Your Strong Opinion Needed: Opal White or Golden Brown
I need* your strong opinion on an interior for a 2018 ZCP Tanzanite 'vert w/ black satan wheels
Golden Brown  or Opal White  * I know: I need to make my own choice, it's a personal choice, etc etc. All true, but people's strong opinions make me react one way or another because I'm kind of a dick and that will help me make my choice

Well i am a little bias as i have GB.. it is a great color with the blue..and not alot of people have it. the White gives it a nice open feeling...BUT I DO NOT WANT TO CLEAN THAT SHIT..haha its like having a new pair of white sneakers. the minute you get them a little dirty well you know never looks as good. But my GB has pulled some of the dye from my jeans and leather jacket..but was not to bad to clean..either way it will look great.

I love the look of the opal white, so voted for that (but I dont have to take care of it). I am not brave enough (or diligent enough in my car care) to take care of white interior.
I really dont like the brown interior myself, especially with blue. Its too "orange" for me. |

OK, strong opinion. Def GB for me. I am a bit old school and have always loved the classic "tan" leather interior on Italian sports cars, Bentley's, etc. Especially with a dark blue exterior. Classic color combo with understated class to me. Find some more pics of a Ferrari with Tour de France blue over Tan interior (like this one) and the decision is easy. The Opal might be nice in certain situations, but with Tanzanite I'd go for GB all day long.

Satan Wheels - who cares about the color - holy hell!
 Looked hard at Golden Brown but it has a strong orange cast that is not for me (as opposed to Amaro) - so if these are the only two colors then Opal White it is, just be prepared for the cleaning routine  but I know you keep cleaning wipes in your car anyway

Since you asked, my strong opinion isn't either of your choices, it's Nutmeg, Amaro Brown, or Cohiba . I have both German and UK M3/M4 brochures and both have a picture of Nutmeg, Golden Brown, Opal White, Amaro Brown, and Cohiba Brown hides folded on top of each other. Opal White and Golden Brown are the weakest of the five, with the Nutmeg and Cohiba being deep, rich browns, and Amaro Brown being a medium brown. Golden Brown is too orange. Opal White, well, the day that you take delivery is the best that that interior is ever going to loook, it's all downhill after that. I think that Opal White would be too much of a contrast for the black 666 wheels. I'd never get a white interior. That's my strong opinion.
We may go for the Nutmeg or Cohiba Brown in my wife's 2018 M3 next year.

 But I also figure, if i can't figure out what color I want, why would I ask a complete stranger's opinion? They're never even going to see the car, let alone put up with for 3+ years!

I happen to like amaro brown of the browns better than golden (because golden looks orangish to me), but I like standard black... but thats boring I know.
The opal looks the best but I could not live with it because I would stress constantly. So if you are looking at browns with tanzanite, I would go amaro. |

 As for why I'd ask strangers: (a.) I DEFINITELY know I don't want the opinions of anybody I know, and (b.) Do you ever see a movie and think, "yeah that was ok", and then you read a stellar review and think, "what a moron! that movie SUCKED!" Like that teen-angst emo star wars movie for example? Anyway, that's why I like hearing other people's opinions.

I love the white, but I'd be afraid how dirty it might get.

My strong opinion would be Silverstone or Amaro.
If you want bright leather, Silverstone is more sporty and: it's an M exclusive, don't forget that!! Opal white comes with every regular 3er as well. You already chose a non-M paint -> at least go with an M interior!! :-) (just my opinion) |

Oh yeah, and in ref to Cohiba (albeit off topic), another I considered, but it has a purple hue that I suspect you either love or hate, no in between! Only suits certain exterior colors imo. Fond memories of the pain of leather color choice - always willing to share !
