I am just about to order a 525dT with Deep Ocean Blue metallic. Has anyone actually seen a real sample of that? My dealer has no samples.

When I look at the visualizer on the BMW web page, the color seems blue with some green tone in it. Looking at the desktop images that can be downloaded, it looks kind of light blue.

I have been looking in the german catalogue that I downloaded from this site. On one of my computers the Ocean Blue looks really good and kind of light blue. When I look at the same pictures on my other computer, the car looks purple and that is NOT what I want. And I am not 100% sure that the color of the car in the catalogue is Deep Ocean Blue.

I will probably go ahead and order the car anyway. I hope I'm not surprised in a negative way when I finally get the car.

It's shown on the BMW configurators (Build Your Own Car).

IMHO (and there are always difficulties in describing a colour) it's (only very slightly) lighter than Mystic Blue.

I know but in the configurator it doesn't look like the colour in the german catalogue. I will probably have to wait and see.
