Looks good in all those colours except maybe Amazonite Silver Metallic. Probably looks better in person tho.

Amazonite Silver is simply amazing.
I wouldn't buy it in that color, but it's very unique, stands out, and gorgeous to look at. It left me with the "wow" feeling.

The Champagne Quartz Metallic ///M5 was a jaw dropper, amazing colors. Although I'm not digging the Amazonite Silver, a bit dull and gloomy looking

Amazonite Silver looks gorgeous, but I think it's the wrong color choice for how aggressive the M5 is.

IMO matte paint jobs and wraps have really been over done the last 2 years.

First Amazonian Silver on any BMW that I've seen. Verrry unique.
Azurite Black is just gorgeous in bright conditions. Got any of moonstone? Haven't seen any M5 in moonstone since the one that was at the Frankfurt auto show. |

Amazonite Silver Metallic doesn't do for me. May be too much green - probably the photo. With correction or in person as pointed out in the above thread will make a difference.

It almost reminds me of a eucalyptus green. Not my style personally but still interesting.

Amazonite is really one of these colours that needs a lot of natural light to shine through , as you can see the overcast makes it more green but it comes alive in strong sunlight that in the flakes you see the greens,yellows,blues and silvers all combined. It also helps if you are back on the 20" wheels too. I would say that it is definitely one of those colors that has to be seen first and not ordered blind.
