2 years and 20k miles of having my 335 gt. I have now changed for the G05 X5. The GT was utterly reliable and never let me down and had loads of space but I succumbed to the charm of the G05 X5 so im in one now.

Beautiful X5 ... continuing the color scheme of the previous car. Congratulations!

bsm in x5 was too black just sucked the life out of the lines. Carbon Black shows off the lines in the sun but also is black when not too sunny. Plus also has a hint of dark blue in some angles.

Nice to hear that, since I've ordered myself a CB as well. Did you keep the F34 as well?

I was in the dealer today for service, and saw an X3 in the carbon black. Maybe because it was next to a mediterranean blue, or maybe the lighting, but it looked like a navy or midnight blue, very sharp.

in certain conditions it looks dark navy blue. In others it looks black. it shows the lines better. I don't plan to get black grilles and blacked wheels if i did bsm is best undoubtedly. If you wish to retain the chrome grilles and wheels carbon Black works well. Just my opinion.

if you had asked me earlier i would have given them for free. i suspect part exchange prices would have been same regardless of wheel size.

Didn't you also drop a bunch of money on suspension upgrade for the GT? Hopefully there was some RoI on that during trade-in.

Nice pickup, been wanting to upgrade to something bigger. Might have to follow suit.

If they could find a way to make carbon black smell like it’s namesake (carbon paper), we’d all be driving it.

Great color though I may be biased.
