I'm looking for some nice pics about the spacegrau color on the E60. I saw some pics (small) , but I'm afraid they don't reflect the actual colour very good.
The pics I saw where all from BMW, so they might be chopped

First off -

Your best bet is the official BMW web-site or some of the threads recently posted about the new Face Lift. There were all sorts of pictures posted, but can't remember explicitly seeing spacegrau.

Anyone out there have a picture to hand...??

Go to http://www.bmwusa.com/Vehicles/3/335iCoupe/Gallery.htm, click "color". You can find the spacegrey, 4th from the right.
But that's on a 335ci though. It looks slightly different from the one I saw in a magazine. But then, other colours on that site are also slightly off, as usual.

Do you like it?
Are you thinking of ordering a facelift E60?

Some people say Space Grey can look very flat and dull. I have seen a few E90 coupes here and can see what they mean. In the showroom it looks better. I think it's a colour that looks well very clean on a sunny day but a dull almost matt finish on an overcast day.

There's another new grey called Platinum Grey (exclusive of the E60 LCI so far). Noone has seen it yet but judging from the name it might be a bit darker.

"Space" is lighter than "Platinum"? Interesting. My wedding ring is Platinum and it's pretty light. In fact I'd call it "silver".

Certainly IMHO the facelift grey I've seen in the available pics looks like a battleship.

BTW since you ask the question, are YOU thinking of ordering a facelift e60?
