Whats up fellas? I would love to see as many pics of E60's in Carbon Black as I can. A modded one would be a real prize. Just doing some R&D for the future. I appreciate any assistance you can provide.

All the best.

No mods, but they don't let you do that at the Welt.

No pictures yet because we are in the middle of the rainy season. But I LOVE my Carbon Black. It is subtle and classy. Car people and others all appreciate the colour. My mother-in-law even thought it was a 'beautiful' colour. Go for it!

I have CB with M-Sport pack on OEM M166 19s. Here's a whole load of pics of my ride basking in the Italian and Sardinian sun... http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=...amp;hl=sardinia

Carbon Black looks great -- only down side is that as a result of it looking so good, most people choose it!

Don't rule out Type 167 wheels. They look great on the E60. I know BMWSTL has a set on his 550. They are likely a lot easier to maintain than type 166s or 172s.
