Nice car, thats the same combo that I have on order. I can't stand black interior myself, its hot in the summer and the dark color hides all the detail of the interior.

Adam, is your bmw dealer really small? How the heck is it that he doesn't have one car of any type that has Gray interior. Unbelievable!!! I couldn't find a car with the Maple wood, but it seems my dealer won't spec a car with maple wood for some reason.
It's definitely not a large dealership but the problem is that down here in South Florida they have almost no inventory of 5 series BMW's on the lots. I've been to 2 dealers down here. The 1st one didn't even have a 550 I could test drive. The 2nd dealer where I eventually bought from had one which was sold after I test drove it.

The thing that got me was there was a 750 in the showroom which was Titanium Silver with Grey leather and the Grey was almost black. I assumed it was the same color in the 550 but apparently I was wrong.

adamrogers,

You will love the combo. it is like having two cars for the price of one.
Night - looks like a nice black.
Day- monaco blue!

Well this is black Dakota leather in the M-Sport and it looks more like charcoal, but it is black.
