Making the order next week! My spec. SO or MG??

[PeteRock]

So Ive managed to get about 12% off MSRP, and about to make an order next week.

Here is my spec so far:

M3
Competition package
DCT
silverstone interior with carbon fibre trim
HUD
HK
adaptive headlights/high beam assist
rear window tints


I am still somewhat undecided about whether to go with SO with silverstone or MG with silverstone.

One other concern is that I am worried silverstone interior could get damaged/stained easily. Thoughts? Should I just be safe and get SO with all black interior?

Obviously color is a personal preference but I would never do MG/SS. I think if I was going MG I would do MG/SO or MG/Black. I like SO/SS as well.

Light color interiors definitely require a little more care and maintenance if you want to keep them looking like new.

SO w/ silver stone. I've heard the silver stone holds up really well. Just take care of the leather periodically...

MG with silver stone is too neutral.

Sakhir is a great color, and probably the most "chameleon" like among all the different metallic options. That said, it is my least favorite color. It is just too orange/copper in some lighting. But it certainly is a paint that will wow you in the sunlight.

I disagree that silverstone and mineral gray would be too "neutral", I think it is an outstanding combination because it is neutral. You can add any color accents/wheels etc... Sakhir would be a love hate type of thing for me, I would enjoy it in the sun but not at other times. On the other hand MG/SS would always be great looking. Hope gregfeightytwo doesn't mind sharing his photos here.

I wrestled with the same thing as I originally decided on MG but ended up switching to SO.

Lots of good feedback on SO can be seen here.

I got mine through the Diplomatic sales program so I'm not an expert on pricing off of MSRP but 12% off seems like a pretty good deal to me.....best of luck with your new car and the agony of picking the right color with no regrets!

First thing i would say you should manage to push the discount upto 17% have a look at current offers on dealer websites life Harry Fairbairn Glasgow , for me SO

Sakhir! I have SO over SO

[ZMM_OMG]

SS interior will require more maintenance, but it's totally worth it. It feels so much more special than the unending monotony of an all-black interior.

As for exterior, the world is filled with boring grey cars. Stand out from the crowd and get SO.

I had the same dilemma on interior choice however I went with opal white with YMB. As stated previously, takes some care but totally worth it. Owned it for 6 months now and interior still looks flawless.

I have the MG with SS interior and whenever I see a SO I wish I had gone with that color. I would recommend getting the SO/SS setup. I think that would be awesome! Don't get me wrong, MG is a great color but something about that SO just takes my breath away whenever I see one in person.

Thanks

Im getting this car to have some fun whilst I'm young, I think orange suits the nature of the car 😄

I think i will go with SO/SS after looking at some peoples pics of SO cars. Also when I saw the colour in the show room I thought it looked great. Before I saw the colours in real life I was thinking YMB but then was loving the SO
