: : : I was going to order my 330ci in Orient blue with a sand interior but I started worrying about the whole two tone dash thing. If you look at the top of the dash right below the windshield the sand and black looks really ugly. Granted this isn't an angle you're likely to see very much but...it made me cringe enough not to get that combo. I also found the contrast between the sand on the lower front of the dash and the black above it to be a bit severe.

: : : As much as I did like the sand interior I personally couldn't stomache the dash so I went with a black interior. A little bit dark and probably substatntially warmer but atleast everything matches. Besides I'm probably going to be reupholstering the seats anyways. Good luck on your decision.
