I've seen the Trufflebrown Dakota leather on the Bmw.de site and it looks different from the one I looked at in the info pages of this forum.

Certainly, different cameras give different results but I would really like to know which is closer to reality.
Any other pics?
Thanks.

Here are the differences:

The color of E60 forum is pretty close to the real one. The picture of the german forum is not catching the real hue. Moreover, something is wrong in it: the seats and head rests have been chopped away by rats?

The color is really nice, and it also has to br practical. No dirt will be visible.
It also gives nice contrast to the black interior details.
But it needs the braun wood parts, it wouldn't go with silver nor aluminium.

With a black car the Trufflebrown interior must look like thousand bucks.
Stylish and cosy.

I just wish someone at BMWUSA could provide some explanation as to why they forbid Americans from ordering this interior color. :'( That is one beautiful looking car.
