My Ride: Ordered: 530D Touring Silver Gray (A08), Auburn Dakota Leather (LCRK), Maple Wood, Steptronic, Bluetooth, 116 style 17'', Railbars, Sport suspension, Sport stering wheel

I am ordering a 530d E61 Touring but I am really boared by black interiors.
I am considering Truffle Brown (LCTE) which gives more light and it is not so heavy to maintain as Beige.
Has anyone some pictures of Truffle Brown with exterior colours like Silver Gray (A08) and Saphir Black (475) ??
In case you do not know how to post some pictures my e-mail address is antonio.iannizzotto@tin.it
thanks

I have already checked, but, so far, in the members gallery there is Auburn + Silver Gray and not Truffle Brown.

Hi ianni,
I have truffle brown interior with black exterior. I find the auburn a bit stark for a large-ish saloon, would prefer it on a Z4 or E46.
What I like about truffle brown, it's not too dark such that the interior gets dull and feels too warm, important for us here in the tropics, and it's not such a light colour like beige and prone to stains. If you get a glass roof, the additional light from this during the day makes up for the darker tone of the truffle brown vs beige and still gives the cabin a bright and airy feeling.

Don't worry you'll love it.
Note: I don't think the truffle looks good with any of the Silver ext. colours.
Good luck.

[/quote]Rawn, I look forward to your post. That is the same color combination I am considering. I have black exterior with tan interior now, which looks great, but it does show stains. Black interior is just too hot down here in Louisiana, so I like to stick with the lighter colors. Unfortunately, I am in a small market and my dealer does not get a lot of cars with different color combos to look at. I will have to look at EBMCS03's Auburn interior. I am not familiar with it or if it is even available with black exterior.

[/quote]A friend of mine has black exterior with auburn dakota interior and it's amazing!
![W00t](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/w00t.gif)
It's one of the most beautiful interiors I have seen so far. And MUCH nicer then truffle brown.
![Wacko](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/wacko.gif)
Just my 2 cents
I have also seen a silver grey E61 with auburn dakota and it matches pretty nicely!
I have taken some pictures with my mobile:
