Hey everybody!!!

I'd like to have your opinion!!!

I have ordered the 535d (biturbo power ) with the M Sport Package!!!
Wheels: probably the M Sport Package optional 19" (Available from March)

For the colour I'd like to have your opinion!!
Here in Belgium I've only seen 3 E60's with the M Sport Package so it's very difficult to decide which colour looks best with the Sport Package.
When I see pictures of an E60 with M Sport Package, it's 99% in Carbon Black!
Carbon Black is a very very beautiful colour and exclusive for the M Sport package, but we own already a carbon black BMW and you need to clean the car almost twice a week!!

My question to you:
Silbergrau or titansilber on the M Sport Package????

Do you have pictures of an E60 with M Sport Package in these colours???

And about the interior??
The Alu Cube or ...?
We're gonna take the seats completely in leather, which colour would you choose with sibergrau/titansilber?


Thanks a lot,

Hi,

Almost any picture on the net showing the M sports package features Carbon Black, it is indeed a very nice color.

Your concern about the cleaning of the car is also right but to my opinion (I had various cars in titansilver-like colors) you have to choose between a nice way-sportier looking dark color or one that doesn't need cleaning often but isn't as stunning.

If you prefer comfort you'ld go for the silver but if you want your car really looking stunning you should definitly go for a dark color like the Carbon. During summertime you will appreciate it even more!

Maybe my remark is a bit off topic since I haven't seen the package in other colors but it's something I wanted to share.

kind regards,
Destiny

In my opinion Silver Grey, 19" alloys, black dakota, light poplar wood should do it.
Thats what I've ordered

I wud take Silver Grey( nice colour for the shades and easy for maintenance compared to Black, Tit Sil is also good but every second car on the road is Silver now), Alu Cube (its an integral part of the M-Pack and IMHO it is at least better than any standard wood trims), Black leather.

My vote goes to silvergrey with M sport pack too (a good compromise). I've actually decided on my options (M sport pack, comfort pack and business pack and sun roof)but need to see the color combi in person at the Geneva car show. My first color combo is silvegray-dakota kastanienbraun-popular vein?brun insert-black carpet. I've seen it in a 3 series and wow! Second is black-black-black.

Go again with carbon black...makes the car look so much more sporty in comparison with a light colored E60!
