Go to CARS.COM and search for 2014 BMW X5 New Cars.
Sort the results by Pictures. Go to Filter area and put Beige in keywords and refine search. You will find several cars with C Beige and matter of fact any color.

Beige is still king of lighter interior colors. So, you are not alone.

Just saw an alpine white x-line with ivory/black interior . My fiancé and I both agreed it looked phenomenal, esp with the stitching in the ivory to tie in the black. I have BSM 335is w/ oyster and hex alum so we wanted to go with a darker interior and wood for the x5. Opted for mocha nappa and pure wood with carbon black. But, we were both very impressed with the alpine white/ivory & black color combo.

Over the years have had many cars with white leather interior. Still like the combination
but as said, it a cleaning chore. Make sure no blue jeans get in (that does not wipe off),
don't lay newspapers on the seats or your briefcase with metal hinges. I think
mineral white with white full leather would be cool, just the maintenance.

Came close to getting a Range Rover Sport with white leather and Chili exterior

Looked at some of the whites with biege, don't like it. Sorta has dirty look next to
the bright white exterior. Bright white with bright white leather would look better.
Have that light beige in another car with red, might as well have white, its just as
hard to keep clean

The reason I'm going with Mocha Nappa instead of Ivory Nappa is not so much the seating color but the carpets and footwells.

That is really going to be hard to keep clean. And the cargo hold in Ivory is not the best choice even if you put a liner back there.

It does look great though.

Exactly! That interior is beautiful, but very difficult to maintain.

So I finally got a chance to see the Canberra Beige with a white exterior. Looks really nice and I think it will go great with space gray as I ordered it originally.

One question...I do see that jeans will run a little on the seats and what quick cleaner RFP you guys recommend? I think BMW sell a leather cleaner...not sure how well that works.

In addition, I do want to get black all weather mats from weathertech to contrast the floor a little and help keep it clean. The difference between the bmw mats and weather tech is that the 2nd row fills the whole back floor including hump. Does this make sense?

I really like the new floor mats recently released for F15 and each set is about $85. They also have a trunk mat but not sure how it works with third row seat.

Check BMW accessories section.

Also, can you tell me why did you chose Beige over Ivory/Black?
I have ordered Brown with Beige but still thinking of Ivory/Black.

I considered the ventilation again. I have it in the MB S550. Great but not very powerful. I hated cleaning it. So much stuff get stuck in those lil holes. I can't even vacuum it out. I have to poke it thru with a needle so all it does is fall into the seats lol.
