Gentlemen, I can't figure out what kind of option is WHITE leather color.
Is it available to all models?
Anyone have any idea how this works?

This is what i'm talking about - alpine white leather:


(i know this is an X6M interior, but i remember seeing the same white leather in e60)

That's Silverstone interior for the ///M cars... not available on regular cars in the US, might be a individual option in Europe

Looks like the Silverstone II. I chose "build your own", after choosing an M6 on the bmwusa.com website, to see the options for the interior.

This color is not white. It's actually a very light Grey/Silver. It appears white especially because of the contrast with the black.

It looks stellar on the photos.

How does it look in real life? This good too?

It looks awesome. I know someone in my neighborhood with a Silverstone II interior X6M (with Piano Black trim, it looks unreal), and he loves it, but says its an absolute BITCH to keep clean. He uses it to shuttle his family, and his interior was kind of beat up after only 7 months lol.

I would only get this interior on a Sunday car, not a daily driver.

On the E46 M3's with BMW's individual program you could order a Lotus White or Ecru interior color.
