Interior for Black Sapphire Metallic—Fiona Red vs. Tartufo

Oeon · 06-16-2021, 02:45 PM

What do you guys think? I have a current order on a 22 M3C in BSM with 826M bicolor wheel and red calipers currently it's speced with the extended Tartufo interior. Should I change it to Fiona red, regular seats I do not find the carbon buckets comfortable sadly.

CanuckM · 06-16-2021, 03:09 PM

It's a matter of personal taste. I absolitely love Tartufo. But aesthethically? I think Fiona Red works best with a BSM car.

m4lex · 06-16-2021, 04:57 PM

I have my BSM 22 M4C on order with Fiona and I have seen one in person that is actually stunning! Go for the Fiona!

barryc365 · 06-16-2021, 05:21 PM

I prefer the Fiona personally but both very nice

chicagofan00 · 06-16-2021, 05:23 PM

BSM & Fiona is an amazing combo.

BSM & Tartufo will be ok but kind of ho hum compared to BSM & Fiona.

evilalien · 06-16-2021, 05:55 PM

Black exterior, red interior... hands-down. I'd have asked for a poll for the fun of it, but just go red (or silverstone, for an inverted stormtrooper look).

jpsimon · 06-16-2021, 06:22 PM

Definitely Fiona

rideontwo · 06-16-2021, 08:54 PM

Another vote for Fiona red.

ando · 06-16-2021, 09:36 PM

Fiona for sure.

rak299 · 06-16-2021, 10:38 PM

red

Oeon · 06-16-2021, 10:39 PM

Well boys I think I need to call my SA and swap my color out to Fiona red.

Telly9987 · 06-16-2021, 10:52 PM

I have the Fiona red.

Search Telly9987's Build and there are pics etc.

OF Hero · 06-19-2021, 10:14 AM

BSM over Fiona Red will look outstanding and I've actually narrowed my own build to this as a possible finalist.

It is not as bright as it appears in some pics...in fact it has a darker, almost clay tone to it which I think is perfect (at least based on dealer color palettes).

Oeon · 06-19-2021, 11:31 AM

Got it changed and swapped the interior trim to carbon fiber. Planning on getting the IND carbon fiber trim for seat backs. So excited

thehaloboy · 06-19-2021, 09:08 PM

I should get my BSM with Tartufo this week and will post some pics.

Oeon · 06-19-2021, 09:42 PM

Awesome. Looking forward to seeing the pics!

Do they have Fiona red carbon buckets available? Haven't seen anyone with it

Only became an option starting with the 2022 models and those are only just now starting to begin production. Likely won't see anyone take delivery of a car with them for several more weeks.

Fiona Red interior is striking; gets my unconditional vote.

Seedster2 · 06-25-2021, 09:26 PM

Fiona us going to look fantastic.

Went with this combo too; very excited. I've always had black on black for my bimmers, so this will be way sportier than I've had before.
