Looks very nice The same colour combo we had chosen when we ordered originally in mid March, but changed to Oyster Leather at the end of March “to get it quicker” hmm!

I've ordered Phytonic with Oyster and Rhombicle, plus it'll be my first EV.

Nice photos and I'm not usually a fan of white.

Maybe it's my bias, but you can really notice how the iX3 is lower than the X3. Looks a bit sportier.

Seen a few now in the colours available, I always think in white it looks a little lower, and the wheels look to fill the arches more, not sure why that is though.

Lovely colour Phytonic Blue, so glad it's what I'm getting and to think I only took it as the wait for grey was longer!

Same here - ordered PB as it's the best colour - would have loved Dravit but no individual choices available.

It is a lovely colour and much nicer 'in hand' so to speak, rather than seeing in photographs.

It is going in for a complete stage 1 machine polish and ceramic treatment next week as it did arrive with a few areas that looked like they had tried to get some mild scratches or marks out but rubbing it continuously with a piece of wire wool

As nice as Phytonic is though, I love seeing it on mornings like today where the whole car is covered in a light layer of dew.....it completely removes the metallic look and makes it look like it is the frozen matt blue colour instead. I need to try and get a photo next time it's like it as it has already cleared now.

Car has been in for a full stage 1 machine polish and ceramic coating. The paintwork was not terrible but it certainly wasn't perfect when delivered....there were a couple of areas on the nearside rear door and nearside front bonnet that looked like someone had taking some sandpaper to it to try and get rid of some fine scratches

It's looking fantastic now...plus it's making me even more pleased we went with Phytonic blue in the end.

I changed my order to Carbon Black, away from Phytonic.

PB seems to be a common colour in general for BMWs here, plus when I compared PB to my current Tanzanite X5, I preferred the darker look of TB (which Carbon Black is closer to) than the brighter blue of Phytonic.

I've not a had black-ish car for years so not having a blue is also a change

Our X5 was Carbon Black and it looked fantastic when it was really clean. We were originally going for white with the iX3 but then saw a Phytonic blue one and loved it so changed our mind.
