For those who have FULL LEATHER... Question...
Hi guys...
I'm def going with the Sahkir Orange interior. And I thought I was going with Full leather because I wanted the leather dash, etc... To make it feel more special over the std 5-series. But now that I think about it... Is it really worth another $3500...? So for those that have (or had) FULL Leather.... Is it worth it in your opinion?

It's a matter of opinion, but I think so... Didn't have it in my E39, but was happy I opted for it in my E60, and of course my F10. It really makes the car feel more luxurious. Just do it...

The F10 needs full leather.
The car I borrowed didn't have full leather and almost everyone who saw it commented on how the interior did not look like it belonged in a $100k car. |

If you are going to purchase an M5, then full leather is a must.
You look at the dash every second of every day you drive the car. The M5 looks.. hate to say cheap.. but not luxurious at all without the full leather option. The bottom of the doors looks nice with full leather (bottom has contrast versus being all black). The full leather option is an absolute must. It's a shame BMW didn't make the center of the steering wheel in leather.. would of made a huge different in quality appearance.

Gone for the same interior, BUT full leather in this colour over the top, to much RED.

I would say yes, but I do not have the SO and can't add value on that end of it.

Agree.
The full leather is a must IMO. The plastic dash and lower doors looks like shit. If I was buying a chevy I wouldn't care, but in a 110K car it should be standard. Then there is the bigger blunder of having to order full leather on top of individual. If I was to order full SO, I'd do the lower doors and console in black. Full is too much IMO.

I wish they had stand alone leather dash as an option - supposedly they did, but my guy couldnt figure it out. I didnt want seat backs and dash in SO, but i really wanted the black dash in leather.

I didn't think it looked all that impressive in the 'build your own' photos. I regret not ordering it.

Not sure about SO that's a lot of orange. My dealer found my car just getting into port and exactly like I wanted but without full leather. All others found in my spec with full leather also had B&O and 343's I didn't care about B&O and wanted 601's. I am too impatient to order but I still regret not waiting longer to find full leather however.
