I love my carbon black paint. Its a bugger to keep clean all the time and does tend to show the muck far more but when its clean its just beautiful as those pics you have taken show. I love the fact it can go from a really deep black colour at night into quite a nice dark blue in the day.

Hey, is the BMW Individual program available in Canada? If so, then it should be easy for US residents to order a car through a Canadian dealer, no?

Looks Good. I was a bit disappointed when I got mine as I was expecting a black car, not a navy blue, but now that I have got used to it I really like it. It looks black most of the time unless you park it next to another black and then it looks like a dark blue or navy.
But still a classy color and looks fantastic when clean.
