Cinnamon brown interior
Does anybody in here have the Cinnamon brown interior? I want to see it in real life but it’s a hard interior color to find on the dealer lots. Can someone please post a picture of the interior?

Here is a photo of mine, but this colour really does not photograph well. You have to see it in person, it is a really nice colour. Doesn't show dust and dirt as much as black and doesn't stain like oyster or tan. I had tan in my 335 and I had to clean the driver's seat often as it would turn blue from my jeans. Not a big deal, just more maintenance.

I sat in a car today with the Cinammon interior. I wish I had chosen it now rather than the Ventian Beige I have on order (too late to change now) but I couldn't find a car to actually see it before I ordered so I chose the safe option.
Good Luck. |

It's the photos. It really is less red/orange than the photos. I have yet to see a photo on-line that is a true representation of this colour. Best to see if you can find a car to see.

As far as I know, CB is a Priority 1 color in the U.S. which means the dealer won't order it unless a customer orders it specifically. I have CB and I love it. There is a little red to it, but not lots. Personally, I would prefer more 'red' in the color. Cohiba Brown is much more brown than Cinnamon brown, more muted. But that's not available on the 5.

the let down with the F10 compare to the F60 is the fact that the seat colour is applied for the lower side of the dashboard and surrounding, I opted for black because apart from Black beige, all others colours in my opinion made the plastic look cheap, with the e60 the dashboard colour was kept to black in most cases hence solid looking.

I have cinnamon brown in my car, and passengers ALWAYS compliment me on it. Even people who are decidedly non-enthusiasts comment on how unusual and how nice it is. It compliments dark colors extremely well, especially blue hues. (My car is Carbon Black.)
FWIW, I had a saddle interior on my 335i coupe with a Monaco Blue exterior. Saddle is very close to cinnamon, and that car won a People's Choice award at a concours for best interior. By the way, I do agree that some of the interior fittings -- notably, the hand grip on the driver's door -- look a little cheesy. I wish that the entire panel (grip and the panel surrounding the window and related controls) were black, but the whole rest of the interior is so distinctive and well-finished that I can easily overlook it.

I second the anthracite headliner, it keeps the interior 2-tone, brown and black rather than 3-tone, brown black and grey. To me, it feels a little more closed in a sporty with the anthracite headliner.

CB is a great color!! Would definitely order again. It's more of a brick reddish in person than brown. I received nothing but praise for it from all who rode with me.

I test drove a 5 Series today that just happened to have the Cinnamon Brown interior and actually liked it quite a bit. I've always had black interiors in my cars and just assumed that is what I would order on my 5 Series but the CB was attractive enough that I'm going to seriously consider it when it comes time to order.

I have cinnamon brown dakota leather in my AW 550...great color! you have to see it in person! I also recommend aluminum hexagon trim (if you like sportier interior look) and the ceramic controls! Love the combo!

I just saw the CB interior at the dealer yesterday, what a beautiful color. I wonder why it is not as popular as the other interior colors. Anybody think that the CB interior will affect the resale value of the car since it’s not a popular interior color.

Interesting how you have a leather boot with your gear shifter. How come?

The "leather" boot at the base of the shifter is what you get with the sport transmission. Even the shifter is a different shape and is shorter I think than what you get with the non-sport transmission.

Prior to ordering ours with the cinnamon brown, we had reservations as well. Photos do not do it justice. We went ahead with the cinnamon brown and we love it. Provides a nice contrast.
