M135i - colour advice! ?
Hi all - looking at an M135i to replace my 997 C2S - but cannot decide on the colour combination! My favourites are:
- Mineral Grey / Ivory - Sapphire Black / Ivory - Glacier Silver / Black All with the streamline wood interior. I know this is a very personal thing and looks are in the eye of the beholder - but what views are out there on these?? Any comments most welcome! |

I've always found MG a bit dull unless it's spotless and a sunny day, SB looks great when it's clean but a it's a pain to keep looking clean, can't say I've actually seen a GS 1 series in the flesh, but as you said it's a personal thing, I've always liked EB but some think it's a bit loud, I like the ivory interior over other colours and that's what I went for even though it needs cleaning once a month, not really a problem as a quick rub with a leather wipe does the job

Valencia Orange which is an M colour and only recently has it been offered for 1-2 series. I don't like the ivory interior go black

Mineral gray + coral red
Does wood and M135i fit in the same sentence?

Of your preferences I'd probably go for the mineral grey with oyster interior.

Thanks for all the replies guys - I saw an SB / Coral car at Goodwood today and definitely think the MG is nicer. Coral isn't for me - it's lovely but a bit too much - so I think it's MG/Oyster with streamline for me!!!
