My Carbon Blk 3.5i M Sport and S1000RR pics

Just to add to the copious amounts of car porn on the site.... here are some pics I took of my new 2012 X3 M Sport, Carbon Black, Black Nevada, and Alu trim and some with my bike too. Sorry if some of the pics are a bit dark or blurry....not very good with a camera

Looks fantastic
I have a carbon black X3 on order. It should arrive in about 3 weeks.
Although I only ordered it just before Christmas, I'd forgotten what a great colour the CB is...
Thanks for the pics

Looks great! Sure would be mean looking with blacked out kidneys and darker wheels!

I see you use the right compartment in the trunk for bags also, nice touch

I have the exact same color combo and options list as yours. My previous car was a 2000 M5 in Carbon Black and I loved the color so I opted for the same thing on the X3.

Very nice pictures... The most comprehensive I've seen.

I notice that your car came with the gloss black dash inlay like the 2013 models.

P.s. You forgot to take pics of the headline and moonroof.

Nice ..never saw these pics till today..in a lot of the pictures it looks black but I have to agree that it's more of a "midnight/majestic blue" in real life.

The gloss trim debuted on the 2012s.

Didn't know headliner and moonroof pics are a requisite...

Not a requisite but a request.

The M-sport comes with an anthracite roof liner and I was curious how it looked with the dark seats since my car is due in the next week with the same interior colour combination.

I was concerned about the interior looking too dark.

I noticed in the pictures above that the 'A' pillars appear to the standard grey colour and not anthracite.

Thanks for putting these up. Have just ordered the same combo and was a bit worried it may be too dark, but this looks great. I saw three X3s on one trip last week (unusual!), one in Silver which I didn't like at all, one on White - which I must say looked great - and another in CB, but it was coming toward me and only had a fleeting glance, but looked spot on.

Was also debating the Oyster interior which seems to be a popular choice, but decided against due to having 2 & 4 year old kids. It also looks a bit too "well dressed" for my taste, almost like wearing a tux - if that makes sense.
