But actually, the whitebalance is adjusted to the same temp for all pics
Congatulations on taking specific action to lock the white balance.

I also try to in these cases.

What appears to be more the case is not the curvature, however, more the way the exposure has been averaged out resulting in the different intensity levels. For example if Platinum Grey is in fact "near black" in out of three pictures as was posted then it's a clever feat to be nearer silver elsewhere.

Any chance of seeing the Deep Sea Blue compared to the Mystic Blue?

No, I couldn't find any Deep Sea Blue in the box. I'm very curious too.

I wonder if the cream beige will be matched up with black carpets?

The nature brown looks like the truffle brown that was available in the X5...If so, I have seen it in person and its horrible. On a side note that color sample of the Auburn is one of the best I have seen.... They have taken away all my favorite options :'(

Do you have pics of the new dark bamboo trim ?

Thanks for the colour samples! I guess this confirms the interior pictures from a previous thread are natural brown:

I believe that others on here have already decided that those seats are Cream Beige.

You'll also that the two pictures are taken with and without mats (at the minimum) and may even be different interiors. Light can play many tricks.
