From my knowledge Alvite Grey is exact same color as Champagne Quartz, just a new name for it.

Always was a fan of Champagne Quartz

I was going to say it reminds me of champagne quartz. Awesome color on M5.

love it

I saw this color recently on an M5 here in Miami and thought it suited the lines of the car exceptionally well. It is one of those colors where pictures simply don't capture the true essence of the color.

My current M5C is SG which is also very difficult to capture well given the many purple and green hues.

Enjoy in good health brother!!

What colour is SG? Curious as I am awaiting a build slot on an SG too - Signal Green.

great combo

I was referring to Singapore Grey.

It’s crazy how the paint actually changes so dramatically with the weather. It always seems like I’m walking up to a different car, I love it!

That’s a beautiful color, I’d love to see them side by side!

I believe so... Not sure why BMW changed the name for the F90LCI

You bet, as soon as it gets back from PPF and CC I’m planning on spamming this thread with pictures!

It is, no idea why the name change but I had to order touch up paint and the code still pulls up CQ

Absolutely beautiful M5 in Alvite (champagne quartz metallic)!

Get some nice shots in full sun that truly capture the dynamic nature of this color.

I fell in love with the color online, sight unseen and special ordered my F31 in Champagne Quartz Metallic. Nothing like it!

Same colour, I wanted to order it as individual and couldn’t. BMW contacted my dealer to inform them that it is the same paint code. Nice cost saving!

Maybe the arches on the M3 capture the light better… or maybe it was just better light in that picture!

one is in the sun and one is in the shade. I like them both, especially with the CCB.

Man, the gold calipers really compliment the champagne hues, shouldn’t have skipped those

From some quick research, Alvite Grey is not exactly the same as Champagne Quartz Metallic. Supposedly BMW reformulated it to be darker, hence the new name and paint code.

Ah interesting, I thought maybe it was just PPF film that was the reason mine never got quite as bronze as others but I guess now I know!

I've been lurking this forum for a long time but finally created an account and thought I'd show you guys my first M5 competition.

The car is getting PPF'd and ceramic coated as we speak so these awful pictures will have to do in the mean time.

All the options except CCB, and sadly no MPE.

Really thought I would hate the color, but it is something you absolutely can't judge without seeing in person. It's not brown like it shows in photos, it goes from a beautiful dark purple/grey to a slight bronze in direct sunlight. I wanted to find a problem with it, but I love it, and everybody at the dealership said they were obsessed it it.

Like a dumbass, I hit an unmarked gravel road during my break in period and chipped the hell out of the rockers and a couple nicks on the door that have to be fixed while they install the PPF

I'll post better pictures once the car is back from CC and PPF but I couldn't wait that long to make a post!

The first two photos are at the actual prison where they filled The Shawshank Redemption, thought that was kind of cool.

What is PPF
