X6 Colours and Trim

[Steved]

Apologies for not posting this information earlier, but I just realised that the forum has yet to discuss this. I've had the official X5 brochure for more than a week now, and there are a couple of things that occur to me that you may not already know.

You've already seen all the colours on the visualizer and they remain the same in the brochure.

Interior trims are as follows though;

4AD Brushed Aluminium (as in the X5)
4AZ Dark Bamboo Wood (as in the X5)
4BN Dark Ash Wood (new to the X6, reminds me of the Dark Poplar I had in my E53)
4B6 Black Flywheel Aluminium (new to the X6, reminds me of that turned aluminium pattern on the 3-series, but its dark like the metal has been oiled. If you look at the X5 35d intro video you'll see this on the dashboard)

Upholstery Colours

I will just list the unique X6 options;

GHSW Black, Alcantara/Leather combination (like in the M3, but I don't think it's the same as we had in the 4.6is and 4.8is)
GHCH Chateau, Alcantara/Leather combination
LUCX Oyster, Nevada Leather (this is lighter than Beige and will suit those who are looking for the closest option to grey)
LUCH Chateau, Nevada Leather

Chateau is a new colour, and on the sample pages looks to be of a similar darkness to Black. It is richer and darker than Saddle Brown, with more red tones, pretty close to a milk chocolate colour. It looks to be an excellent choice for anyone who prefers a dark hard wearing colour but would like an option away from Black.

I am seriously considering Chateau Nevada leather inside either Space Grey, Deep Sea Blue or Vermilion Red, although I fear that it would not work in VR.

There are a few other details inside the brochure, such as interior dimensions if anyone wants to know.
