First Choice - Space Gray with Coral interior. The darker gray shows off the lines well and contrasts with trim pieces without being as problematic as black in terms of swirl marks, spider webbing, and the other hassles associated with what is other wise the prettiest color. Space Gray is also dark enough for the metallic effect to show up nicely. The Coral interior contrasts nicely without being so light as to reveal all the dirt, and it ties the inside to the outside via the taillights. (It is noticeably lighter in person than in the BMW generated pics in my sig.]
Second Choice - Titanium Silver with black interior. Silver hides dirt and water spots really well, making it very low-maintenance. The black interior would contrast nicely and provide a simple two-colors inside and out design theme inside and out.

I find that it makes the interior feel much more luxurious and sophisticated in an understated way. So far, everyone who has seen it loves it. Definitely a personal choice thing, though - YMMV.

My previous BMW was a 2001 e46 M3 in Titanium with Imola Red interior. I bought it used and in a bit of a rush (long story), so once I found one configured close enough to the way I wanted it, I had to take what I could get from a color perspective. I was not thrilled about the red interior; it felt garish and over the top. But it really grew on me over time, and it got rave reviews from passengers. I ended up so happy with it that it was my first choice this time around. Now that I actually have the car, I have no regrets at all.
Space Grey with Black Kansas leather. It was Deep Sea Blue before the weekend, then changed to Black Sapphire at weekend, and then wasn't sure Titanium Silver or Space Grey. And finally I now choose Space Grey (bit darker than Titanium Silver but much brighter than Black Sapphire). Space Grey shows M aerodynamic bodystyling much better than Black Sapphire as well.
Alpine White is very nice at the moment, but is fashion colour. Also it is not easy to keep car spotless all the times.

The other reason is that Breaker's 35i is Black Sapphire, and Kryton's 35is is Deep Sea Blue. So I think my 23i M Sport has to be different from others.
What wheels are you going to spec ?

I phoned Chris Knott Insurance about the new car insurance, the current insurer wants £340 extra for 5 months cover (from June). I have just used confused.com, and the annual premium will only be £506 (£350 excess/protected NBC) with morethan. My E85 costs me £600 a year. More power, more expensive car, cheaper car insurance/excess.
