Black looks great but a white E60 always standout. I would go with white. However, with these cars best to go with whichever is in better condition.

Black is nice. It gives you that "low profile" feeling. Comparing to white where you get noticed by the Po-Po everywhere you go. My fellow NewYorkers... any words on this?

I'd give white the edge
My E39 was Alpine White and my E60 is Black Metallic Sapphire. Of the two, the white was easier to keep clean and buff out scratches. The black only stays clean as long as it takes me to drive down the street, lol! Dark tinted windows on an Alpine White look awesome! If I had my choice, that's the way I'd go.

I have had an E60 for a couple of years now and it was in black. It looked fine and I had no issues with it. However the first time I saw a white E60 it looked so much better. I therefore had my black E60 painted in white. Perfect
