My contribution.. Tanzanite Blue Metallic II
Love this beast so far...first blue car...diamond sound system is amazing... exhaust is incredible for stock...Jekyll and Hyde demeanor...
Couple of cons after a week of ownership...as some have mentioned, new software is glitchy, digital key fob is nice but useless, additional cost to fully use all features via WiFi..thanks for the threads with tips.. Last edited by JSCO; 06-07-2019 at 09:17 PM.. |

Love the colour and your all black exterior trims and white interior are just perfect choices to match. Awesome.

JSCO, congratulations on your new car and hope you are enjoying the Beast. After seeing your post and the same color M850i in person, I am getting ready to order the same Tanzanite Blue with white interior. A few questions: 1) Any problems keeping the white leather and carpet clean?, 2) You mention the Diamond sound system is amazing. I have the Harmon Karden 7 in my current 650 and always thought it was an adequate system. Is the Bowers & Wilkens system definitely worth the upgrade?, 3) Do you have the driver assist option? 4) Does your car have the alcantara headliner? 5) I plan to order the carbon roof and black wheels. Any other options that you would recommend? Thanks.

The interior is more like a cream...and yes it is a pain to keep clean...recommend coating your seats... Driver assist can be annoying...it warns you way too quickly...if you ignore it, the system will flash red at you and deactivate for a few mins...your in a timeout....also, when correcting your driving(lane keep) the correction is too harsh IMO...surrounding car detection is great...makes driving on the highway a breeze if you just want to relax.. Yes to Alcantara headliner...again gives it a premium feel...although I will say I'm disappointed you can now get the same interior to include the gauges in the latest X6 I have all the carbon fiber bits (rear spoiler, lower diffuser, side mirrors, front lower intakes, etc). I recommend you do the same...the blue with the Carbon is just amazing...couple pics for you.. Let me know how it works out for you and welcome to Bimmerpost. |

Stunning colour, it reminds me a little of Carbon Black which was equally a fantastic colour, someitmes black, sometimes blue depending on the sun.

Mani, my current 650 is carbon black. I have always liked the color, but think the tanzanite blue also looks great and will be a nice change, since almost everyone in my area drives black cars! Thanks.
