...Not that I am an expert for floor mats...being from So. Cal and all, but I prefer the "B" mat because of the strip of inset carpet which keeps your shoe from slipping. I've had mats similar to the "A" mat and found my shoe slipping after walking off a ski slope. I do have black coco mats with grey dots on order for our mild, wet, So Cal weather. Hopefully these will be enough to protect the floor until I put the "C's" back on in spring!

I opted for the B floormats. Being in Germany and seeing both...I wanted a better quality floormat. B seemed heavier and more sturdy. Also they have the screw downs to avoid any movement. I love'em. Good mats.

I can't wait to see the pictures (or the car in person). Mine came in yesterday. Now the wait for all of the custom clearances and the PO to make it to Munchen!

No - my local dealer only seems to have the standard velor mats - I havent checked with other dealers yet.

I have "C" in light gray(no fun to keep clean) and bought a set of 4 aftermarket clears (for $8) to keep the gray ones looking nice.

Jay, do UK dealers not have an Accessories Catalog like we in the US have? Surely you can order things like the ski rack, bike rack etc. Go to the Information section of this forum and you will see posted an electronic copy of the catalog. Maybe you can print it out and bring it to your dealer. It has part numbers in it as well that might help them find the mats in their computer system.
