I was worried about getting carbon black. Mainly keeping it clean and seeing scratches but after seeing it I am so happy with my choice

What I love about this color is that it looks dark blue in sunlight and black at night. I'm really loving it. I almost went with the white or grey but i'm happy so far with my choice.

The wait was pretty difficult. I'm not a very patient person lol. But in the end I think the wait was worth it.
Hey; how much did you paid for your car? I tried life quality before I went to maryland to get my 2012 550xi, life quality wants $1000 over invoice. in maryland i got my car at invoice pricing, even with delivery to nyc, it's still cheaper than getting it from life quality.

I felt like I got a good deal. It's my second car that I purchased from them. I paid $67k which was about 700-800 over invoice. I also received $2750 in rebates on top.

They only gave you half a tank of gas when you picked her up? Shoulda made them fill it up!

Life Quality gave me 1.5k under invoice with no incentives or anything. Hassel was around $500 over invoice.
Gotta say though, Life Quality service department needs a lot of improvement. They do service tons of BMWs though.

I just noticed you had wood interior. I was told by a dealer that Msports come with the aluminum trim. It looks nice but wood would have been nice also. I picked her up last night.

I also have a '13 535xi carbon black m sport. Love the car and have the black grills. I like them tremendously over the stock silver. Picked it up from Rallye.
Only problem is that Sandy decided to "polish" it with some of my roofing shingles so now my hood and fender need to be repainted...with only 2k miles on it. Bummer, but it is still an awesome car!

If you want to take a look at it with black grills, here's mine. I also added a blue and red pinstripe to match the M colors.

Beautiful car! The Nappa interior looks really sharp. I have a 2011 and I like your updated dash illumination better than mine. Enjoy your car and stay under the radar.
