I have black leather interior with the Bamboo Anthracite trim but I don't like it. I have bought it second hand, but if I had the choice I would definitely have taken the alu-trim.

Now im realy doubting the choice I made......
My other option instead of the bamboo would be the black trim with the black interior, any 1 think i should call my dealer and try to cahnge it or should I leave it the way it is. Also do you think a 16 year old will like the color, I want a "ballin" look for the car, does bamboo say "ballin"? lol

I ordered the same 1 for 535xi, and im not sure if I should change it or not...might be to late now
keep having second thoughts
It's got "ballin'" written all over it compared to the other "old man" poplar woods! You'll like it once you see it in person. From all of the pics I had seen on here of the bamboo, I would have never ordered it. However the 550i I almost picked up had it, and I really liked it. Here are some pics from that one.

It's not a bad choice! I originally was going to go with diamond black but they had one in alberta with every option I chose other then the trim (dark bamboo) so I had them ship it over. Not a big deal to me, I actually ended up liking it alot when I saw it in person. I'll try and post pics tomorrow..

Yes, that is the Bamboo Anthracite. In bright light it looks just like other pictures in this thread. Cant see the wood grain in the pictures I posted but they are there
You just made my day because I still can't believe how nice it looks from the pictures you took. I even maximize it and tried to closely examine the washout look I get from looking at the bamboo and it just isn't there. I don't mind the trim around the shifter but it seems like it's a bit different from the bamboo trim on the dash from other pictures; even though I know it's the same. Drlev's pics makes it look a bit more bare-able. Good thing I went with the black interior I guess.

To each his own, but I think the anthracite bamboo is very classy. Your color selection should be stunning: blk sapphire, blk leather, anthracite bamboo.
wow that is the 1st time I seen this and 100% not my cup of tea.
thank god we dont get this in HK.

I have the bamboo and the black dakota. I saw all of the woods in advance and was looking for a bamboo car after that. Looks far more contemporary than the other wood finishes.
