Since I screwed up the first poll, I'm creating this 2nd poll for interior color.

The most important variable here is what color the paint is and how well it goes with the interior.

I picked black with contrast stitching, but what I REALLY wanted was Cognac leather. Gotta have leather.

BMW made a big mistake by making the Thundernight Metallic color scheme the G42's signature color and not offering a leather interior that compliments it. Cognac leather would have been perfect. Oyster isn't too bad, but a lot of people aren't going to go for something as light as that.

After being in 2 new BMW's with leather, a 2022 X3 with oyster vernasca and a 2022 m240 with black vernasca, both seemed to have weird puckers in the leather on the curving seams. Maybe these ripples are something you should come to expect since it's a "natural" product, but for the cost of the option I was hoping for better craftsmanship.

Black with contrast stitching. Real leather holds up well if taken care of. There really isn't another colour that goes with the purple besides oyster and I have a black dog. Lol

To add to what I've said previously in this thread:
Even though I'd prefer leather, I'd seriously consider cognac because I think it best compliments Thundernight Metallic. But adding lumbar deletes sensetec with the online configurator. That really sucks.

I agree with u, that is the best colour combo.

In Spain the M sport Seats are available in Cognac leather ....

This is my configuration

Beautiful spec. I like the digital rendering and the video on the BMW website which we dont get in the US.

It also sucks that we dont get the M sport seats in the US like the euro spec.

I also went Thundernight Metallic with Cognac interior but with the 792 wheels.
