Saddle brown vs Amaro

Not see Amaro in the flesh yet. Some pictures looks great.
Others looks kind of orange.

Would it be worth having for an extra £1200??

Anyone got Amaro Brown?

Not sure if you have seen this, but this M4 has Amaro Brown http://usedcars.bavarianbmw.co.uk/sh...cmdc=se_ce_re_

Can't say it looks much different from Saddle TBH

That does sound nice, is the dash going to be leather as well, that's assuming you've ordered a GC, sorry can't remember

I have Mocha Nappa in mine and it is a darker shade which I think looks much better than the bottom burp browns.

Totally agree.

Those others look like cheap Indian corrected leather.

Like a pair of shoes from Primark rather than Loakes.

Hey Gizze, long time mate, trust you to bring "Loakes" into it.

I have dealt with enough Indian factories over the years that show me nice burnished leather samples of shoes and when they go into customers they look like cheap brown plastic and nothing like the samples.

At least with Loakes the finished shoe looks like the sample.
