Toronto Red with Tartufo?

Strongly looking at ordering an X3M...as I've become obsessed with them ever since driving one recently. I'm going back and forth with color choices and I really want Toronto Red, think it suits the car perfectly and definitely makes it a head turner.

I was originally thinking Toronto with Tartufo interior...but I'm unsure if the shade of tan/beige/brown that it is will go with the red exterior. Anyone here have Toronto on Tartufo? Any thoughts on the combo?

Kinda going for the classic red on tan look....ala Ferrari

Tartufo is sort of a milk chocolate poop brown. Haha looks good though. Certainly not a tan. I know what you mean by the Ferrari look and I don't think that's it. The black/beige would be my choice if you want that look but then you run the risk of ketchup and mustard or the McD's combo. lol Toronto Red is a tough one

Still undecided on Tartufo Brown... I like where your mind is at though, love the classic Italian recipe of bright red and brown interior; just wish it was more tan like Mercedes' saddle brown a la:

Is Tartufo like Cognac on the M40i, or is Cognac like the leather in the MB above? The colors on the "BMW configurator don't seem to be accurate!

Drove a Black X3M yesterday with Tartufo, and to me it looks identical to the MBZ saddle brown shade in this pic...photos tend to change the coloring though it seems

I have owned Ferrari's and the Red/Tan is actually non metallic Red and Beige, which is a light tan. Ferrari "Cuoio" leather is the natural leather color that comes from the tanning process, and is darker than the Beige...it is the color leather your Owner's Manual and docs comes wrapped in from the factory. Cuoio is a little more orange than the BMW Tartufo. I got the the Tartufo for my Dark Graphite and love it.

I saw the Toronto Red on the Adelaide Grey and the Comp only Midrand Black/Tan. Both looked great. But the Adelaide surprised me how good it was with the Red.

Interior color is such as a personal choice. It's your decision that counts the most. Just enjoy whatever color you select.

My local dealer (North Scottsdale) has this exact car on its floor - I saw it today but didn't take a photo. In my honest personal opinion, do not order this combo. Toronto is too orange and Tartufo is too brown. It's not a pleasing look.
