can't speak for M sport, but Deep Sea Blue is a stunning color for the X3. I love mine - its 35i sport package but not M. I am of the belief that red is a cop magnet = speeding tickets. would love to see your picts with either color you choose. the flip side for red, is it seems like its extremely rare.

Nope, that is Deep Sea Blue. I had one for an extended test drive, and again as a loaner, and that's how it looked in my garage. Carbon black has a hue of blue, but more to the purple end, and not nearly so "blue".

Its Carbon black in the first link. When under artificial lights, like flouresecent lights it is very blue.

Look at mine in the sun... it looks bluer under artificial light...

I drove a 535 loaner in Deep Sea Blue around for a good 7 weeks and it was much lighter and far more purple than that X3 in the link I replied to. Especially under such bright show lights, Deep Sea Blue would look more luminous, almost a violet color from certain angles at body creases.

Mako - re your comparison Msport in Deep Sea Blue vs. Vermillion Red...gotta take a good look at these picts. beautiful.

I have been quite content w/ my 35i w/ SAP but not msport - these picts made me want msport for the first time. its not happening since i took delivery 2 weeks ago, so I'll just go back to drooling over these picts

Here is a production video for our DSB Msport/Oyster. I'll be sure to get more pics when it actually gets here!

I always thought the car at the autoshow was carbon black, but everybody said no.

We had a deep sea blue Msport sell from our other location, so I never got pictures. However, it did look amazing for the few seconds I did get to see it.
