Question Red/Black M Sport seats vs Black Perforated Veganza

So I was all set to go with the X1 M35i with Black Sapphire Metallic exterior and Black Perforated Veganza interior, but now have the opportunity to get one with Frozen Pure Grey Metallic exterior and Red/Black Bicolor Perforated Veganza M Sport seats (for a bit more $$ obviously).

I think I'd really like the Frozen Pure Grey Metallic exterior, but am not so sure about the red/black seats. Obviously this ends up being a pretty personal choice, but just wanted to see if anyone else had any thoughts about the red/black seats? I'm not a super flashy type of guy (although I know the grey exterior is flashier than the black).

Thanks!

I would not care about the seats as much as the paint.
Google BMW Frozen Paint.

I bought my X1 M35i in Frozen Grey. Love the color - I get lots of comments on it. Ultimately, I opted for the black alcantara seats over the red/black because they were a little loud for my tastes. From a practical perspective, don’t love the alcantara as it is a magnet for dirt and always looks messy.

Let me know if you have any questions about the color or want any pictures.

I have the alcantara seats and they look as good as new! I find them incredibly easy to maintain with very little effort. One big benefit of alcantara over veganza is that any scratches can be brushed out. If you get a scratch on veganza, that it. No getting rid of it

We’ve got the massage option on the regular seats (wasn’t available on sport seats) and I use it every single day.

I LOVE the red interior. But like you said it’s a personal choice.

These are mostly not in direct light so they look a bit more muted. In better light they are brighter.
