Actually drove the car yesterday. Incredible color in person. Very happy with it. Picking it up Tuesday.

Hi guys, I'm currently selling my M5 competition, and im having problems with the front bumper, I didn't want to blend wings and and bonnet due to costs, however explaining to buyers about this paint as to match the bumpers is proving near impossible, I'm a spray painter myself and understand that bumpers in general do have slight differences in shade however trying to explain to a customer who's buying the vehicle is frustrating as they expect it to match perfectly. People just don't understand the properties in this paint. It's flips different shades in different light. Personally I love it and it's different to usual black/whites etc. Let me know your thoughts if anyone has advice painting Champagne Quartz. Do I have to blend whole front end?

Like many of you, I've owned numerous high-end cars in the standard silver, grey, black, etc. I can tell you I had the same feelings when I was about to buy my Alvite Grey M5. I can also tell you I have not regretted owning it for one second. I get tons of compliments on the color and have placed respectively in many car shows. Color is truly unique and actually changes appearance with lighting conditions due to its metallic properties. It will go from a copper/bronze/purple undertones to dark grey. Do it and don't look back!
