What's the difference between full and extended? Is it only that little strip on the dash?

Upper and lower part of the dash, upper part of the doors (front and rear). It's actually quite a lot and makes the car look and feel much more luxury.

SO plus Sonoma Beige. I am very happy with the combo; no regrets.
Black gets too hot (even in the PNW), and the SO wasn't an exact color match (at least to my eye).

Sonoma or Amaro Brown would look great

Black with SO stitching

or Carbon structure.

Cant lose with any of those 3 leather colors for SO or Carbonstructure if your good without Leather

have you narrowed it down yet hl0m4n ?

the problem is i don't like black and the closest alternative i found and like is cohiba brown which i believe would make a great combo.

but im also torn on amaro and golden brown; sometimes i see these colors working but not as much as cohiba brown...

what would you guys pick?

I have full cocaine white on YMB.

I sat in an SO/SS M3 and it was an interesting look! (not in a bad way at all). I just think SS takes too much maintenance (and I have an MG car, so it was going to be SO interior no matter what!).

On that note, I think Amaro Brown would look amazing with SO... but as others have pointed out SO/SO is not 'too loud' and actually works well from what I've seen on the forums!

Also can't forget the carbonstruture cloth. I've seen it in person in a YMB M3 and it looks right at home with the car! Definitely doesn't look cheap as some may assume

Definitely silverstone for me.

I'm in NY with SO/Amaro F80. PM me if you wanna see the car I'm happy to show ya. I love the combo and debated all three. The only option I haven't seen yet that may be even cooler is black w SO stitching which is also a semi individual option.

Anyway, PM me your whereabouts I'll be in Long Island this weekend and next.

I am trying to make a similar decision for my M3, only I am also considering nutmeg instead of golden brown. Subscribing to this thread!

SO and speed cloth for me. Honesty I wasn't sold till I saw speed cloth in person a few weeks back. It's awesome and has the added potential benefit of not making my sweat through my shirt on a hot summers day. No ventilated seats option is a real bummer for those of us larger dudes who need some cooling on a hot summers day.

The Amaro Brown would go great with Alpine White or Mineral White but I would want any of these colors with SO. The best interior color with SO is the SO/black full leather. This combination is spectacular!!
