New 535i M sport Alpine White vs. Carbon Black
Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and will be purchasing my new 535i M sport next week, but I have a bit of a dilemma.
I'm on the fence between an Alpine White or a Carbon Black 535i. The interior on both are black dakota, with anthracite wood trim, and anthracite head liner. Any suggestions taking the following into consideration: 1. Overall look (luxurious vs. sporty) 2. Looking dirty easily 3. Problems with swirls after some time. |

I went for a Carbon black & Im loving it... 90% of the times it looks black but blue only in sunshine from different angles. Im attaching a picture where you can see its looking black in sunshine as well. Anyway its a tough choice as both are good colours.

That was one of my bigger worries with CB is that it would seem too blue in during the day. Your car looks great! Just made my choice even harder, haha. |

Carbon black is f10 m sport only if i am not mistaken. Alpine white is available for all models in bmw line up. I think the choice is pretty clear

My brother just purchased new f10 m sport with Jet Black last week. He was going to get CB but when we went to the dealer CB looked more like navy color from the sunlight. Since jet black was right next to the CB one he had easy compare on both car. For us, jet black looked more clean and it had cinnamon brown interior so he bought the Jet Black. The color combination was perfect. It's your choice but if you dont want too much navy color go with AW or if you want clean black go with Jet black.

i'm sick of AW - it's really nice looking but seems to be the only color that I see in the F10 thus far. Go for black
