I know we've had a similar poll before, but now there are six options to choose from and more members on the forum I thought I'd start another just out of interest.
I've already had Maple but my fave is now Light Poplar.

Anthracite maple!

That's funny Stream - your car doesn't have the compartment below the DVD slot... is that normal in the US? I thought all the US cars were all like mine with an open "box" with a rubberized bottom surface.

Open box under only with navigation business.

well as usual, we in the good ole US of A :whistle: have but 2 choices, Dark Pop and Antricite...i agree that the Light Poplar is very nice, but im not a wood man so I will convert mine to alu cube :thumbsup:

I have nav--in the US the open box is only there when you don't have nav (I suppose that's where they put the nav module).

Light Poplar is now an option in the US (Model Year 2006 cars, September+). I personally still prefer the darker version though.

Stream, The pic of your maple does look nice. The reason why I wasn't so keen on mine was the fact that it was only on the main dash area and centre console being an early car. Yours like my new one has it all over the place.

I prefer BMW Individual trims

I have Light Poplar on my 2002 X5, but for my 05 E61 there was not that option so I had to take Dark Poplar. I prefer it now at least in my E61, for my X5 I still really like the Light Poplar.
