M5 Touring Color Help

Hi everyone!

Hello from Madrid, Spain. I will be ordering the M5 Touring to replace my X5M on Wednesday the 25th, which is apparently the day BMW will be opening the bookings in Spain. I will also revert back with more details about options and packages as soon as I ge them.

I have owned grey cars and blue cars in the last few years (currently have an Artic Grey X5M), but would like to move towards a green color, which I have wanted for a long time.

I don't like too much the IOM green, as I would like something a little more sober and darker.

I'm between the following options.

I am also not sure if I should go UNI or Metallic...

- Verde British Racing Green Uni
- Oxford Green II Metallic
- Aurora Diamond Green Metallic
- Goodwood Grean Pearl
- Other?

Can I get some help?

Thank you everyone!

Is individual an Option for you? Are you a Fan of red or orange Colors?

I guess you could say that as every option listed are Individual paints.

Yes absolutely it is an option! In fact all of them are individual options... :-)

Not a big fan of orange, maybe red but I would really much prefer Green.

Thanks!

Oxford would be my choice of those on your list. It’s sober and classy without being boring. I had it on one of my E36s when I was in my 20s…long time ago. It was cool enough for a young man but also classy and I did not tire on it the 4 years I had it. British racing green is sober but IMO one of the most boring colors ever made. If it ain’t on a classic Jag, forget it.

Thank you everyone...

At the moment Oxford Green is my preferred choice, but VBRG is also up there... happy to hear any other recommendation!

I have owned several sports cars, but as a father of a young family now, and considerings the type of meetings I attend for work etc, I don't want to show up in something other than a classy yet sporty and elegant color combination. Hence also why the VBRG instead of the BRG... I have been told VBRG is darker.

Again, open to all suggestions!

Oxford is nice and classy, have never received so many compliments on color before (most think it's BRG). It's quite dark when the sun isn't shining, pretty close to Tanzanite in that regard.

Thank you so much!

I have placed an order today, as soon as the orders opened, for an Oxford Green M5 Touring with CCBs and black interiors. :-)

I'll share some info as I get it from the dealer!

Thank you everyone for your inputs!
