Moonlight Top versus Standard Black Top

The 235 xdrive convertible is scheduled to start production in July (BMW showed one at the recent Geneva Car Show) and when they are available for order here in the U.S. (assumedly soon) I'm going to be ordering one in Black Sapphire with black leather. What I'm undecided about is which black top to go with. I'm leaning toward the standard black under the assumption that the "triple black" color scheme will look rich, but the moonlight top sounds interesting. I saw one on a blue 235 at the dealer the other day, but the car was in the shade, not in the direct sun. I've been trying to envision what the moonlight top would look like against the black metallic body paint. I like the idea of the sparkle effect, but I'm concerned it's going to look too "silvery", and I'm thinking the standard black will look richer. Thoughts? Thanks in advance for your input.
