4. I hate the color in the photos, what is that Marshmallow Metallic?
5. In Carbon Black Metallic it will be a killer.
6. It states that Carbon Black Metallic is exclusive to the M Sport Pack, does that mean there is no chance in hell to order that color separately now?
7. Still not loving the wheels, though they are okay. For some reason I still think the 214's look the best on the E70.
8. Interesting that they have front wheel fender arches (flares) on a US version (unlike the US spec E53 4.8is)
9. The running boards are horrible, though will probably look better in a dark color. They belong on a Escalade.
10. M steering wheel, does that mean no heater?

I believe it's Alpine White---probably looks metallic in the pictures. There was a Carbon Black X5M at one of the dealers here in Dallas I sat in. I'm a Jet Black fan but it did look sharp---though getting any kind of black on this M Sport pack with all the trim painted is a rock chip and paint scratch nightmare.
