Can anyone help with pics of individual interiors?

Hey all. Going to dealer this week to order x5 for my father. He wants Ruby Black exterior but is having trouble with interior. Does anyone have actual pics of syrah blue individual leather or slate individual? What did you decide to get with your Ruby black?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Almost no one orders Syrah Blue and I saw a lousy pic of it on a 7er and built one on the Configurator, I can't recommend it.

If you're looking at Ruby Black, I suggest the Slate or Champagne leather interior. I'm not sure about Australia, but there's a distinction between the Champagne and Full Champagne leather (the former has two-tone door treatment, and the centre console is black, versus "full" leather which has the light leather on those two portions). Slate may only be available in Full-leather outfitting,

No i don't think ruby black is an Australian exclusive colour. It is a BMW Individual colour that i don't think USA gets.
He is keen on the Slate colour but would like to see actual pics before we go into dealer. I did suggest champange but the config doesn't really do it justice. Does anyone have pics of champagne?
Thanks again for your input.

Not on X5 but here is syrah blue. Check this post for interior finish. Personally I think slate is better.

BTW, nice choice with Ruby black.

Thanks for the pics. Not liking that syrah blue IMO. I have tried searching everywhere for pics of the slate but haven't been able to find anything. To those with Ruby black, What interior did you choose?

I chose plain black interior with my ruby black, and went with the poplar light trim. it's kind of 'ordinary' but I like it a lot
wow I should really get off my butt and take some photos of it, specially now my wife got a decent dslr camera
18 months I've been procrastinating about taking some pics :/

Please do jimsaq, would love to see it. I'm pretty sure i've seen a Ruby black x5 getting around northside of Brisbane. Was that you? Black is probably what will end up being in the car but i think a lighter colour would make the ruby sparkle more!
