I am weighing getting either Titanium Grey (which seems to be pretty common around here) or Mystic Blue. I've never had a blue car before, so this would be something a little novel. (Orient Blue is too close to Black for upkeep reasons).

Anyone have Mystic Blue? Do you still like it? Is it better than black in terms of not looking crappy at times other than after its had a bath?

 

I got a 535i with mystic blue and the auburn interior. It looks assume. Yesterday i came out of Costco to find 5 people standing around my car. My first reaction was that someone had hit it. Fortunately thay were just admiring it. Go for it.

 

I've seen it in person and it is beautiful! As for the upkeep vs. the black, I can't speak to that, but I can't imagine it is much different from the black.

 

wow...I thought i was the only one on the forum with that combo ....good taste

 

sorry to Argelius its a wonderful color..many colors come out of it and when light is shined on it looks wonderful.....i recommend it

 

I love mine, it still is blue when overcast and dark, not like the orient blue which seems more black. As far as upkeep, I think it is similar to any dark car.

 

I have trhe Orient Blue w/black leather. Love the combo. Upkeep is a bitch though. I just noticed a few swirl marks as well

 

I like it.

 

Mystic Blue.
Titanium Grey.

Mystic Blue stays clean looking for quite a long time. When it's just washed and all sparkly and highly metallic in the sun, it's hard to beat.

Tough choice!! Either way, you win.

 

Don't regret it... Looking Black next so perhaps I'm mad! Looks a peach when polished - look at my pic to the left

Not too bad to keep clean and keeps looking ok when dirty. I've got a grey interior and think it's light and airy...
