I personally prefer Quartz (I bought the AM/Quartz combo), but I think it really boils down to whether you prefer the wood or the carbon fiber look.

IMHO, Camel & Parchment go better with lighter exteriors like WDP, and Quartz goes better with darker exteriors, such as AM.

Camel, looks more sophisticated and not like a Honda's interior, which looks cheap with the Ebony and Quartz interior's. My opinion. In the end, your the one buying the car, so buy what YOU want.

I had a deposit for an 05 Anthracite/Quartz but ended up buying an 04 ABP/Camel (I also had an ABP/Quartz to pick from)

I'm very happy with my choice. It was a tough one, though. You won't go wrong with either. I was also getting out of an ebony interior so I too wanted a change.

As some have mentioned, the shade of grey that quartz has can appear cheap but it's easier to maintain. The carbon fiber appearance is more modern/youthful whereas the wood look seems more luxurious/mature to me.

If you like camel, ignore what others say about Anthracite clashing with Camel. When you're inside, you only see one color and BMW has the same color combo available.

Good luck.

As a lot of you know I have Anthracite/Quartz/Navi/5AT and I have the Wood rather than the Black Carbon Fiber in my car. For $800-1000 you can order the OEM pieces through your dealer parts dept. and then when it all comes in, have them install it for you. The result is subjective, but I love it and would not have it any other way. We pay a lot of money for our TL. You should get it outfitted the way you want it. The answers are out there, just research. If you want to see the pics, PM me or send me an e-mail.
