What do you think of those bi-color seats in the 2015 X6?

Thumbs up or down on those bi-color nappa seats in the 2015 X6?

I just got my 2015 F16 pricing guide today and unfortunately the only way to get multi-contour seats with ivory leather is to go with the Ivory/Black Bi-Color interior design package. You want plain ivory, no cushy seat for you! That's narrow.

The first photo is a real one from the launch photo set. The second one is a rendering from the UK configurator. I'm not sure if it would grow on me or make my brain explode.

We own (2) X6's... Maybe the color on the new will grow on me - but thumbs down at the moment.

I love it with the caramel color - whatever it's called. I hope that color or something similar is available on the X5 M when I place my order.

Ya, comfort seats are definitely a priority. My issue is that I don't like dark interior or light carpets (goodbye black and canberra). Red? No! Terra? Way too orangey. That leaves cognac and ivory, neither of which they provide comfort seats in anything but bi-color. Ok, perhaps it would grow on me, but it irks me to be 'forced' to pay $1900 for something I think is mega goofy.

On a positive note, I really like what they did to the front end of the X6 MSport over the X5. In my opinion, just that little change around the breathers makes it look so much better with white. I won't feel the need to put in that Euro trim.

I think one big thing the X5 is missing out on is more "elegant" interiors. I know this is subjective but different color piping, etc. would add to the luxuriousness. BMWs may be the ultimate driving experience, but IMHO the seat appearance in the competition is better.
