Help with color

First, great forum with lots of useful information.
I just ordered a Alpine White X6, I have till Tuesday to pick the interior color. I am in between Saddle Brown and Oyster. Would appreciate any and all comments and pictures would be very helpful.
Thank You

Saddle by far! It really is an elegant color and will go beautifully with Alpine White.

Saddle Brown for me, looks really nice, there are plenty of pictures in this forum...
Oyster is beautiful but gets dirty really quick..
If you have kids, certainly a color to stay away from..

I would choose the brown.

Also, I bought my car off the lot. But if I were to custom order. I would consider silver with the burgundy leather.

But the brown is quite nice.

I would avoid any interior leather color that does not have black door trim and carpet. It is much easier to keep clean and will look nice much longer.

I would go with oyster white. The black against white interior looks so good - very sophisticated. Little concerned about wear but as long as its kept clean/proper maintenance that shouldn't be an issue.
