I have black sapphire and really like it. I almost went with Singapore Grey but the car didn't have the options I really wanted. Removing options from the deliberation process, I would have to say Singapore Grey then Sapphire then White. I have seen a few Grand Coupes in White (both M and regular 6 series with M sport) and they seem a bit flat to my eye.

Karim, sorry I wasn't so clear in my original message. The old color is my current 2006 525, something between space grey and SG. I really like Singapore Grey but is it enough of a change? Plus Alpine white, especially when you see pictures like in these, make it tough to decide!!!! The options are the same as I will be ordering the M6 in May for July production, October delivery!

Oh I see now. White is more practical, you won't see any scratches or rock chips on it, looks clean all the time, and you can add cf mods later for an awesome look. Also, it's always chill in summer.
I had a carbon black 750, car looked dirty most of the time, you could see rock chips clearly, scratches would stand out in sunny weather, and it is burning hot in summer. On the other hand it looked very solid and mean White is more of a pure luxury style.

haha i see most people here like the SG. That's the color I'm leaning towards for my order. I would love a white one again but I think I'm keeping the e92 m3 so definitely don't want two white cars + the white x5

I agree for the most part. I drive my m3 up north but I don't think it matters. The aerodynamics of these cars will make the rear dirty as hell in no time lol. I like to think both white and black gets dirty super easy. I believe grey is the best to hide dirt.

I always used to think Black Mercedes S class is the shiet! OF course when it came time to get one, we got a white one. Looks more luxurious indeed!
