Yes, CB is dark unless in the sun, and then that's when the blue undertones really show. The other identifying factor is that you can't get imperial blue with MSport…

My favorite color! I wished they had it available for the 335i and I ordered mine.

another very similar color is azurite black--also blue metallic flakes.
and another is jerez black, also bluish, but some say it can look purple.
citrin black has red flecks.

just google these colors with "images" selected and you'll get tons of pics.

the blue only comes out with a lot of sun; otherwise these cars look black.

imperial blue is a pretty great dark blue.

just about any color is available on an "individual" basis
