Does anyone has any idea what colour this is? Is it available currently on the other BMW models?
To me the colour on the BMW website ghraphics does not look the same as the one in the high resolution still pictures available to download. The download pictures are Monaco Blue, so is the graphics in Deep Sea Blue? I know it says Monaco Blue in the Visualizer.

There are pics of the car with what looks like 'space grey' from the 3 series (replaces silver grey).

Some people seem to think that the blue touring on that same thread could be 'deep sea blue' but it's very hard to tell as the image is photoshopped so much. To me it looks like another bad rendition of monaco blue which is quite dark.
I think you'll have to wait and even then when you get a picture you may not be able to judge the colour well at all as so many of the BMW colours don't photograph well as they are dark and have complex shades and metallic accents.

Judging by the name "Deep Sea Blue", I would guess this is a very dark blue color. Kinda like the deep sea....

BMW info says that Deep Sea Blue replaces Mystic Blue ... which is not as dark as Monaco Blue or Orient Blue, for example. So who knows what this will look like?

Thanks for your feedback. But don't any of you think that the color on the bmw.com site (http://www.bmw.com/com/en/index_highend.html) is NOT Monaco blue as stated. To me it looks Blue Green and so maybe Deep Sea Blue.
