640 carbon black. Do like the hint of blue in the colour. Cinnamon brown interior. A nice contrast IMO.

Congrats and welcome! I'm loving my CB paint, too. It adds some interest to the world filled with normal black cars.

Good to see another 6 in the UK! Love Carbon Black, I have an CB E39 M5, but it's a mare to keep clean.

Was a bit nervous, thinking did I made the right choice after reading other comments re 20" experiences. Just moved away from a Z4 35i with 19" style 326 wheels which was skittish, tramlined and you felt every bump on the road - mine didn't crack, unlike a lot of others who have reported this issue in the past. It's feels completely different, I've always had rft (won't start that debate) but there appears to be less road noise, more forgiving on uneven roads, good handling. In the uk, the roads are awful!! This was a pleasant surprise, obviously still avoiding the crater size pot holes on most roads these days! I am happy with them, plus I think they look amazing! Most comments I get so far, I like the carbon black and the wheels!
