My Ride: 2011 F10 528i - Imperial Blue, Oyster/Black, Premium, Premium 2, Cold Weather, Xenons.
About to pull the trigger on a 528i, Imperial Blue, Oyster and Black interior, Premium, Premium 2, Xenon, Cold weather... but here is my quandry:
Anthrasite wood trim or the light wood? (I think the dark walnut looks best, but is not an option on the 528i.) Any thoughts?
Also, is there a compelation thread of all interior and exterior colors?
Thanks,

For me I'd try to see all the color combos in the flesh before ordering.

My Ride: 2010 523i. Alpine white, dakota leather, 8 speed auto, VDC, bluetooth, HID lights, parking sensors, sport seats, black window trim, tinted rear windows

I have anthracite and oyster/black on an alpine white. I think anthracite offsets the oyster well and then blends nicely with the black bottom where they meet such as on the central console. See the 1st pic below for what I mean.

At least over here we can choose whatever trim.
