Need to finalise my spec on M5 - what do you think goes better with Silverstone leather - Aluminium or Fineline Anthracite?

Aluminium gets my vote - IMO more in keeping with the style of the M5 than any of the wood trims (piano black aside).

I have aluminium in my 2012 and on my LCI due late Septmeber.

Anthracite if not.

Aluminium to me looks like every other 5 series.

Buy what you prefer though, your sitting in it.

I am sticking with the aluminium but go with what you feel is best
On another note do you know if you can spec the front kidney grill in matt black or is only in standard chrome.
I have seen photos with the black but they may have been aftermarket additions.
I have also changed the colour now going Singapore Grey with black wheels ..... This is a step into the unknown for me as I always go Black with the biggest standard silver/chrome alloys available.
Can't wait

Looks like Aluminium is the top choice.... Which I could see one with the Anthracite and Silverstone!

nono That is not an M6 interior

As for the colour, I personally think Silverstone needs a darker contrasting trim so Anthracite gets the vote from me thumbup

You're right, considering we have just got rid of a 530d GT after 2 years you would think I would recognise it!!
