light into the cornering turn.

i was waiting to see the tobacco interior but when i

saw it live i was disappointed. i was hoping for it to be darker. kind of make the interior look cheap. i dont mean to break anyones balls by this comment if one has purchased this color interior.
