add those 19" M5 wheels and possibly the M bodykit too. It just looks delicious, especially at night with HID's on.
(but only if you can afford to change it after two years when the shine is gone)

Mine is Titanium Silver on Black leather with Aluminum Cube trim = This is the Sportiest Combination for an E60
Also, the most practical Inside & out. Silver & Silver grey are the most forgiving colours on the outside (I had a black car = I know) and Black leather is the sportiest especially with Aluminum Cube trim and also the most stain resistant (dust shows, but easy to wipe).

I think dark colors look better on E60.
I prefer Oxford Green over Black because:
1. Black looks good only when it's clean.
2. There are way too many black BMWs on the road.
3. Green matches Beige interior the best in my opinion.

Titanium Gray, because it was the darkest gray color.
Titanium silver looks like a rental car. Silver Gray is better, but I prefer the titanium gray more.
Plus, I have the only titanium gray E60 that I've ever seen on the road. So I feel like I have a rare car.

Actually, there are 3 or 4 total in your neck of the woods!!! I do agree, rarely do see a Ti-Gray E60. Many on lookers say......depending on how the light hits the car, it can give off a greenish or blue hue, and at night seem black.
2007 TiGray E60 w/ Auburn Leather & Anth. Trim.........What A Combo!!!!!!!!
to all Titanium Gray owners.

...that just leaves that baby poo 'olivine'. That is just hideous - no explanation necessary. ...
My dealer admitted that he had never seen that colour before, and that he thought it looked WAY better than he expected.
It doesn't appear to be green in any way, more like what other brands call 'Champagne'
AND being a Dane, I really appreciate this colour being much more practical than fx. a Jet Black, which looks pretty grimy after driving approximately 5 minutes in the typical scandinavian winter...

Dont really think there are any bad colours. Olivine and that bronzy colour look good as long as the car is specced with decent size wheels, etc.
I chose Deep Green metallic for mine. I think its an evolution of the old Oxford Green but is a lot darker, in fact it looks black in some lights.
Looks absolutely stunning IMO in combination with the Individual Champagne leather and black piano wood interior.
Cant say Ive ever seen another green M Sport on the road or advertised for sale anywhere...Perhaps I just have weird taste!
