Terracotta Boston Leather?

Peebz · 03-03-2008, 10:27 PM

Even though this "Terracotta Boston Leather" is not listed on the website as a feature it was in car buzzard's You tube video : Fast forward to 2:47 in... http://www.youtube.com/v/u36dXBpEmg4

And it is also listed in the U.S. spec 1-series book from the dealership that it is an option on the car. Why not on the website? And is it available still as an option?

I appreciate it!

E82tt6 · 03-03-2008, 10:32 PM

Terra is. It's a Priority One option.

Peebz · 03-03-2008, 10:36 PM

what is a priority one option?

kfiducia · 03-03-2008, 11:22 PM

an priority one car is a car that is already sold, as in, ordered and has a down payment. priority one or P1 options are things only available if specified, they will not come on any non-P1 cars.

I will definitely be getting the terracotta brown if I get a 135i. I have natural brown leather in my 325Ci now and I love it.

PDZ01 · 03-04-2008, 12:36 PM

I ordered it for my 135i with Saphire Black Metallic and Poplar Grey trim. All you have to do is ask and you can order it. I saw it in a new 328i last week and it looks great.

Priority 1 options can be found here:

Only Series 1 Priority 1 options are Terracotta and Lemon leather.

Thanks guys! I appreciate it! Can't wait till I can order mine :roundel:

mrgoochio · 03-04-2008, 05:48 PM

Just so there is no confusion, can somebody specify the differences between Terra Leather and Terracotta Leather? Which one comes with the 135i?

I ask because there seem to be some discrepancies between the posts in this thread as well as the info from BMW. Young1er says he ordered Terra while the brochures say Terracotta.. on top of that, the website lists none.

Thud · 03-04-2008, 06:13 PM

I ordered Terra with my SGM.

I think Terra is the same as Terracotta (in fact the OC tells me I have "Terracotta")

larryn · 03-04-2008, 06:22 PM

it's terra... check my info out here.

mrgoochio · 03-04-2008, 06:38 PM

Thanks larryn, anyone with side by side comparison shots of Terra and Terracotta?

I made the same check to make sure the code was for Terra and not terracotta before i ordered mine

Peebz · 03-04-2008, 10:25 PM

In the brochure is says Terracotta and it has a picture of the color. Could Terra be an abbreviation of Terracotta or perhaps a European feature? Brochure link: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showt...light=brochure

I also put up some pictures of what I believe to be Terracotta. These pictures are from a European spec.

320Devil · 03-05-2008, 11:26 AM

The military price sheet says LWB8 "Terracotta" is the color option. If it Terracotta is the color in the picture above, then I'm changing my order from Lemon to that. Looks pretty good.

larryn · 03-05-2008, 11:55 AM

That pic is of "LWB8 - Terra", in every market in the world, except called "LWB8 - Terracotta" in US brochures and in their ordering system.

I have it in my e90 now, and love it. I ordered it for my 135i too.

320Devil · 03-05-2008, 02:37 PM

Thanks larryn. Now I need to contact my rep and change my options around...hopefully for the last time!

GatoGrande · 03-05-2008, 02:48 PM

yes! I have this interior with the SGM exterior, can't wait!!!!

SlickShift · 03-05-2008, 04:39 PM

Quick question: Are US spec cars with terra leather going to have gray headliner?

atr_hugo · 03-05-2008, 04:41 PM

^ Quick answer: yes, and I would order terra if we could get an anthracite headliner.
