Just want to get some inputs.
Which one you like and why? I'm leaning toward Gray but not sure if it's easy to keep clean. Black shows more dust and so hot in summer.
Thanks in advance,

I have gray, and had to go with Black mats due to the GA red clay that stains unmercifully !!! When I purchase another BMW I will buy Black interior on my next go around, (M6).
Hope this helps,

Choice is wonderful but the process of choosing is like one big tease.
I had black cloth in my space gray E46 coupe
and black nappa in my last E60 But then for my new ride could not decide between black on black; black on grey or black on some kinda cream
So eventually I did this............................................:d evil:

Wow. Is that Individual or an available color in Europe?
I would do red in a 135i, Z4, or M3. I went Creme Beige with space gray this time. I had done gray in a 540i and black in an E39 M5.

Nice lighting on that first pic! What settings did you use?
You blew it on the second one.
I don't like black or gray for interiors. I've had both (in cloth) in previous cars and it was just so depressing sometimes. But if those were the only two to choose, I'd pick black. I don't know how you guys do it! And when I see a silver car with a gray leather interior, I just imagine the guy with a .38 in his lap with one bullet and a half empty (<-
) bottle of vodka in the passenger seat going for his final ride...

But this was very nice:
But I really like this in an E60:
I probably should go with something other than silver or gray next time.....
