Thank you! You are right. The slight golden hue does not come through well in digital imaging. One of the nicest things about this color is that it changes a lot depending on the light at different...

Thank you, brocks. Mineral Silver is only available (so far) on 6 series and X6. I am not sure if it would work well on 3,5,7 X3 or even X5. Perhaps the most impressive thing about the X6 is that it...

Definitely ugly. And it's an Acura..a toy compared to a BMW. I find it amusing how the Japanese vehicles are always trying to know BMW off of the top ranks. It will never happen.
