Anyone on here own it?

Is it actually painted Matt Black or has it been wrapped?

Wrap...be mad to paint it IMO; looks good at the moment but will soon be out of fashion!

Matt Grey (Or Frozen Grey as BMW call it) will be the one for 2010/2011 I think

The ad says its Alpine White underneath the wrap.

Had a wander into BMW Park Lane during lunch last week and they had a 320d Coupe with big wheels in Matt Black and an M5 saloon in Matt Grey.

The M5 looked good but the 320d was just the wrong car for this treatment.

I regularly see five or six Matt Black cars near the office (599GTB, M3 Coupe, 650i, SL55AMG, Rolls Royce Phantom). Mostly they look cool but I often wonder how difficult to keep clean and what they would look like in a few years time.

Me no likey...

looks like it needs a wash.

are those standard 19s painted centres? That I do like, would look better on JB.

I think it looks awful personally. I have seen a couple of matt black cars that look good, one was an F430 and the other was an SLR but generally I'm not a fan at all.

Yup, and you can see from one of the interior photos it's not had the door shuts done, they are still white...which you will see every time you get into it.

Not for me personally
