For one thing you can not order Truffle with Anthracite Maple.
I saw 1st hand a Truffle Brown interior; and subsequently ordered my 545 with it.
That's not it!

I can't wait to send pictures of my car when it arrives.
Cheers everyone

Hello Rawn

did you change the colour?

By the way it is really strange (considering the few available colours, both exterior and interior) that BMW in some countries restrict the possible combinations.
For example in Italy Blue and Truffle or Olivin and Beige are not allowed as they are in Belgium.

I'm not crazy after all. I went to the dealer and saw our (Canadian) truffle brown. It is much darker than the one pictured by the previous message. I don't have a pictur but I can scan the BMW brochure which shows the leather options. I realise that it won't be completely accurate, but it clearly show a darker brown.

I'm not naucious anymore.
