I have a 2006 530i in Orient blue ... I noticed that the bmw website now does not listed it. Has the color been replaced with Monico Blue? I hope not... Orient Blue sweet.

Orient Blue was such a nice color too. I had it on my E46 and loved it! This time I went with Black, which is a little harder to keep clean but more elegant and stealthy!

Haven't seen any E60's or E90's in Monaco Blue in person yet, but from what I've seen in E90 pics, Monaco Blue looks just a bit "flatter" than Orient.
