Just wondering what you guyz thought of this color. I ordered my car in this and it will be produced shortly so I still have time to change before it goes into production.

If you look closely, it's not really black, but a very dark blue instead, like dark midnight blue, and from what I here, it looks very aggressive at night.

Carbon Black is the nicest color it comes in IMO.

I need to get myself one of those with a twin turbo M5 engine:)

color is awesome... I am at a toss up with that and imola red...

don't like the grey interior though...

wow thats a beautiful color.....

but i think it'll look better with black interior.

Absolutely gorgeous color. I don't think the interior combo is that bad, but it would probably be better with black interior.

Its either Black or Silver for Me- maybe Red but thats to bright for the cops to see and insurance to rack up

Cosmos Black is sweet - but Steel Gray would be my choice!

IMO, that's a very nice color for the new M3. Makes the car look mean :)

Hi SAFROLE,

Nice color...very nice!

It sure is nice to see you here! Bring some of your buddies over and show them what a we have to offer here.

Carbon Black is the <b><i>best</b></i> E46 color - in pictures at least. I'm curous to see how the blue shows through in person.

Carbon Black looks too bluish and purplish at some angles. I don't like it for this reason, but that's just personal preference. I would go jet black.

Especially at night......it's one of the most versatile color choices.....and should have a high resale value.

Just my .02, Ciao,

this is the color I am getting when my spot comes up, probably with black leather interior, unless they will have Kiwi available. I love CB, very nice.

are you going to the auto show ?

That M3 in CB is the sh!t. Gorgeous.
Why put that old-lady interior in it though?
C'mon burled wood? Some aluminium trim would look fantastic on a fantastic car!

The 'heat-seeking' black is nice, but I'm partial to the Orient Blue myself. Either one is fine. (Figures Black Majik would choose Black :-) )

The CB looks very very nice...

Although, for me, it's a tossup between Imola red w/ cinammon or silver w/cinammon interior. Although, that pic of the black sure is beautiful.

now here is the combo to get... CB and cinnamon..

:D

The above pic is what made me decide on getting the cinammon interior...now would it look better in IR or TS?

Unfortunately, I don't believe we can get that wood trim yet in the U.S. It compliments the cinammon interior sooooo well. Hopefully in 2002?

I don't think that I personnally would like it on IR... maybe TS..

I'm not gonna go by that picture though... before I would order it, I would check with the dealer to see a sample...

it does look sweet though..
