Will mocha brown interior work with Gold exterior?

Hi all

I'm keen on the Gold exterior paint, but can't decide between the black leather or mocha leather.

I think I'd like the mocha interior, esp its contrasts with the black parts of the interior (like the dash top, and centre console)

Will the mocha be okay with the Gold paintwork?


thanks

Its not to my taste … but I think that will work really well.

There is a great colours thread usually in lots of the more established (read out in the market longer) forums.

Eg M3/M4 including individual....I could look through these for days (wife comment he DOES!)

You might luck out and see a similar combo with Austin Yellow for example.

I don't think a bright yellow/gold will contrast well with the brown interior. Personally I think the best contrast would be the Gold with oyster (white) leather.

Hi there,

I've got an X2 in Galvanic Gold. I went for the black leather after considering the mocha and the red. Had the red been coral red, I would have gone for it, but it's a lurid red.

The white stitching in the black leather is lovely and the paint colour drifts depending on the daylight, ranging from a liquid metallic yellow to a proper gold.

Regards,
Tony.

thanks Tony... how does the Gold look under cloud/shade?

I'm so tempted by that paint colour (but still keen on Oyster interior as I'm not getting sunroof and feel the all-black interior might be too dark for my taste)

Is yours the Msport or Msport X?

cheers
