Try this link...It should take you to the Aussi BMW site.. They have the blue interior in their configurator.

Boy, that looks great! I'd expect a Bruin to order the Blue interior, I wonder if you can get Gold for the interior accents too?? Time for an 8-clap!

Very nice. I've never seen it before. Not for everyone I guess, but I really think it would look sharp with several exterior colors. Thanks for the pic.

Well I was thinking that I would order this with a Neptune Blue exterior, but what I'm thinking about is you can't get the aluminum trim in a US ordered car, and I'm not sure that the leather color would look good with anything else. Thoughts? I know I could buy and get the trim installed aftermarket, but this is going to be a 2 year ED lease, so I don't want to drop a lot of capital into the car if I don't have to.

So right now I'm thinking about Natural Brown interior with black headliner - and either Black Sapphire or Neptune Blue exterior. For an E61...

Not a fan of that blue....I had seen a pic a ways back and thought it was actually a darker blue. That treatment looks like the Natural Brown combo with the mix of black and blue rather than being solid blue..

A quite good match to Carbon Black.
