Med Bllue and Cognac

Chuckyarla · 02-25-2017, 04:01 AM

Who reckons Med Blue looks good with Cognac interior?

hinckley · 02-25-2017, 04:06 AM

I think it's the best color combo available, but it's a non-starter for me because cognac is available only in Dakota leather.

Same here - mid March. It's been a long wait! Saw and drove an M-Sport in Med Blue with Ivory. It was very nice. Bluestone was also very nice. I definitely want the Cognac and I don't reckon it would go with Bluestone so I'm happy (enough) that I made the right choice. However the Bluestone was nice.

What spec are you going for?

They really need to add Merino to the G30 offering in addition to more Nappa color choices...

I chose the matte finish Fineline Cove. It looked nice on samples

The Sunday Times (Irish edition) had a review of the G 30 today...which focus send entirely on the technology available in it. But pleased to see that the picture of the reviewer stretched across the front seat seemed to be cognac with aluminium!!!

I ordered mine with Med Blue and Cognac with Fineline Ridge. Going from Merino Leather to Dakota seems like a bit step down but I didn't like the quilted pattern nor colors of the Nappa so they were a non-starter.

I debated on the Fineline Cove wood but settled on the Fineline Ridge when the car entered production before the change could be made.

Med Blue/Cognac is my favorite combo too, but I want the luxury seat package, so I may have to go with mocha. I haven't seen much discussion on the luxury seat package, does everyone think its not worth it? I am only considering it as a treat for my wife, to have the massaging seats. I saw them at the dealer over the weekend, and they look kinda beat up with the perforations. Might have to rethink this and just go with cognac, save some cash as well.

You mean comfort seats? I got them (had the standard seats in my f10) and they are great, though after two weeks I'm still playing with the settings to get them even better

I guess, not sure; I have only been researching the the G30 for the past few days. I have a 4 series, and long story story short, I received the $2500 loyalty credit, so i went to the dealer to look at X5's (baby on the way), but the G30 caught my eye. On the configurator, there is a luxury seating package option, which features vented/massaging seats.
