Went the safe option and ordered Aluminium trim after all :rofl:

i hope you picked a dark interior color ;)

I agree. I would have thought wood is the "safe" option and aluminum the sportier option. Aluminum looks great with black interior.

Which is why I went for Black Nevada leather with aluminium :nanana:

Over here in UK BMW's with wood interior trim are (in general) not liked as it is seen as at odds with sporty image. However in a Range Rover (the proper one;)) you would only want the wood trim options there.

Can't get any darker than Black ;)

I agree. I ordered a Black 4.8 with Black Leather interior, wish I could do the aluminum instead of the wood to break up the black better and add to the sporty feel of the car.

oh, can't you get aluminium for yours?

Not on the 4.8i in the US.

Shame that, does look good with the Black interior.
