I'm now leaning to switching from Imperial Blue to Space Gray. Imperial Blue doesn't look good from a distance, or on overcast days. Only looks good in bright direct sunlight. Space Gray seems at least sporty, and the color compliments the shadow line trim nicely.

I'm always amazed how BMW sales brochures prominently feature blue cars, oftentimes on the cover (see the 745, 750, and 5-series brochures), while so few customers actually buy blue BMW's. BTW, I think you're being generous in calling Space Grey a "color" ! It's just another shade of B & W.
