Ash Grain Fine Wood Trim with Metal Inlay

I really like this new interior trim option. Looks really upscale.

However, I think I'm going with the Coral Red interior (black dash) and I think the walnut goes with the CR and the Ash Grain goes with Oyster (and black, but not as good as Oyster)

The AG just doesn't look right with the CR interior....agree?

Anyone have some real world pics of the AG?

I think the Ash looks just fine with Coral Red.

I actually think the ash grain compliments the coral red much better than the walnut. The dark tone blends well with the dash/black leather. The AG looks exactly like the grey poplar that I have on my 6 series.... very nice looking.

I ordered the AG with Black Dakota. I have seen it in a 6 series and it looked great

Thanks for the inputs. The configurator makes the walnut look black with red highlights. The ash looks grey. I'll see if I can find some examples when I hit the showroom soon.

FWIW I'm getting CR w/ AG. Sort of unique IMHO b/c these are the two least common trims together. I've seen both though, although not together. I'd never be so bold (any more) to order blind -- once ordered a "red" car sight unseen based on pictures. In real life at night it looked purplish. Bleech.

AG is hard color to pin down but I'd say blackish-gray. It really depends on how the light hits it.

The Anthracite trim is gray. The Ash Grain is is more "black" with a golden grain to it. Looks awesome with my Saddle Brown interior. I ordered it sight unseen, and I'm glad I did.
