2014 X5 Colors?

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hi guys,

we were gonna order the new '14 X5 for my mother....BUT she only wants a blue...preferably sth like the 'montego blue' or similar to that.
PROBLEM: Bmw doesn't seem to offer a similar color for the new x5 and also special ordering seems not possible. To her, functionality and the color is important, lol.
Any ideas what one could do?

Thanks

Hello Jonny,

Ideas? Yess....patience

Imperial blue should be available con the new Bmw X5 F15 in a few months, most probably starting from December 2013 or January 2014.


Take care,
Alessandro

Let me jump on that one if you don't mind..

Another blue - although very dark - would be Carbon Black Metallic, available when you would go with the M Line.

That - along Imperial Blue - will be the only blue-ish color available on the F15 in the US for now.

FYI: The image Alessandro posted actually shows Carbon Black..

Any thoughts on Soarkling Brown? Went to BMW showroom yesterday and I couldn't find any cars made in brown.
Also, 3 to 4 cars sold out of 5 appears to be white or black in X5.
So, I am looking for alternatives. Dark Graphite is close to black sapphire.

Yeah.

1)
Spray it.

2)
Wrap it.

3)
Buy a white one AND a pair of dark blue shades.

... think outside the box.
