I personally love the dark colors. Jet black, black sapphire and the dark blue are the cars that make me all sweaty
But to each his own, if you like white then I bet it will look great.

Color is a personal preference. Having said that, I personally prefer silver gray!
I read somewhere that they developed silver gray specifically for the E60, since it works very well at complimenting its lines.

I love these "What is the best color?" posts. <_<
If you are asking the most popular: Tit. Silver gets my vote.
If you are asking for resale value, then see above.
Color choices are highly subjective...didn't someone say "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" ?
That said, I tend to like the blue colors best even though my 545i is Tit Grey (akin to Anthracite from the E39).
