is plat gray very dark? is it difficult to keep clean? do we see the swirl marks on it after a car wash that you typically find on a black car? questions questions questions 
Up here in Scandinavia it's very dark in the winter, but it's rewarding colour as it sparkles in a whole different way than Space Grey.
Just as Heli G. I also first opted for Space Grey, but when I say Platinum Grey I immdiately new this was the colour for me. A beautiful colour as it works both as "distinguished" colour as a "sporty" colour (as it has been "approved" for the M-package!).
But, as with all dark(er) colours you'll need to keep it clean to get something back. It's not maintenance free.

So would PG look terrible with Natural Brown and either Light Poplar or Bamboo? I really want the brown leather but it just doesn't seem like it works with PG. I've thought about going with Monaco Blue as that would work well but I am liking PG more and more. It just seems that Black works best and I really don't want that.

I think it looks very hot - PG/Nautral Brown with bamboo. My next car is suppose to be a 528i platnium gray with gray leather with bamboo wood trim, so im anxious to see how it will look together. I have Monaco Blue now with Black leather and have no problem with it, expect for the usual scratches!
