I am waiting for the 535d in the US. In the meanwhile I have visited many dealerships with lots of colors on display to decide on a color. All I can tell you is that everytime I go I change my mind!

Most consistent on the top list every time I go are AW and Space Grey.

But Sophisto and Black Metallic are always in the mix just not sure I would like for 5 years.

Jet Black is great if I had time to keep it up.

I also think the same of Carbon Metallic - great color but how much work?

Titanium - basic and dependable. Not too exciting but with a nice black interior and headliner it would be an easy car to take care of.

The Blues look nice in person from certain angles with a dark rich color. Other times it just looks "too" blue.

The darkhorses are Mojave and Tasman Green. Mojave is very nice but again not sure it is a color you like in 3-5 years. Tasman looks almost grey from some angles/sunlight. Actually a lot less green from all angles than I would have anticipated.

One thing that I certainly decided on is that the interior most likely will be black Dakota or Nappa and depending on the exterior possible black headliner.

Now you see my dilemma! Help!
