I will miss the Carbon Black and I am dissappointed that I will not have an M package, but I can't change the timing. What is really the best part, I am taking my 15yo son with me to Germany, his first time, we will be there for 3 weeks. My itinerary will take us from Munich to Austria, Switzerland, Black Forrest, to the North Sea, Berlin and then to a small village in the Rhineland just west of Frankfurt before dropping the car off in Frankfurt. This is my 3rd Euro Del, but first time at the WELT. ED Calendar updated

Congratulations! The car and the vacation both sound awesome. 3 weeks in Europe is heavenly.

They don't offer black as exterior color anymore?

You mean the Jet Black? Not sure, but I know that they offer Black Sapphire Metallic. My new favorite dark color is easily the Sophisto Grey (Dark Graphite Metallic in the US code A90). Gorgeous color and your car sounds like it will be a lot of fun, enjoy and GL!!!

kenham talks about carbon black. What is carbon black?

Carbon black is an exclusive color for the M Sport line. Think of a mignight blue but darker, and during the day when the sun hits it just right, it had blueish purple hues to it. Its a gorgeous color.

Carbon Black is/was offered on the M sport, it is like having a dark blue and a black car all in one. Very cool color.
