If its going to Hawaii, why is there snow on it?
I'd be pissed if BMW were keeping my new car outside.

Thumbs up

Hat's off to Mark for ordering this. It's certainly a bold and "bi-curious" interior!

I love the use of Koa wood. I'm not sure the pics can do it justice as the grain can be very 3D. It's also a flat finish rather than gloss.

As an example of some really corking Koa, here's a Martin D42K2. Sounds great too.

Oh, man! If I see another Ontario Gold metallic M6 with individual leather Merino bicolor in Gold Brown / Champagne with full contrast stitching and Interior trim in Hawaiian koa wood on the road...

Jeez, everybody seems to have that combo!!

Lovily looking car now, both interior and exterior combination suits well. Though the expense paid will never be seen on resale.

The exterior color is nice and very unique. The interior is just HORRIBLE

My dad's assistant had the same interior on his Benz SL so I now fist hand how ugly it looks

I think it looks great. A very bold design.

Definately unique and really stands out. I wouldn't do it with my car but to each his or her own right?

Oddly enough, I don't mind the exterior. Looks good on the M6 for some reason. The Koa wood looks awesome, there's just way too much of it (on the center stack). Kudos for being different.

Is that snow?!
