Here's another picture taken earlier tonight.


Wout, I'll be more than happy to talk to you about my techniques. Send me your email address via PM and we can continue this offline. It was pretty easy, just a matter of using the right settings. And my old M5 had the BBS CH wheels, yes.

CSBM5, you could say that the spiritual successor of my old M5 came home for a visit. Yep!

I honestly think that Cobalt blue stands out WAY more than Midnight blue. I would change if I were you but then again I'm biased.

These pictures for the most part are an accurate representative of what Cobalt blue looks like:

Thanks for some amazing pictures.
The Cobalt color is the nicest color I have seen so for on a Turbo.

Cobalt is a little lighter than LeMans Blue, right?

Yes, Cobalt is slightly lighter and is a bit more blue. Lemans has a violet tint to it.
