I have no issues with this with my Oyster Nappa interior which is a similar color.

WOW....LOVE this combo, the Citrine Black is fantastic, I would take this over all other colors... frozen'z as well...

Congratulations on the new Saloon (and Kudos on your great aesthetic taste)

just is a gorgeous color combination!!!

Rolitto · 04-24-2012, 09:24 AM

First of all Congrats on your new beast.

Tell me something, doesn't the citrine black metallic contain that dark brown metallic tone?

SoCali E36 · 04-24-2012, 10:13 AM

I really like that color. Congrats!

TonyMeister · 04-24-2012, 10:26 AM

As much as I think it's a very beautiful combination, I must say that light coloured interiors are a big no-no for me. They are a nightmare to keep it clean and tidy. Anyway, I wish you a very happy motoring.

UltimateBlogger · 04-24-2012, 10:28 AM

Very classy, enjoy!

+1

are there special requirements in taking care of the paint like the frozens?

Brennan · 04-24-2012, 11:07 AM

beautiful M5 mate

PeterM5 · 04-24-2012, 03:50 PM

Many thanks for all your kind comments and enthusiasm. I hope the pics are helpful for anyone trying to decide on their favourite colour. Basically this colour looks like a pretty standard black metallic until the sun comes out which is when you get the bronze colour coming through very clearly.

SamS - your comments about colour transfer from jeans are well made. New black jeans are definitely going to be a no-no with these seats!

09BlkSapphire - the leather is the Platinum Merino.

Etek - I am not aware of any special care requirements for the paint. There had better not be any - we've got a hose pipe ban in force around here due to drought!

NL-J · 04-24-2012, 04:18 PM

Wow, that's gorgeous!!

Ascari · 04-25-2012, 12:27 AM

THE BEST looking F10 M5 to date in my opinion. Well done, enjoy your new baby!

rmani · 04-25-2012, 11:32 AM
