I think that is the name.
In the US I believe it was discontinued a few years ago now. Such a shame as it was quite a striking interior. I know I always get people commenting on how it looks in mine.

My SA has that same two tone interior with his 08 model, and with comfort seats, so it was still available then ...
I DO wish we had more two toned interior choices, like the beautiful black/silver gray that's available on this year's M5. The black/red combo I have seen in Europe is also extremely sharp.

the LCI combo like that is called Natural brown, and it's a bit different than the auburn. a bit more toned down. i like both. I miss two-tone interiors, my E39 had green leather and black carpets/dash. livens things up a bit from just plain black.
You're right -- sorry about that. Here's a pic of the natural brown he has and that you referenced:

So to summarize everything, there were only 2 types of "brown" leather:
2003-2007 Auburn Dakota
2007-2010 Natural Brown Dakota
Am I correct?
2003-2007 Auburn Dakota
2007-2010 Natural Brown Dakota
Am I correct?
