most definatly! The sapphire black has a very distinct metallic tone to it which makes it really sparkle under lights at night (at a gas station for example), and during the day it gives the black a certain depth. The down side is that when it gets dirty, it looks like this sort of dirty gray color which is really nasty

.

Jet black on the other hand looks really deep and black when its clean, but when its not perfectly clean, it looks sort of flat and dull and a little cheap, takes away some of the class of the car IMO.

Id go for the metallics anyday, they just give the car so much more..

Black is so nice, but I refuse to buy it because the upkeep is simply rediculious! And I like my cars nice and shiney 100% of the time! Silver or white is for me

Ewrek · 04-08-2005, 04:10 AM

Thanks Mark@V5, I really appeciate it. I most definately will get sapphire black now!!!

Only wheels dealer installed.

Alpina does not do "tuning". They build complete cars and as such don´t have an E90 in their portfolio yet. Expect a true Alpina E90 to be at least one if not two years away (the Alpina version of the E60 jst came out)

Jerel56 · 04-17-2005, 01:47 PM

....Wow, the black looks incredible and confirms my decision to get Saphire!!

jl215 · 04-18-2005, 04:37 PM

Black is sliiiick.

Jason · 04-19-2005, 05:51 PM

First black with lemon interior I've seen. Wasn't sure how good light interior would be on dark interior but I think it looks good.

SoCalS2k · 04-20-2005, 12:30 AM

Black definitely needs clear light reflectors and it looks great with angel eyes

kchika · 04-20-2005, 04:33 AM

Black is so damn sexy
