Amaro Brown (come on put up pics!)

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
So I know at least 3 guys on here who should have had delivery based on their build dates by now. . .

WHERE THE F ARE THE PICS!?!

My car got delayed 3 more days and is currently "in the paint shop" due for completion 10/21. This should fall right in line with me taking delivery around 11/9 when I get home from my last biz trip of the year to Thailand!

Surely I can't be the first to post pics then it's in forever!

Side note: any other individual interior pics will also be welcomed wholeheartedly.

If you want pics of my amaro brown interior, you should have driven over to bremerhaven during your ED and taken them yourself

My car, already 4 weeks out of production, is being held at port for another 9 weeks or so waiting for the wheel "retrofit". The situation couldn't suck any more.

I really want to see amaro brown, nutmeg, and the special stitching interiors.

It's cool, but looks a lot like the lighter brown interior on the X5. Not that that's a bad thing...just comparing it something more standard already out there. How much extra do you pay for individual interior?

If you have to ask...

J/k

I don't recall how much extra it is, but we don't have the option of getting X5 interior colors. So if you want brown, you've got to pony up the loot for it

Understood...just wondering what the charge was. I do like it though.

I was just messing with ya. I want to say that full individual leather is $1500 more expensive than full leather in the standard colors.

For me, not only do I love a brown leather interior, but the color scheme is different with amaro brown. You don't get the whole striped theme that you get with the standard colors. Instead, you get solid color door panel insets and lower dash.

I know you were...just responding to your comment on having to pay for it since we can't get X5 colors. Didn't realize you get that contrasting color scheme....very cool.

Oh YUCK! You got hit by that nonsense? My car is currently "undergoing its quality check" in the status, so I guess we can kind of find out if later production vehicles are ending up with non-recalled wheels or if I'm going to be stuck waiting as well.

I'm basically in and out of the US until Nov 8th so for now it's not bugging me that much. Once I'm back I'm going to start kicking myself.

On a side note I think my swapalease sale is going to go through. Meeting a guy and his wife Sunday Nov. 9th for lunch and as long as my 6 is as clean as I said it is (its cleaner) then I'm all set.

I am a bit anxious to get a few weeks of my car in before the temperature is fully below 40 degrees all the time. As a wise man once said, "Winter is coming. . ."

sorry boss...i don't see it at all. To me cohiba is a color for a nice 7 series, maybe a 6 GC. Definitely don't see it with signal green... just my opinion though, not my car. Signal green works with black...period IMHO.

I agree. Hell Signal Green + cloth or Alcantara would be epic. GT3RS-esque

Yup, that wood ruins the whole car and I discount the entirety of the interior. Looks like a 1998 Mitsubishi Galant.
