I have to disagree Znod. Opinions/personal choices are never a science.

It has been proven scientifically many times that Silver Gray is the best color. But, I guess I'll just have to prove it again.

Well, except that opinions and preferences have been studied scientifically many times. Did I forget to reference the studies proving that the vast majority of all humans prefer silver gray?

I think it looks best in Interlagos Blue, Ti Gray, Silver Gray, and White.
Ti Silver is such a rental car color. :thumbsdown:

Can you order an E60 550 in Interlagos Blue? I thought this color was reserved for M cars only??????

TiAg/Black Leather



My third one in a row.
I keep saying I will change to something else, but lately cannot seem to deviate.

It never looks dirty until you get close up.

I LOVE black, but am far to anal retentive to be able to drive it - I'd be waxing it every weekend and my wife would leave me

My points go to Mystic blue and carbon black (+ other black ones like sapphire black, jet black,...)

I look blue tints in cars so therefore those 2 choices
