X6m Color

Aleksg · 11-18-2011, 10:20 AM

Hey guys,
Getting ready to order my BMW x6m 2013 however need some advise which should Color should I go for?

Carbon black on cinnamon
Or
Monte Carlo blue on cinnamon

And should I ditch the roof railing or keep it on?!

Between the two, I'd go with Carbon Black. However, my opinion is very reserved on the cinnamon interior. Personally, I think its the worst color out of the options available. However, I do know of many people who are very fond of that color.

When I built my x6m on bmwusa, the cinnamon Color that is over there is not like the on the one I saw at the dealership, it's kinda like the range rover tan Color Amazing! When I saw it on the carbon black x6m it was love!

Where I live the carbon black Color might look a bit obsolete after a while, this is why I am thinking of the monte cArlo blue.. What do u guys think ?

Hands down you will have to go with the cinnamon interior. That's what I have as well. I first had a carbon black exterior for about two months and then traded it in for an alpine white as the CB was a pain to maintain and I didn't want to invest in a detailing shop.

The MCB is a great color as well as it is unique to the M series. Good luck in your choice you can't go wrong with any color combo.

Thanks a lot mate,
Was thinking that the mcb would bring out the m detailing of the x6 m more than the carbon black.

I also thought about the Color and how it's hard to maintain and wash every now and then

Quick question, regarding the interior what's the difference between the perforated colors that come in silver stone, beige and black, and all the other ones?!

And can I have the perforated cinnamon orange Color?

IGotId · 11-19-2011, 10:55 AM

both are beautiful colors, however i think CB is better suited to the X6/X5...

dom55 · 11-19-2011, 04:22 PM

I would go with the MCB with Cinnamon and I would skip the roof rails. The X6 roof rails are not as sleek as the X5 M ones, the X6 M rails look goofy to me.

Aleksg · 11-19-2011, 05:09 PM

This was exactly what I was thinking! Thanks for your opinion !!

doug_999 · 11-19-2011, 05:24 PM

MCB is unique to the X5M/X6M (at least here in the States - at least I think). So I would go with that.

The issue with the Cin leather is you can't get it ventilated (I think as well).

Monte Carlo Blue is an excellent color because it really brings out all of the body lines. I get more comments about the color of my X6M from just plain old normal people who happen to notice it because it stands out from the huge number of black, grey, silver, white vehicles on the road these days.

I would go with the black and cinnamon get rid of the roof rack. Cheers.....

Here's my X5m, Carbon Black Metallic / Cinnamon to give you an idea what the combo looks like.

Aleksg · 11-21-2011, 12:45 PM

Aleksg · 11-23-2011, 01:02 PM

They're the standard seats. The active seats only came in colors I didn't want. Good luck with your order.

Beautiful Color mate,

Made my order finally. Mcb with cinnamon

I'm going to contact the dealership regarding the x6m light alloys 21" 310, what do you guys think shall I have it or keep up with the normal m 5 double spoke alloys.

I'm also thinking of ordering the matte black grill, carbon black spoiler and the carbon diver splitter.

The m performance kit can be found on the forum.
Frankfurt 2011 m performance kit.

Would the car be looking dorky with the spitter and the spoiler in carbon and the car is a monte blue

How about the alloys?!?
