Picked up 2020 Dravit Grey Today
Finally picked up my dravit grey m340i. Unfortunately it was raining pretty hard so wasn't able to get any shots in natural light, but I'll be sure to post some when I get a chance.
First Impressions: - Pictures do not do this color justice. In person it looks incredible. - I test drove the m340i several months back and thought it was a great car, but now picking it up and driving it home, it was incredible. Smooth operation, captivating exhaust, quick, and just a joy to drive. - There are a few small things I wish they had included as either standard or optional - electric steering wheel position adjustment instead of manual, electric thigh support adjustment, ventilated seats, merino leather, etc. Overall I'm loving it, and can't wait to actually drive it in some decent weather. |

Thanks everyone! I took a few outdoor pics today since the weather was nice, unfortunately the car's a little dirty from yesterday's heavy rain. But hopefully this captures dravit grey a little better (still doesn't do it justice, you just have to see it in person to appreciate it)

I really like the open-pore oak trim, I feel like it's a very clean look. I didn't want a brown wood trim because I felt like that would compete with the mocha color and saturate the cabin with too much brown, so the black-wood look really gives it good clean contrast without being too noisy. It's also got just enough texture to show that it is in fact a wood-based trim and not just a matte black. In regards to various lighting, since it doesn't have any gloss, it doesn't provide much reflection, so the look stays relatively consistent regardless of different lighting conditions. The other option I considered was the aluminum tetragon trim, but I liked the classiness of the open-pore oak. I felt it gave the 3 series interior a bit more upscale look.

Congrats! TBII is a great color, if it wasn't for Dravit that was definitely my next choice.

Dravit Grey is pretty similar to Space Grey, which was one of my favorite BMW colors!
