Just wondering what everyone feels about the trim.

Titanium or the Brushed Aluminum. I am not a scientist but is there a big difference here?
Big difference. Titanium to me looks and feels very cheap. The brushed aluminum on the other had has texture. I have it and everyone that has seen it loves it. It's cool how the texture casts shadows, it almost looks like waves. Pretty cool. I'll posts pic later.

Not sure what I will have

I have on order a 325I, prem/sport package, xenon, hk, heated seats, natural leather.

I have no idea now what I will have. I was never asked the question when I ordered. Will I have: Titanium, brushed alum, or the brown myrtle trim................I wonder what looks the best?

I have titanium in my car. I love it. I wasn't too sure at first because the alluminum really looks sharp in my oppinion. But the titanium has def grown on me and it's been commented on several times about how good it looks against the black interior of my car.

any pics of the Ti? As far as the metal goes, Ti is king. Lightweight, strong, durable, non-reactive, etc. Of course, it's only trim so it just has to look nice..... I had my wedding band made out of Ti.

I have black leather/black exterior and the reddish burl wood just doesn't look right - I'm looking for a simple dark black wood or non-flashy black carbon fiber, but Ti sounds interesting....

If you visit www.m3supercar.com - go to the buyers guide. They have some interior pics there. A "couple" have a decent view of the Ti interior with different leather interiors.

I don't have any of my car, even though I probably should take some. Maybe once it warms up around here..

titanium is what i will have in my car as soon as i pick it up...i think it looks pretty cool with the rest of the car (ext. silver grey int. grey)...but its up to you how it looks...and the guy who ordered the car im pretty sure it will be a wood trip since premium package that is one of the included items.

you should get wood trim since you have premium. My friend has natural leather and wood and it looks awesome. I have a black interior so I think the plain titanium looks better than the wood (too dark w/ the black). Oh and the titanium is just plastic. It's not actually the metal. Still, it is light cuz it's just plastic (not like it makes that much difference since all the trims don't weigh that much).

Thanks for the info

Thank You for the info. Felt a little foolish ordering a 38, 000 car and not even know what the interior would be like.

Very glad the combination of natural leather and wood trim lokks great!
