Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Here we have 3 Individual colours presented on the X5M Competition which I do not think we have seen before.

First up, Gentian Blue.

Thanks for sharing! Always enjoy seeing all the custom colors. And always wanted to see one in Gentian Blue.

Carpe_BM · 01-19-2023, 10:06 AM

Green one is WOW

bmwauug · 01-19-2023, 11:54 AM

always loved LeMans

Blue87 · 01-19-2023, 01:27 PM

The blues look very nice. I have TZII now and would most likely go with gentian.

Here’s Oxford Green - it’s Getting paint corrected now - will share once complete

arRod1981 · 01-24-2023, 09:25 AM

Don't have an X5M, but do have a 45e in Java Green, and would love to see one in Signal Green.

BMWbab1 · 01-24-2023, 09:33 AM

Beautiful. The green is stunning. Any chance you have any pics of them with natural light (outdoors)? If so would love to see those!

Westside Guy · 01-24-2023, 09:35 AM

I think that Le Mans Blue is the perfect color for the X5M Competition.

BMW has many better blue shades than Gentian Blue.

I am not a green lover but Verde Ermes will definitely attract customers that like green shades.

I agree and would love to see some pictures taken outdoors on a sunny day. This green shade will definitely pop in a brighter setting!

Verde Ermes 🤤

This is a GREAT color for an SUV. Even one that doesn't know it's an SUV. Love Verde Ermes, but something doesn't look right to me with it being on the X5. But this Oxford looks perfect.

**Although, looking at that Verdes again.... It is stunning. Would be hard to choose.

Agreed. The Le Mans Blue is very fitting for the shape of the X5 in my opinion.

Seen X5M in Oxford Green with matte gold rims. It looks stunning.

Purekoryo · 01-24-2023, 11:13 AM

Wish there was a Frozen Verde Ermes on the new M3 CS. Would look so badass with gold wheels.

How much paint correction do you need on a new BMW?

I have a friend that owns a body shop and he does ground up restorations along with collision work. He says paint correction on new German cars isn't a "must do" unless there is something drastic and if it's that bad the dealer should be looking at it.

Come to mama...!

GTS Daddy · 01-24-2023, 11:48 AM

The BMW LeMans blue looks more like Porsche's Gentian Blue than BMW's Gentian Blue.

chicagofan00 · 01-24-2023, 12:35 PM

All three look great!

idk, the Gentian looks like proof it's time for the LCI to me... maybe it's just those pictures making the car look so flat and pointing out how cheap the black mesh looks... just not aggressive enough for me.

Alan l. · 01-24-2023, 12:55 PM

Gentian does not look good at all. Lemans is nice but not nearly as nice as Marina Bay without any up charge.

Verde Ermes is stunning.
