In the early years of 8er production, there were a large variety of upholstery colors/fabrics to choose from BMW's official catalog. By the 1993-94 model years, BMW re-evaluated the upholstery catalog for the 8er and promptly removed underperforming colors.
This particular upholstery color was installed in 1.79% of worldwide 8 Series models. Over half the 8er's that came with this upholstery were combined with either ALPINWEISS 2 (code 218) or MAURITIUSBLAU METALLIC (code 287).
Color images were derived from multiple sources, including BMW AG, aftermarket upholstery color charts, and owner vehicles. Republishing content is expressly prohibited.
