....I hate you so much. I was looking for the specific color name, I got the bmw color options for E39s but can't figure out if it's anthracite, or steel blue, etc.

Last one actually made me laugh pretty hard.

I'm just gonna call the dealer and see if I can get a VIN....or if he can look up the plate to find the color code. Will advise once we finally solve this mystery. Team NOROTORS....AWWWAAAAY!
