In the UK we can cet a colour called Camel Navarda Leather, this brings a darker beige leather facing for the seats and armrests with the carpets and seat backs are in black, so you do not get the "coal hole" effect of all black, needles to say that is teh colour of my 3.0sd SE on order.

Bamboo without a doubt. I think the others look quite awful....but I am in the UK and most cars here are specced with Aluminium.

Annoyingly, we can't get aluminium in the US.

I have the same problems in the beginning. AlpineWhite was fixed. So first I want to take Tobaco with Bamboo, but then I see a test-car at my dealer and I was shoked. The floors and the cockpit, all is tobaco-brown. Why they can't let it black and only the seats and the sides of the doors are Tobaco. That would be perfect ! Now I ordered AlpineWhite, Black Leather with Bamboo - Seems to be the perfect combination.

All the other browns or greys are too light and with children there will be no way. Also the Nappa-leather is not good with children, too sensitive !

And be happy, that you can't order the Aluminium in the US, it is really terrible with all combinations ! Too much Aluminium inside, looks like a Coke-can then !

What I would prefeer is a nice Carbon-design to the black leather, that I have just now in my Audi RS6plus and it looks incredible sportive !

Have a nice day...

Bye for now and good luck for making the correct personal decision !
