Dravit Gray with Pearl interior?

Hi everyone,

I am on the verge of purchasing a Model 330E with an M package.
Currently I’m driving 2016 white color 3 Series.

Although white is a very popular color, but I’m getting a little already bored with it and for the next vehicle I want a more unique and special color.

I was thinking about the Dravit Gray that gets a lot of praise here and I saw it in the agency and it is indeed very special

I really like the pearl interior for the car and my question is about the combination between pearl and the Dravit gray?

I have never seen this combination in reality the tendency is to choose a mocha or cognac interior.

Will love to hear what your thoughts on the subject.

I think the reason mocha or cognac is chosen is because of the gold undertones in the dravit grey color which compliment a brown interior. At the same time, the browns offer a contrast to the actual grey.

That being said, I think the pearl still looks good with dravit. The nice thing about a neutral color such as pearl is that it goes well with practically any color.

Dravit on Pearl/Ivory works well.

A month ago I was struggling with the same decision, Trying to decide between Dravit and Tanzanite. It is a tough choice when there are not many cars for you to see in the flesh. Both these colors show differently in sun and shadow.

Yesterday, I drove by BMW Greenwich, CT and there were TWO M340's sitting clean, outside in the sun and waiting for delivery.

On the left, was Dravit over Cognac. Very nice. Not sure this particular gray (lots of fine gold metallic) does the M340 body lines justice. This car had upgraded aluminum wheels. It looked nice, clean, different.... very different than the run of the mill BMW grays. It does look similar to many of those similar types of grays you see coming and going on jeeps, Audis, and Mercedes.

ON the right was Tanzanite over Cognac. Tanzanite is a stunning, deep, dark, rich blue. It is BLUE, not black with blue metallic. But it is a very nice, very expensive looking blue. It looks great on the M340 body and beyond great when it is finished with the black wheels. Just one guys opinion, but if you want a really sharp looking car, the Tanzanite is beyond another run of the mill blue.
