I have seen it in person plenty of times being that I sell the cars and its the worst trim with beige IMO. If you have a coupe and dont want the light or dark wood get the gray poplar. IMO the gray poplar looks outstanding with the beige interior. In a 4 door either wood looks better than aluminum. I also like aluminum better than wood and still fell this way. Silver trim does not match with beige Just think about it. Once again this is my opinion and I am not trying to offend anyones taste.

Interesting note kinda on topic here - on the factory tour, it was mentioned that of the 200,000+ cars produced in Munich, there are exactly 1.5 cars (let the jokes begin) that are identical.

Essentially, there aren't 2 cars that go out with the same body/engine/interior/exterior color combination/etc in a given year.

Usually I don't comment on people's personal preference for colors and options and such. But in this case I must say... YUCK!

I love aluminum trim, but get wood trim with the beige, or go for saddle/black combo which has more contrast.

Agree with everyone else. Bad choice, move on to your next option.

I have this combo...

I always had black on black trim on black roof (damn I miss my E46 ).
Time for change, and i don't regret it 1 minute!

You had more of a cocoon feel with the black interior. Now it's so spacious, I think it's great!

I chose for the aluminum because the wood trim's makes it an old man's car in combo with the beige...

1 year and 60.000 km later, i still think it's a very nice combo!

Neither the dark gray of the dash or the silver of the trim compliment beige at all.

What is that big warning symbol on the center console ashtray? No smoking sign?

Sorry, the aluminum/beige just does not work. Not enough contrast at all..

Beige should go with something dark.. dark wood/walnut wood trim~

Aluminum trim works the best with red or black leather IMO.
