After several months of waiting, I finally collected my 2020 G20 M340i xDrive, replacing my 4 year old 340i. I hadn't seen Sunset Orange or Ivory Merino on any cars before so was a bit of a gamble, which paid off! Gotta love the colour combo (and that leather )

Photos (click on them to get larger full-resolution):










What do you think?

Also, some of the key features I got:
  • Full Ivory White Merino Leather interior
  • 19" 792 M Sport Wheels
  • Automatic Tailgate
  • M Technology Package
  • Oak Grain Open-Pored Wood Trim
  • Sunroof
  • Driving Assistant Professional
  • Bmw Gesture Control
  • Tyre Pressure Indicator
  • Adaptive M Suspension
  • Acoustic Comfort Glazing
  • Comfort Access System
  • M Seat Belts
  • BMW Individual Instrument Panel Finished In Leather
  • Galvanic Embellisher Controls
  • BMW Laser Light
  • Parking Assistant Plus
  • BMW Drive Recorder
  • BMW Live Cockpit Professional
  • Head Up Display
  • Harman/Kardon Surround Sound System


Full review coming soon, after getting PPF, ceramic coating and interior protection are applied

Awesome! This option still has a lot of black pieces to balance it and looks great. Walking up to open the door on this thing and your hit with that great contrasting interior, nice spec!

PBJ,
So glad you have your car now. The photos are excellent.
I wasn’t sure when you told me you were getting white ivory merino, but I have to say, it is a great colour combination. The cabin looks so light and airy and open. You are going to absolutely love living in a space like that.
But what about the rest of the car? The colour is amazing. I love the way it changes colour in different lights.
Our cars are almost identically optioned except for the colour of the merino and the aero bits on my car.
You are going to love the way it drives, even in very heavy rain.....
Enjoy, my friend.

Thanks all!

Had to give her up today for ceramic coating and interior protection.

Surprisingly (who would have thought) that it's only been 100km and the interior is already showing dirt :P

I love the interior so much though, it feels so light and airy as you'd imagine. But it goes one above, almost feeling like you're in a much more expensive car like a 7 series. There is leather everywhere, even areas you barely see or touch. And talk about touch, I have never felt softer leather in my life! Will be well worth the maintenance I think!

And if you don't feel like dealing with the white, go with what SteveAus did and get the Tartufo which looks equally as classy. Definitely recommend picking Merino if you can over Dakota, that's for sure!

Stunning!!

Maybe too early, but could I ask what you think of the Merino leather as I am thinking of updating my order to this leather rather than the standard.

Beautiful Hopefully you won't be getting rid of the Cerium Gray accents like so many others do, as these really do set this version apart from the more 'pedestrian' 3er's and do match the 792M rims to perfection
