Tobacco Leather

[btgx5]

i hope the interior looks like the pics from the BMW website (the dark brown as it looks). the photos that people take of actual X5's look lighter.

I've attached a picture. Note: this is Nappa leather, the other option is Nevada leather which may look a little different.

Looking again at my Tobacco seats today, the actual color is closer to the BMW web site pictures shown above although even those are a bit too dark. My photo for some reason made them appear lighter than they actually are. Best to see them in person at a dealer. It's worth checking the color out.

I have Alpine Whte / Tobacco and I have gone back and forth on it. At first I loved it and then I thought it was too much brown. The whole interior except the dash is brown including the carpet, the entire cargo area and the mats. I posted some pics here but the color in the pics is too light. The web site pics are closest. I would describe it as chocolate as much as tobacco which does denote more red. Some friends who get in like and tell us so and some don't say a word. After 3 full months I can say that I do really like it now. It is unique, it looks good all the time and cleans up nicely. I also think it looks good with the white exterior. If I needed new mats I would get black mats. Would I get the color again when in two years when my lease is up? Don't know.

I have black mats with my tobacco interior...breaks it up nicely.

Just wanted to thank everyone for their input on the tobacco interior. Over the weekend I picked up my alpine white 4.8 with the tobacco interior, sport package and 20" Y spoke wheels.....I love it. The color scheme looks great, and definately appears better in real life than it does in pictures. The new car looks great next to my space grey '07 335i with with sport package.

Thanks again!

I have White with tobacco. I am very happy with the combo. Not as hot as black in the sun. Still hides some dirt. Rich looking IMHO.

These pictures seem to me, on my computer monitor, to give the most accurate color rendition i have seen, although in real life it appears darker. But it does give the sense of a slight touch of red in the brown, at least on my monitor.

I find the images on bmwusa to be darker, with too much black, as compared to when I saw Tobacco on a floor model at the dealship.
