I really really really like the way the light wood looks with the black interior. it really makes it stand out and if the wood is nice, that's a good thing.
but, steve at eurobuyers markups are re-god-damn-dickulous. ask triple x about that. then again, i guess that doesn't matter when your parents give you anything you ask for.

here is a link that shows what it looks like. I have a black leather interior. What do you guys think?

It's really none of your business whether or not I get things. It's between me and my parents. Umm, my mom doesn't HAVE an X5... I'm not a spoiled brat, and I do have a job.

LOL I remember that episode of the CJ life story.

Back to the wood...

The light trim looks damn good, provided you have a dark interior. Some people don't like contrast, but I think it looks sharp. It would stand out well.

I'm with you against that ZHP trim, CJ. I think it's almost as great a disaster as the Alcantara steering wheel and shift boot.

I think I'm going to go for it... The interior of the 330 is really dark.. The wood is very dark and the leather, dash, etc., are all black so it's depressing in there! I think some light wood would break up the monotony and liven things up, plus I think the contrast is great looking.
I've driven a ZHP before and the trim has kind of a neat texture, but I don't think it's very good looking.
