Dear e60 members,

I am in a dilema, so I come to you for advice.
Which would you choose, Black or Auburn interior?
If any of had gotten the Auburn interior, how many of you would get it again the next time and why.
I already had the black interior, which was just fine, but I thought I'd try something new. Let me know~

For Auburn, I am just worried that over time it would die out on me and soon begin to hate the color.

Auburn again in a New York Minute!! I love the color and it has held up very nicely in the 1 year plus that we have had the car.

I wished the Auburn was available with Titanium Gray. If I knew that by pressing my CA for the Auburn, I would have pressed real hard.

Okay... I'll go against the grain here. I didn't get it. There I said it.

BUT, IF Auburn was available with ventilated seats I would have.

If I'd had a choice Auburn would be mine without a shadow of doubt. (Bought mine second hand which already had black leather).

I think that Auburn would be great, but if you are looking for a negative, it would be that it might be tougher to sell down the road. Many people do not want an "orange" interior.

If you are leasing, this is obviously not an issue.
