The displayed magazine I do happen to have in my archive:

The 2nd page of that magazine does show however an interior of a different 400i since it's black and not tan.

And apparently there is an earlier edition of this magazine that published an article about the same car as well. Here you can see the pages and it's interior. You can see also the different pictures used, black and tan interior. Note the double ashtray in the midconsole.

Furthermore this car has this fancy Panasonic over head radio console. An item which I consider very cool. It has been nicely tailored in leather matching the rest of the interior. You can see too there is not the traditional stitched headligning in the ceiling. 

A pity that the pictures provided are a bit poor:
