What color is this F15? wrong notation on BMWUSA site?
Unable to upload pics to this thread due to higher resolution. Please access them here @ http://www.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=846222
The first set of pics under Wall Papers (The car titled with 8463) Vs Pics under Xdrive50i - Car titled with 4707. (These appear to be sparkling brown). BMWUSA has a media gallery on their X5 page and states clearly car titled with 8463 as Sparking Brown. However, they don't appear to be Sparking Brown. There is a huge difference in colors from both the sets. I think the car in 8463 is Dark Graphite and not Sparking Brown. Can anyone confirm? |

Well, if you ask me, 4707 and 8463 are both sparkling brown.
Sparkling Brown can be tricky and depending on light conditions (and even photo equipment used to take these images - like lenses, specific filters etc.), the same color can appear much different. I checked the gallery on bmwusa.com and there are indeed two images where the X5 appears to be darker. However, pay close attention to the conditions: There was no sun on these two images. On the other pictures, you can see a clear brown touch ("sparkle") in the sun. Oh, you might be interested in this. The 8463 looks brown to me... Last edited by 760Lifan; 08-20-2013 at 11:12 AM.. |
