I love my Titanium Grey II but have to admit that the white E60's I see on the road really catch my eye, especially with sport pkg. White has a way of showing off the great lines of the car like no other color, will seriously consider white for my next 5er.

Once you go black, you can't go back! 
But seriously, when black is clean... it's simply beautiful.

I have decided the interior to be Creme Beige with dark Bamboo trim, but totally stuck on the colour choice.
For a M sports package 535i, which exterior to go for?
In a perfect world, I'll go for Alpine white with Auburn interior, or Carbon Black with Auburn. But...
Black is an S to keep clean, white looks like an ambulance...What to do?

I've never seen an AW in person when I ordered my car and I was really nervous about the look of it during that waiting period before the car arrived. But once I saw my car in the dealership, BAMBAMBAM, I love it and I still love it now.
You can always come to one of our meet to see if you like it. I think we have 3 Alpine White here in TO who's also on this forum and we also have a Carbon Black that attend our meet too.

I am not considing the space grey or titanium grey because that is the current colour of my car and the one before. The space grey is gorgeous and wonderful looking.
AW is outstanding and very eye catching especially when it shines. If I go for it , tinting will be on the list of first mods.
BUT, that left me a little concern.
Would AW be too easily spotted by cops and create unwanted attention?
I mean there are occasions a cop was either hiding in front , or just happen to appear from nowhere on my back.
Among traffic, the more eye catching white car may help attract the cop's attention and have his sight log onto you easier (even from afar), knowing myself that could up a higher chance of getting into trouble.
Loosing the stealthiness of a darker more 'normal' looking automobile is lingering on my mind today.
