Its got no more pizzazz than my Carbon Black 4. EB was a much louder colour. Not changing my order from PB, just saying that I don't see it as a look at me colour.
Well....to come clean on this, I think some blues I've seen on other BMWs have not been PB. Some of the pics of PB X3s have looked very strong but this may just be the photos. Now that I have the paper catalogue I see that PB could be be quite dark. It's a trip to the dealer tomorrow for me to search out some more PB.

Is this realistic, or is the bright sunshine?
