Can't decide color for a 650i GC

I've currenty decided for alpine white with amaro brown individual interior with M sports package but I also like the moonstone metallic and the platinum interior or just moonstone with the amaro brown interior what do you bimmerfans suggest?

I like Opal White/Amaro Brown (the combination in the original release photos$ or Opal White/Black (see attached).

I also think Moonstone is nicer than Alpine.

I would do moonstone/Opal-Amaro
Or Alpine and Opal-Black given your tastes.

My personal choice would be Tanzanite Blue, OpalWhite-Black

I've just saw the pics and gone through BMW's configurator tool and thinking of the moonstone with opal black I really like light interior colors my CLS is the launch edition and is steel grey and porcelain black interior and looks pretty nice the one I love was the mineral white but it is not available with the M package wow it is hard to make a decision with so many good looking colors and obviously the car it is awesome!!

I am very very partial to the Canyon Brown. Platinum is probably my second fave, though it would really warrant a darker exterior color with that one.

We ordered Opal/Amaro and switched to Amaro/Black as we're afraid of the light color getting dirty really easily. Doesn't that bother anyone else?

I would go with Moonstone and champagne interior like this picture:

I forget, did you decide to stick with the Amaro/Black or Opal with the leather protection package? Can't go wrong with either one. Anything Individual is stunning.

Edit - Did you get the wood inlay steering wheel? I definitely would. You lose the heated function, if I remember correctly, but I think it is a nice complement to the rest of the Individual interior. The M Sport steering wheel would be my first choice, but that only comes with the M Sport Package. The reason I commented on this is because of the noticeable difference I felt when I went directly from driving my car to the non-M convertible at the PC. I thought the M Sport wheel was just aesthetic, but it felt a lot thicker and nicer. I would, however, be willing to give that up to have the Individual wheel that complements the rest of the interior. Not a big deal, but a minor thing that I think is more noticeable than you might think. I'm not sure why the wood inlay wheel isn't standard with the Individual interior - guess it is just BMW being cheap again...

Went to a dealer in South Florida who had an Alpine White 640GC in stock. In my opinion, it did not stand out at all. It just blended in. So I think your choice of Moonstone over Alpine White is a good one.

On our 640GC, we went with the Amaro/Black. Wife likes Amaro either way. Started with Opal/Amaro but didn't want the hassle of keeping the leather clean.

I saw Canyon Brown in person on a vert at the dealership and I like it the best. I wouldn't pick it from build your own or from pictures, but I would pick it based on seeing it in person. The vert had it's top down and the Canyon Brown was a really nice color. Wife thinks it's too dark and she's happy with Amaro.

We have the M package with the M heated steering wheel. Wife really likes the heated steering wheel over having the non heated wood steering wheel. M comes with the Carbon Black that we ordered. It's a spectacular color. I love the way it looks black, but then has a blue hue when in sunlight. The more light the more blue, the less light the more black.

The slightly inane worry of soiling light colored leather (partly caused by experience and partly by OCD) is the #1 reason why I go darker. Fortunately BMW has some awesome colors to choose from that aren't black so it's not a character flaw per se!

I think I am going Moonstone with the M package and opal/black interior and piano black and ceramic controls and the "20 wheels

About cleaning it I don't have trouble I own a car detailing so I believe I won't have trouble at all

Thanks for all the help and posting pics
I will postas soon as I got my car three months from now

Gratz on your car and I can't wait to see thoes pictures

No. I have a guy who does a great job cleaning my car.

Sometimes I clean the leather myself. It's not hard. Check out the leather masters website. The foaming cleaner is really easy to do once a month. Spray on wipe off.

My leather care regimen is detailed on my blog. It takes a little time, but it is very effective and only has to be done a couple of times a year.

Have you seem the metallic mineral white?

Very nice!!

Hell get the frozen!

The M Sport wheel is much nicer than normal/Individual wheel. It is much thicker and feels more substantial - definitely not a purely aesthetic option.
