100% not yuk why did they bring out this colour. 
Sorry not my colour
If you do get it I think it will be hard to sell, unless sell to a dealer.
I wish they made the oxford green that they use to have

My Ride: 2006 525i Silver Gray/Gray Dakota Leather | Steptronic | Cold Weather | Xenon | Premium Package
Modifications:
M Aero Kit | Carbon Fiber Kidney Grill | K&N Air Filter | Charcoal Filter Removed | Radenergie R10 Silver 20" soon | kW coilover V3 | SprintBooster soon | M5 trunk finisher
Next planned mods:
?Hamann quad exhaust + Hamann quad rear diffuser + Hamann Front Lip?
Given the scarcity of that colored e60s on the road, I'd recommend to get one just to be different 
, but I'm not a fan of beige interior.

Red, Green, Brown and worst of all white are colours not to choose in UK if future re-sale is important. Even the police are starting to use silver cars for this very reason! 
Ain't that the truth! although I fell in love with Oxford Green II and had to have it; what's ?500 resale difference on a ?45k car
I'd really like a "middle-east" spec white e60 with beige interior

Have you thought that there may be a reason why they don't?

If you're thinking about resale in two years I'd recommend standing on any street corner and do a 5-minute survey of how many green cars you see. That percentage is your future buyer base unless there's a new wave in car fashion. The rule of thumb in the car business is offer what sells the most. That's why the silvers and blacks are so common - they universally look good and a lot of people like them. My friend, a retired Cadillac dealer, told me once that white cars resell the fastest and easiest. I can't figure out why but he made a lot of bucks doing just that.
Resale is about supply and demand, not only demand.
Yes, the buyer base in case of popular colour car is bigger, but at the same time the supply of these cars is also much bigger.

In general, I cannot agree with this.

But if there is no demand it doesn't matter about the supply - the price will tend to zero.
