X6 M Silverstone Metallic

Have not ordered yet. Want to see the Siverstone in person but no dearships have any in that color. Do not care what kind it is I just want to see the color.The pic's sometimes look a very nice silver or a ok powder blue. The pain chip at the dealers looks like silver.Opinions please on that color. Or white.

Thanks

They definately have a light bluish tint to it when you see them in person. Not as silvery as the titanium silver 3s. Personally, not a fan at all.

What interior are you purchasing? I will stop by the BMW dealership in Berlin and send you over the color combos since they have all the swatches. Send over the other colors that you are considering.
Selecting the colors was a bit of an annoying experience since I could not look at the actual colors..so happy to help.

My dealship has the swatches but not the car in any color. I would probably get black interior. Now I have alpine white and black interior 2010 X6 M. Just looking for a bit of change. Maybe alpine w/ bamboo interior. The swatch kind of looks bright butterscoth.

Okay, lucky you. I did not even get to see the swatches before my order, and the "MidNight Blue" Swatch that the dealership received was not even the right one for the x6. I'll assume you don't need me to take photo then.

I've got a Silverstone x5m. The silver does have a faint blue tint that is more pronounced during daytime. In lower light conditions it looks like a very deep silver with no traces of the blue. In lower light, the vehicle's sheet metal curves are highlighted.
