Palladium Silver photos?

[OzStriker]

Just a quick request if anyone has any new photos of the Palladium Silver interior, there are not that many out there and I am trying to decide between that and black, with AW outside.

The Frankfurt Motor Show M3 appears to be in Palladium, does anyone have a link to some interior shots from the Show perhaps?

Only the second one (see that seating and that tone of gray) is "close" to the true final colour. To take pics is not easy...If you would have the original printed BMW M3 catalogue in your hands, sure would like this colour since it is well represented...But probably you have it:-)

i did not like it so much ,beige is better....

[OzStriker]

Thanks for the photos, I think I will stick with black inside, white outside.

[OzStriker]

Found these, Im thinking black still:

I can see the blue hue in the door panels, but can you see it in the seats IRL?

[Dieselino]

It would be sweet if the center of the seats are black. Nice two-tone look.

I second Epacy's question. Need to answer what interior I'd get to go with IB, if I choose IB.

IB is #1 here.

I'm stuck between four combos, each with a problems in my mind:

#1: Space Gray/FR : Not an "M" color on the outside, every car in the universe is some form of silver nowadays
#2: Melbourne/Beige: How does the red really look? Do I want the Gap interior?
#3: IB/PS or black: Is IB too purple for me? Does PS look like "grey" or something unique? Do I want to fry in the New Orleans humidity with black leather?
#4: Jerez/FR: I have CB/Cinn now, do I want what is basically the same color combo? I park outside, do I really want to wash black all that much again?

Decisions...

[Epacy]

IB def.
Although, Space Gray with some tinted windows would look close to the concept, which was spectacular. Just gotta find those CSL rims in that finish.

Either PS or BB.

Also, need some pics of the plantane wood. Either going with that or the only one that isn't completely plain-jane, CF leather. The standard black and aluminum trim is played out and dull.

Here's a quick one (though not showing too much detail)

[Epacy]

Yeah, seen it. Like the blue hue, but need to see it in the seats.

guys! is this Interlagos blue??? If so, I've fallen for blue again since I've had Avus from my previous E46. When I saw it from the truck delivery pics posted, it was kinda dark blue color.... but this pic really shows the color in day shot.

thanks!

Yes, that's interlagos blue. You can find photo threads for all the various M3 colors here -- http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56911

Hi, if this helps my honest opinion is that the black leather with brushed alumiun trim 4MX is best with Alpine White.

I find the palladium to soft a contrast against the white car, better with a black car. The black leather is hot and very sporty. Brushed Aluminum trim gives nice life to interior.

Hope this helps, sorry that I have no pics for you.

IMO, IRL, I did see the blue hue in the leather throughout the car. I refer to the one at the Canary Wharf Motor Expo a few months back in the UK. It did look good to be fair and also fairly unique. The only concern was that it may need more regular cleaning.

[Keto]

Mmm, if it really does have a touch of blue to it, that may make my decision for me -- would prefer PS to be unique rather than just a fancy name for grey.

[OzStriker]

I was leaning towards the CF trim with black inside but appreciate the thoughts on silver for a bit of contrast.

I will search for some photos with silver trim now!

[OzStriker]

Here are some good trim photos, I think aluminium trim looks too strong with black leather.

Black with CF trim is conservative but I think it looks great.

[eddiekayak335]

I like it but the dashboard I want to be black. Only the seats and the doors grey!!

[OzStriker]

Without the extended leather option I think the dash will be black eddie.
