Champaign quartz/tartufo m550i on order

My last two 550's have been jet black (e60) and carbon black (f10) with black interiors. So I decided to try something different. I added piano black trim, anthracite alcantara headliner, and 668m rims with non-run flats. All the packages and most of the options. Week 39 production, hopefully October delivery. Will post pics when here!

Thank you very much BMW_Sweden!!! I haven't seen champagne quartz on a G30 and I think it looks great.

My car is on the water, docked at Bristol now and soon on the way to port on Baltimore here in the States. I hope to have it later this month and will post pictures.

It arrived! Ship landed in Baltimore on Sunday and here in Illinois on Thursday. Almost exactly two months from order to delivery.

The sales manager knew I was excited so he called and stayed late and watched it come off the truck.

Here is a quick iPhone photo under the lights....more tomorrow when I hope to take delivery.

Tartufo brown interior is spectacular. Hope I can capture color with photos.

I'm waiting too....

We have one Touring model with this color at my gym, only saw it on rainy days but it sticks out anyways with it's gold/brown color

Here's a 4 series with this color at my local dealer, very sporty on this car.
If there's an interest, I can go and take more pictures
