330ci convert. Did they make tan roofs?

[trisaab]

I'm looking for a 2003, or 2004 330ci convertible. Black ext., tan int., with a tan convertible top. I *think* I've seen a tan top on a black or blue convertible. Am I dreaming? I can't find anything on AutoTrader, Cars.com, E-bay...nowhere. Dang. I love the look of a tan convert. top.

I've found that asking sales folks at dealers gets you nowhere, because they either don't know...or they simply want to get you into something on their lot.

Advice?

Check with an auto upholstery shop ... they will tell you what colour replacement top kits they can order. If you can't get a replacement tan top then you don't want to buy a car with one installed. I guess BMW parts desk should know too.
I wanted a green one with a green top, but wound up with all-black soft top, hard top, and interior and have come to love it anyway

For MY 2003 and 2004, I have never seen a tan top. Actually, I have never seen a tan top on a US spec E46. I am pretty sure tan tops stopped with the E36. The E46 was available with black or dark blue.

Just what I've seen.

I don't remember a tan option when I got mine. I checked the BMW replacement parts list and found:

03 COVER, FOLDING TOP ANTHRAZIT 1 54318229839 $2,282.22
03 COVER, FOLDING TOP DUNKELBLAU 1 54318243262 $2,282.22

Anthrazit = Black; Dunkelblau=Dark Blue

So I think no tan was offered.

Kirby, you and I are so smart, and informed. Schwarz und Dunkelblau. Genau mein Herr!
