The problem with gray interior is from the factory it looks 20 years older than it is.

Not a fan personally. If it was grey leather only with black plastic everything else, that would be much better in my book, but BMW likes to make EVERYTHING grey/beige except the steering wheel and top of the dash on their grey/beige interiors.

In my opinion, black is the only way to go for interior.

Yuck. No, nyet, not a chance.
I wouldn't get a silver car, given a choice, with a single exception. A silver Cayman with navy blue interior would completely float my boat.

My first 335i was exactly that combo. TiAg with Grey interior; while it's not everyone's cup of tea, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Granted I enjoy my coral red interior far more, I'm personally of the mindset that just about anything is better than plain ol' black interior. I'm an extremely clean person and I love to have my things looking as clean as possible all the time. Now that I have a husky puppy however, doing so is nigh impossible on a daily basis since I take him with me almost every where, lmao. Point being, if it's your personal DD with no pets, transporting many people, etc., then go for it! If you're a little less OCD than me about 'mess', transport pet(s) frequently and or people, I'd probably recommend not going with such a color for interior. |

definitely, cousin has it, looks great.
I of course have the coral red, and for years thought that was "the" only color to get. Honestly, there are a lot of nice colors, I just think black is too common and would be "out" for me. Had a F30 loaner with what I think is saddle (light brown) and it looked nice too. |

I don't like silver outside or grey inside, so no.
The only time I like lighter colored interiors is when the dash top and carpets are still dark. My car has the oyster Dakota leather but it's still mostly a black/charcoal interior with the light colored leather only on the seats and door panel accents. |

Gray and black are boring. While black looks nice, gray kind of looks plain and old from the beginning. But colored leather like brown and red are my favorite.

Silver w/gray interior was what was on my last loaner, a 320i. The shoe fit.

For me, interiors only come in three colours. Black, black or black.

That looks nice with the black, there was a car that i was looking at and it was silver on grey and it just looked... awful for some reason, maybe it was just the pictures.
