Not sure of anyone saw a Jerez and SSii sedan Side by Side

Not sure of anyone saw a Jerez and SSii sedan Side by Side with a black interior ?

Decided to get black leather with Brushed trim and 18" Wheels

Thinking of SSii sedan since it seems to show the lines of the m3 better and still look agressive and sporty ( the added bonus being it is going to be ez to maintain ) The SS in brochure looks pretty good though

Any thoughts ?

I think if you're getting the black interior that the aluminum is the best looking trim. And both would compliment SSII nicely. Just IMHO, so go for it.

Have you seen the leather/CF trim? I assume not since I am pretty certain you would change your mind!

Yes I've seen it. IMHO, the CF leather looks better with the lighter interior colors. Not that it looks bad with black. But, I'd prefer the aluminum trim with black since it just looks too dark that way.

Cool! Aluminum looks good as well. If you like it, stay with it.

my ssii 18 wheels with black interior and alum trim is at the dealer waiting for me to pick tomorrow. i think this is a great color combo, a little biased. i think the lighter colors complements the muscular lines well. jerez is awesome when clean.

Thanks guys for your replies. I was able to finally see SSii in person and it really suits the M body work. All the M details and Curves of the car are really apparent. I placed an order for SSii sedan DCT with black leather, 18" wheels, alum trim , enhanced audio , tech package etc

When I first saw the CF trim in pics I thought it was an 8/10 at the most but its a lot more classy in real life. I would give it a 9.5/10 now
