We were debating the exact same, except Terra interior. Can you get Mocha with M Sport in Canada? Here I don't think you can, at least not according to the bmwusa.com build your own..
We decided on the Mineral White, mainly because we had an E70 that was BSM/Black and because my F30 is BSM. As far as pros and cons.. I like how the white shows the lines of the car better. The black hides them a bit, makes the F15 look more like the E70, a little less distinguishable, I think. Now that could be a good thing or bad.. but I like how the white shows some of the new character better than black does. That and I like the white/black contrast between the paint and the grills, roof rails, etc that obviously black doesn't offer, just a different look. I also like the metallic in the white, don't think we would have done Alpine White if mineral wasn't available. That said, I would say if we hadn't already had a black one before, we probably would have gone black. Of course, we've changed our minds several times since we "decided," so technically our decision isn't final until it's too late to change the order Last edited by chrisny; 10-24-2013 at 08:33 PM.. |

My wife had a Ivory/Black Dakota combo and it looked classy. She had a 3 Series Coupe with the Deep Sea Blue paint. Nice! I'm ordering Black Sapphire with Ivory/Black Dakota and the black 20"wheels. |

Have the same on my f11 and will be ordering the same on the x5. Did consider mineral white, on ivory/black, but a few pics have put me off. Doesn't look good with sun protection glass, side on. |

Ivory/Black is better than Beige considering two young kids? I have two and very concerned. I have opted Beige hoping a better alternative to Ivory. But the advantage of Ivory is black carpet.
