I've found that Moonstone is generally ignored in overcast weather (when it's looking titanium silver or light gold), but I've had several occurrences of other drivers hanging on my third quarter on the motorway in sunny weather.
I'm personally bemused at just how many people mistake a 3 series for a 5 or vice versa, VW Golf & Polo, etc.
With so many EB F30s M Sports in the UK, MCB will 'blend', std f10 colours such as Sapphire Black or Space Grey will be the ultimate sleeper M5 colours... |
I actually think that people mistake the F10 for the F01 7-Series more. I catch myself seeing a 7-Series on the street and then realizing it's actually a 5-Series. They look too similar from a distance. I'm sure with my black M5 people think it's a 7 a lot. Lol! Oh accept for this one time when I had my M5 parked out in front of my condo building here in DC and some random passerby'er commented that I had a nice looking Dodge Charger. I wish I was joking about this. I think it's cause Virginia, DC, and Maryland use a lot of murdered out Dodge Chargers for unmarked cop cars. Oh and North Carolina is really bad for it too! Doh!! I said to the guy, thanks! And let him keep thinking my M5 was a Dodge Charger. Lol!
