it is a nice combo if you can handle that bright red leather. also, you might want to consider black sapphire, the metallic flake mixed with black looks fantastic!! i think the metallics are worth the xtra money.

i would also recommend the gray poplar wood over the aluminum trim as it looks more classy! hope that helps!

Nothing beats the look of a Jet Black Bimmer!

I have no regrets on my choice of color and will do it again.

Very nice combo.

IMO, the Coral Red Interior looks great with the following exterior colors:
  • Jet Black
  • Black Sapphire
  • Alpine White
  • Space Grey
  • Sparkling Graphite

If you do a search, you will find quite a few pictures from member's cars with that interior color and various exterior.

Honestly, there are many "good looking" colors.

But Jet Black, IMO, is DEFINITELY a head-turner.

as long as you are okay with the maintenance of a black car go for it!

Black Bimmer with tint looks so classy

Black Bimmer with tint and black wheels w/polished lip =

There are a couple threads in the picture forums with people that got jet black/coral and it looks great.

I went with space gray/coral red/gray poplar

I love the coral red int as well but thought it may get tiresome after a while. I also thought it'll be easier in the long run to resell the car with black interior...
