Grigio Telesto M50i

Ordered back at the end of August, got word that it arrived at the dealership. This is our 7th X5, and by these pictures sent by the dealer, we think it looks pretty good. Coming out of an Arctic Gray, this will be an interesting change. Should hide dirt a bit better too. Interior is coffee and CF. Hope to pick it up at some point this upcoming week (and get better pix).

Beautiful! This was a grey I considered as well when I decided to go with lime rock but hadn't seen either of them in person before. I'd definitely stalk this thing if I was local. Love it!

Beautiful color! Never understood why they black out all the trim except for the front kidney grille.

Thanks all, look forward to seeing it in person.

As for the grill, it is black, its got protective wrap on it, and glare.

I have a friend with an M3CS in LRP so will be able to compare.

And before anyone comments, yes, I'll deal with the amber side markers (cant stand them, Can think of 6 cars Ive painted them on)

Really like GT. Would love to see side by side with Dravit and Arctic grey to compare all the shades.

Congrats that looks great!

I would love to see LRG, Grigio and Dravit all together! They're all such dynamic colours!

I'm sure you'll enjoy seeing how your car changes daily in different lights, I know I certainly do with my Dravit!

Picked up today, not great lighting with the January setting sun.

Not a surprise at this point, but a relief to confirm... it has a touchscreen

I had that color on my F80. Doesn't photograph well but in person its a pretty color with the right amount of flakes.

It was also pretty resilient to showing paint chips because the base color under it was black.

different wheels and no shadow line, the rest is the same

Looks very similar to my LRG in this lighting

Was just thinking the same. Looks very similar but I believe Grigio is darker. Both colors look great on G05.

Based on my memory of a friends LRP gray M4CS (I have not seen it since the fall), GT is darker, but also GT does have a flake in it (which I did not think LRP had)

Grigio is definitely a little bit dark but in direct light looks a bit like LRG because LRG actually has the metallic flakes also. It just gets a bit lighter in that direct light but gives off a similar albeit slightly lighter hue.
