Monaco Blue on Saddle Tan

Here you go Dr Evil....Love this color combo - I'm not much of a photographer though!

I'm thinking a 5.0 Vermillion Red on Saddle when the lease on this 35i is up.....

thanks for posting this. It confirms my color choice. I love the dark blue and I wanted to get as close to the X6M color Carbon Black Metallic which has a hint of blue and must be seen to be believed.

Monoco blue seems to look black at night and is very sharp during day.

Oh, and on that last picture it looks as though you hand-polished the right front wheel shock absorber perch, way inside the wheel well.

Nice pics man!

WOW !!! This is the Color Combo we got.

we got,excuse me, we had the 50i in this color combo ;-( we had an addition to the family bringing us to three kids. since the X6 does not accomidate two child car seats we had to let her go for the 09 Diesel Audi Q7 S-line

we miss our X6 bad. everytime my wife sees one she grits her teeth and looks at me like it was all my fault.

I would stick with other color combinations to avoid the appearance that you bought the car stock.

It may not be stock, but that color choice is the typical factory assembly line type. Whereas if you changed it up a bit, your car would take on the look of a custom ride.

shadowline trim (on sport package) is a distinguishing mark.

Well, how do I respond to that?!

Feedback from others has been great and more importantly, the wife and I love it...It's top of my list on my next X6 too..That and a V8!

I think Saddle (not beige) is much more striking and more exclusive (at least in the Midwest USA) vs black and grey interiors

yes, the saddle is NOT beige. It is a richer color
