First Real Life Pics of Chestnut!

MI6 · 10-02-2008, 01:19 PM

Courtesy of Autospies here are the first LIVE pics of Chestnut Brown leather from the Paris Auto Show on a 330d demonstrator car for Efficient Dynamics.

As you can tell it is much more orange than Terra was. My first thought was......

But, then I remembered these pics were taken with a flash- notorious for NOT bringing a true feel for the actual color. In fact Chestnut looks very similar to Fox Red taken with a flash so I suspect that this color is probably similar to the M3's Fox Red........

That's brown? seem like red to me. but yea, the flash could've done that perhaps.

In the first picture, what does it say on that hole section near the side of the dash? I don't own a 3 series, but I'd still like to know
