Thanks for this info. I suspect that this is also an incomplete list (just like the HEA cars). For example, European markets do not get full leather as standard and have to settle for extended leather. Also, there are a number of other colours available including Alpine White III and Saphire Black.

Any idea what these colors look like? Other than Silverstone which we all know. I'd really like to see the Interlagos Blue.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is the difference normal, Full leather, and climatic leather.

Can someone please explain?

Thanks

I imagine these colors are the M5-specific colors, in addition to the normal E60 colors:
Ametystgrau Metallic
Mystic blue Metallic
Oliviengrün Metallic
Saphirschwarz Metallic
Silbergrau Metallic
Titansilber Metallic

normal leather: seats, steering whell, and some parts of the door are covered with leather

full leather: everything including dashboard ist covered with leather

climatic control: same like full leather but with small wholes for clima control, something like airconditioning for the seats

Oh I see, he thinks "normal" leather means Extended leather.
