I'm new to this search for an M5, and I have a question.

I saw a nice Carbon Black 2003 with only 17,xxx miles yesterday. The question is, why does carbon black look like really dark blue? I want a black one, but I may settle for this carbon black b/c the miles are so low.

Think of carbon paper. Is it black? Is it blue? Hard to say, it depends on the light.

What color is the interior. The nicest M5 I ever saw was Carbon Black/Caramel. Looked stunning.

CB is a quintessential M color, whereas you can get JB on any garden variety Bimmer. Yeah, JB when clean (which is seldom) ROCKS, but IMO if you're going M, why not get an M color? :dunno:
