Anyone going for Lemon interior?

Love, love this interior color but it's only available with darker exterior colors, which succks because that's not what I'd ever want. So then something to admire:

I love the Lemon interior with a nice dark exterior but I just think it would be to hard to keep clean long term. It's stunning though when you see it

I really like lemon, but I suspect it would be a real PITA to keep clean.

Did that picture come from the new brochure? If so are there more? Like the car in different colors?

The M wheel looks thicker and the shifter looks shorter in that pic :biggrin:

That comparison just goes to show how much more upscale the interior can look with the two tone leather.

Actually, it's the other way around this time. The US will be getting the M-Sport package standard on the 135i while it is optional elsewhere in the world.

If the Lemon is available (it isn't on the E92 335 coupe). I'll get it. I love the 2-tone look.

I would like a 2-tone look for the seats themselves (maybe grey in the middle and charcoal for the bolsters/sides)

It's not available on any 3 series now but I think you can order a car with it.

As much as I keep telling myself it would get to dirty the Lemon interior is just gorgeous. I figure I have a year to talk myself out of it:roundel:

The "Cream Beige" interior on the 335i Coupe seems to be similar to the Lemon available for the 1er as it is pictured on the website:

I was refering to the interior bits like the M wheel, shifter, dead pedal and door sils. None of those pieces show in the BWM NA vidios of the 135i but they are in that pic of the lemon interior.

For the US I think the sport pkg refers to the body kit, suspension and brakes only.
