Looks stunning.

Exactly the same colour as the Loaner i had last week. I'm surprised just how blue the Carbon Black looks. Even in your photos (2nd & 4th) the car looks very blue.

AFAIC, the 172 style wheels are the best looking on the 535D. They just look lush & i'm so glad they were fitted to mine.

Does look good
Agree on the Carbon Black; I had a 525D Sport Touring last year in that colour and everyone, and I mean everyone, thought it was dark blue!. Love the colour, but a real pain to keep clean this time of year!

Just watch the detailing. Dark body colours & especially black are a real biatch to keep looking good. The darker the colour, the softer the paint. Even running your finger tips over black paintwork will cause swirl marks. High maintenance colour, but they look stunning when clean & shiny.
