I have ordered a new titanium silver E61 520dAT with black dakota leather interior, but i'm not sure about the interior trims. Should i take the silver high gloss or black high gloss trims? If someone here have a E60/E61 with black high gloss, please post some pictures...

Should i take this one?


..or this one?


Here is the car.. (future mods: 20" Toora, tinted windows, Eisenmann 2x76mm)


Thanks!

 

None, because I think the plastic doesn't do the interior any good. Personally I'll opt for the brushed aluminium!

 

i agree, but the brushed aluminum is to expensive. It cost 800 USD. The car is already to expensive with comfort seats, glass roof, navigation professional, lights package, bluethoot telephone.. and much more.. And with 20" on summer, tinted windows and new exhaust cost the var 129 000 USD..

Norway is not a cheap country

 

I've seen the black high-gloss trim in combination with natural brown leather (or similar shade) in a 3er E92 Coupe and it looked fantastic. I thought it would look like a cheap version of Piano Black Individual trim, but IMHO its not cheap looking and is a good match with the other materials. It would be my choice of the two standard trims offered.

With the glass-roof, you could also combine it with black leather -- i.e. the interior won't be too dark. (I speak from experience!)

 

Why don't you drop the comfort seats and go for the sport seats with brushed alu instead. I am particularly fond of that combi in my car...

 

Here is the black gloss interior posted by one of the member recently on his E61,so you will get an idea how it would look like in yours

Hi,I'm the owner of the car with the black trim. Must say, doesn't look as too much plastic at all as opposed to the silver-gloss trim. If you go with the silver, take the metal brush.

I went for the black gloss because there are enough silver accents in the dash (the sport steer, i-drive operating knob, the silver plate around the automatic shifter., around the airco knobs, around the start/stop button, ...)

Personally i felt that if the trim is also silver, it's too much silver. I understand this is only a matter of personal taste but since you have doubts, an I had hem too, I must say that I'm so very content with the choice I made.

Good luck !
