Next week I will accomplish my order of a 525 but I'm not sure about the interior color. It's Carbon black with M-sport and the Alucube trims. How does Auburn look like with the Alucube? Or is black a better choice. Has anyone pics of the auburn/alucube combination?

hi. auburn will be very nice with carbon black. \i had black interior with my carbon black first and it was way too dark. so i had it changed to terra cotta - similar to auburn but lighter.

pics included

Black/beige (black floor mats) and nice woods would be my number 1 choise.

B/B/B is hot and black/auburn/alu is allright.


Sporty or style?

I feel black leather/alucube is a rather ordinary choice and if auburn/alucube looks nice I think I prefer that. Because I really like the warm auburn color and it will be a little bit special. It would be nice if anyone could bring up some interior pics of alucube trim together with auburn leather.

Try the Search mode tri.

Also look into the Gallery at the opening page.

I almost sure you find all the options by browsing this Forum.

I have black with beige interior. The first thing I did was to take out the beige floor mats and put black ones in. To me it was a big difference. This is my first black car and my first beige interior. As first I wasn't too sure....now I love it.
