Sometimes the darkest black can seem to be blue though.
Weird thing is that the Irish for a person who is black is "Fear Gorm" (far-gorom)
Anyway, that literally translates as "Blue Man".

I like it dont get me wrong, but at the back of my mind i wish i had got a jet black one! After all.. i was looking for an only black car and it turns out its not that black but kinda black depending on what time of day it is lol
Thats what makes it stand out, blue in the day & black at night.

No offense to anyone here but Im having a real hard time wrapping my head around how anyone can buy a car without knowing what color they're getting. And to take it a step further, if you were mislead by a dealer, what kind of a dealer has the ability to sell new BMW's without having knowledge of what they're selling. It's baffling to me. Is this really whats taking place?

In Russia they didnt tell me that the Russian authorities label the color as "Dark Blue" they just trashed me telling that mostly it looks black... Was a surprise to me that the car is really in fact dark blue I was mad for quite a while! Now Im starting to like the color
