I agree the interior color sucks. If that car had the truffle brown with dark poplar wood I can't imagine it sitting on the lot long.

Adjust your monitor dude, the colors ain't the same. To really appreciate you have to see it in person, it's amazing.

Two more of CARBON black metallic.

Yeah, in person kinda looks dark bluesh. It reminds me of my old 550i. Carbon Black can't be appreciated in pictures.

Love the e39 M5 in Carbon Black/Caramel Interior! Also see a staff worker with a Carbon Black m3 with cinnamon... looks stunning.

Carbon black looks (and sounds) like a very cool colour. Might venture out this weekend and check out all the black finishes at the dealers and c/yards in person.

Am I right in assuming that all the above mentioned colours are metallic (as most Bimmer's are) ??
