2021 X5 M Sport Carbon Black
Thought you might all enjoy these pics from my detailer.
BMW X5 M Sport 40i Carbon Black Enhancement pack Satin Black 22s with red calipers Black vernasca leather with brown contrast stitching Had it for a few weeks now, absolutely love it! For those deciding between Carbon Black and Sapphire Black I'll just say this... you can't go wrong. Carbon Black is navy in some light, and black in other lights. Even if you don't like blue cars (I don't like blue) it isn't a blue that makes you think... man I wish I bought a black car. Gorgeous colour, and I think it contrasts beautifully with the red calipers and slightly smoked rear lights. Last edited by crseven; 09-11-2021 at 12:09 PM.. |

You have the wheel on the wrong side.
Careful while driving. |

We saw a X5M in sapphire when we picked the car up. It's noticeably more black. The X5M looked amazing to be honest, but it's +$100k AUD. I like how this colour changes in different lights, not something you get out of a flat black car. |

I've had a black E70 and black ML63 - think these cars look better in darker colours but it is more of a commitment to look after. The X5M does look serious mean but for me this X5 is to tow a track car - so air suspension and the 3.5 ton tow hitch are the big features. I'm happy with the spec but it is all theory until the car actually arrives next week. Fingers crossed it all works out as planned. |

I only ever imagined getting this in black on black, so I'm glad Carbon looks as good as it does. Only other colour I'd consider is Alpine white. But I don't think it looks as nice. An X5M drove beside me in silver the other day, didn't look anywhere near as mean as my car. It's gorgeous on the road. Looks mean, but also looks prestigious and luxurious. I don't think the RRS for example has the same luxurious look in black on black, it just looks like a drug dealer car. |

So many good reviews on the G05 with any engine. I've got the 30D coming as it is a tow car for me. I couldn't believe how torquey the engine was when I test drove it - it is going to be addictive. I've got the cognac interior - sight unseen - so will be interesting to see how that looks in the flesh. Most people on here seem positive about it. However your black trim might be the smart choice. |

I test drove the 30D and ended up buying the 40i as that's all the dealership had. Can't go wrong with either. I've never had anything other than a black interior, I think I'd personally get sick of another colour. |

Nice! Those wheels with the red calipers look pretty nice as well!
