Just curious, what's the most/least popular exterior and interior color?

As the title says. I'm assuming my car (Sunset Orange) is probably one the least popular exterior colors (with the exception of some of the colors that had a short run, like Vermont Bronze), but I have the most popular interior (Black w/Blue stitching).

I couldn't figure out how to split the poll in two, so the interior color choices are at the bottom. You can vote for an interior and exterior color.

It wasn’t my first choice, but because I got my car off the lot and wanted Orange I didn’t have a lot of options. I’ve grown to really like it though and have gotten a lot of compliments on it!

My recently purchased M340i is sapphire black with the cognac interior. That is the best interior color, and black exterior is OK, I prefer white or gray, but this one has the shadow line package and I think it looks awesome!

I love the cognac and the red interiors. Unfortunately mine is a 2021 and red wasn’t available!

I’m surprised that Cognac is more popular than Black.

Mine is Sapphire Black which looks amazing when clean, but a pig to keep looking that way. Never again.

Black with blue stitching, nice enough but I much preferred the Oyster in my F34.

As you can probably tell I bought mine ‘almost new’ and was more interested in the high specification than colour combo.

If I were ordering new today I would be Dravit with Oyster or a very pale creamy interior.

This combo is killer. The Touring makes it even more so.

This is all really interesting to see. I'm really surprised on the interior colors. I'd say the bulk of the ones I saw when looking had black interiors. I remember one on the dealer lot with cognac, but it appears here that in a larger sample it's much more popular.

I went with the San Remo Green for my 2022 M440i Cab with Tartufo Merino Leather interior. The Cognac was not available on the 2022 cab (at least not in Canada), I thought the mocha was a bit too dark and the oyster a bit too light. I really liked the Cognac and the Tartufo was the closest match so went with the pricier "Individual" colour. Still waiting for the car to arrive however!

Ahh, my fault. I forgot to add the few different colors for the 4 series in the poll. I like that green. It's really unique and stands out. Congrats on the purchase!

I think this poll certainly reflects the enthusiast color choices more than the reality of G2x models I see in the wild. Mostly I have seen the white, black, and grey colors more than anything else. I see very few Portimao Blue and Melbourne Red cars for example. (I'm just glad ours is Portimao Blue )

Yeah, makes sense. I'm in the same boat as you. The ones I do see are the three colors you mention above (and local dealer lots reflect this as well).

Ok, I'm throwing a flag on this thread. I don't see the best color of all in the list - Arctic Race Blue.

C'mon man....that's a 15 yard penalty!

Yeah, I messed up and forgot the 4 series had a few unique colors. Let me see if I can edit the poll

I really like the look of Mocha. Very classy. I've yet to see it in person.
