Saw this awesome looking M parked

The car looked absolutely stunning (red interior inside). Perhaps photos don't do it justice... to the owner.

That's beautiful. I love the color and the red interior. I do like these wheels a lot, but I think I like the 300M wheels that come standard on this car more.

I made a thread yesterday, just ordered the same car with the same color combo inside and out, except with the stock wheels. Already scoping out mods

Every time I see an X5M in MCB it looks awesome, but I haven't seen an X6M in this color in person at all. And I live in South Florida, where these cars aren't exactly rare.

Thanks for posting!

Thanks for appreciating Here is another photo The car had inside brushed aluminium (the very bright silver one), it looked very good as it stood out against the red. I think for this red, as it is quite bright, it is one of the better choices. Again, the car looked stunning in real life and photos do not do it justice. Congrats on the awesome choice p.s. I have piano black trim in mine and it looks great, but my leather is a darker version of red (chateau, now discontinued).

Is the Monte Carlo blue completely of limits for non M cars? I ordered a sapphire black m50d but would change it to MCB any time!

I would get it in Deep Sea Blue Metallic with Vermillion Red, in case MCB is off the limits.

For the right price nothing is off-limits. I'm pretty sure for $5000 you could special order any color from BMW. The leather color, that can be a problem, but again for the right price BMW Individual will probably do it.

Love MCB on this and the X5M, great color. There is a DSB one around my area and don't care for it. Ddk, Congrats on the ///M order by the way.

Thanks Mike can D, it's been a tough 5 weeks and 2 days (12 days left!!!) but I've managed to survive with the help of YouTube and Vodka.

Agree you can't compare the colors, MCB wins hands down. I had a 2010 X6 35i in DSB, which was a nice color but it just really doesn't have any "pop". I got bored of the color pretty quickly.

I personally even prefer MCB to the new purplish blue color on the M6, San Sarino Blue. I see this one M6 vert every day (parked in my office complex) in that color and while its a stunning car, it's just that slight shade of purple I can't get myself to like.

MCB is classic and unique M color. You know it's an M when you see MCB. However, you can't get as much of a bad ass aggressive look like you can with the darker colors like Carbon Black or Sapphire Black. I split the difference with my X6M which is space gray with the 215 ferric gray wheels. It looks much more aggressive than an MCB one but you can see the X6's lines better than you can with a black car in my opinion.

I love space gray, have it or a couple of years (plain X6, no M in sight), you are right that it clearly shows the design lines of the car, looks awesome clean and does not look as bad when its a bit dirty (unlike black or white cars). Having said all of that, seeing this MCB M car in person was an experience, like my jaw dropped, plus it had red leather which is my favorite now (got bored of other interior colors).
