I have just order a 530i in Barbera Red from the Brochure! NoOne has this new colour yet and I'm not sure if it's the best choice. The car is going to build 1st week in 2006 so I have a couple of days to change the colour. I already have a 525i in Black (which my wife is keeping) and we have had an Orient Blue 3 series in the past. So can't really have the black again and my other choice would be Mystic Blue. But since seeing one (3 series) this afternoon, I'm not sure it's my colour. Too many Silver and Greys so think I'll stick with the Barbera Red.

Does anyone know how I can get some pictures of it?? or which colour would be closest.

My Spec:
530 SE
Navigation System Professional
Bluetooth Telematics
Head Up Display
Through Load system
Dakota Black Leather
Anthercite Headlining
BiXenon Headlights
Adaptive Headlights
Automatic Air conditioning Advanced

I haven't seen a pic of one anywhere yet. It isn't even on bmwusa.com on the 5 series configurator.

If you look on bmwusa.com and go to the 7 series configurator, you can see barbera red on a 7 series. Of course the color on various monitors will differ, you can at least see it on a 7.

Hope this helps. :)

Your other choice was the Mystic blue :thumbsup: Sound like a much safer decision....I don't like the Mystic blue on the 3 series, but it looks totally different and much much better on the e60. I say change it :whistle:

I have a friend with a mystic blue 530i. It looks good. I think better than any red would look, then again I don't personally like red. Listen to Miss525i, she's wise!! :D

I like it! I would get it with a light interior, though.

Use the Search mode.

Not long ago I noticed some pics on this Forum of a red E60 with beige interior.
