SSII w/ Gold Brown Full Leather?

JTO24 · 05-01-2015, 10:33 AM

What do you think? There aren't a ton of pictures of gold brown on the forum but I did find this:

http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1006832

I'm on the fence.. I like SO enough but I have Fox Red leather now and I am looking for a change. If I go SSII, I'll most likely go Black Full leather but Gold Brown intrigues me as well.

Your thoughts?

I sorta like that leather color although I'd never pair it with SSII. I'm also not sure it's worth more (assuming it does cost more) than the "standard" Individual brown options, which are pretty nice.

That's a pretty nice combo, but personally, I'd consider Mineral Grey with Gold Brown. Now that would also be a sick color combo.

I'm on mobile so I can't multi quote but I'm pretty set on Silverstone for my f80 (barring any new color additions) and I originally thought of pairing it with SO but I want a change from my current Fox Red. I'll probably sick with full black leather with SS.

Or I'll just splurge and do grey/black with gold brown.

Please splurge

That combination would look incredible.

lol you're not helping!

Yeah, SS and that brown Individual leather would look pretty darn good IMHO.

I am in the same situation! Waiting to place my order for 16 and I know that I want SS exterior for sure and was going back and forth with the interior options I should go with. Blk is always safe but too damn boring IMO and I feel like SS interior is sweet but also a pain in d A$$ to maintain. So that leaves me with SO which I think looks stunning with it. Since u already had fox red and if u want to stay away than I would go individual. To me SS wit SO is total win!

Haha I do really like the SO leather and am still considering it! We'll see.. the gf doesn't like the SO that much (booo) but she hasn't seen it in person really. I like the contrast of the SO with SS.. sigh back to the drawing board.

It's the same price as Amaro, Nutmeg, and Cohiba. It's just that for some reason people rarely spring for Gold Brown. I'm giving it some serious thought, but its color really seems to change depending on the lighting and I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how it might look in real life. Sometimes it looks like a slightly more orange version of Amaro and other times it looks like a basketball.

Then def splurge! That would be worth it.

But I do think SSII/Gold Brown > SSII/SO

I like the MG/GB combo a lot but I've always wanted SS; and I see a ton of MG series cars around my neck of the woods.

We'll see.. lol for the price of Grey Black/ Gold Brown I could add the perf. exhaust to my SS/Black or SO order.

luvmybluesbb · 05-01-2015, 12:25 PM

I am pretty satisfied with my boring black leather...I considered the other 2 but i have an ocd problem seeing black marks and stuff that may appear out of nowhere

Individual color > M Perf exhaust

Yea, your car is pretty much perfect! The full leather in black does look good with the contrast stitching.

I can go along with that. You can always retrofit the exhaust, but the color scheme is there to stay!

tareemaa · 05-01-2015, 01:55 PM

I saw go for it, gray black looks awesome, that would be a sick combo.

Mpressiv3 · 05-01-2015, 02:03 PM

Looks good to me. It's the E46 M3 with the cinnamon color

JTO24 · 05-01-2015, 02:20 PM

Well I think I'm staying with SSII because luvmybluesbb

Silverstone BMW F80 M3 - M Performance Exhaust & Diffuser Installation 14 by european auto source, on Flickr

It just looks so good here! I love Grey Black but after looking at some pics, the CF roof blends in too much for me.. I like the contrast

I just looked up TiAg over cinnamon e46 M3's and ehh but Silver Gray over Gold Brown F80

that is now a top contender!

hahaha awesome

i added a few items today at EAS i am sure you will see pics soon

tareemaa · 05-01-2015, 05:22 PM

Dude the silverstone looks pretty awesome in that pics, if not gray black, do what you originally intended, that interior will look great!

I was down to ssII or mw and wet with the mw but you can go wrong with either, I love how they change hues depending on light. My car had blue parking lights on it last night and I could stop looking at it.

GrahamDobbins · 05-01-2015, 05:29 PM
