looking to order M4 Coupe DCT in mineral white metallic. cant decide on interior.

I have had the shakir orange before on another car and it feels wrong to get the same again.
Black seems a tad boring so was thinking of silverstone grey leather.

However the dealer has put me off by saying if i wear jeans a lot then they can have a colour transfer issue and i could end up with blue/grey seats.

I wear jeans every day apart from the 3 days a year when its sunny and im in my speedo's.

Do any of you have silverstone leather and have any comments on the above. i really want light leather but as it will be a lease car need to be mindful of its condition at the end of a 4 year lease..

thanks for any comments.

I had Silverstone in my 1st F10 M5 & in my 2nd i opted for Sakhir. Silverstone does suffer with dye transfer pretty quickly so if i were buying a White car i'd either go Black or Sakhir inside.

You get transfer but it's easy to clean off, but I agree a white car needs a contrasting leather like black or sakhir.
