Picked up our new Cape York Green standard X1 with oyster seats, premium package and remote start. I really don't think any pictures I've seen do the color justice. Love the color! Will take more pics later, but she's a dream to drive! Had to drive her 75 miles in the pouring rain from the Salem, Oregon dealership. Great team! We purchased our car and plan to keep her a long time. Bought the 10 year warranty.
Didn't go with X-line as we preferred the mirrors being the same color as the car. May swap out the grill for the silver trimmed one at some point. |

Cape York Green Metallic was the first color that I considered when I was placing the X1 order. (specifically Cape York with Oyster interior)
Ended up getting the Space Silver Metallic with Alcantara black interior and picked it up a week ago. My BMW salesman said that it was the only silver X1 that they had ordered for customers since October.(out of more than 60 that they sold so far) Is silver no longer popular in Europe and US/Canada these days? |

Mine is space silver as well. I over the past few years have either had black blue or grey but fancied a change this time. I think grey is the most popular colour in the U.K. and has been for a while now.
I am glad I chose the silver as it seems to be a rare colour at the moment even though the dealer I bought from has sold 3 in the last couple of months. |

I saw the pictures you posted of your silver X1. It's so pretty.... especially since it does not have those ugly amber reflectors in the front headlight housings like mine has... required for all cars in the US thanks to silly US regulations https://u11.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=124 Last edited by SpaceSilverX1; 05-06-2023 at 05:14 PM.. |

I agree it isn’t like the bright Titanium silver that used to be available on BMW’s the Space Silver is more subtle and like a lot of the metallics tends to look different in different light.

Silver used to be the default choice for premium German cars then they oversaturated the market and people went for dark greys, black and now blues. However its hard to argue they look great on most cars, and I believe will make a bit of a comeback especially as black has dropped away…
