Thoughts on Manhattan Green Metallic X7?

I’ve been eyeing the Manhattan Green Metallic color for the BMW X7, and I’m curious to hear about everyone’s experiences with it. Is it really as stunning in person as it looks in pictures?

Here are some points I’m particularly interested in:

  • Availability: Is this color option available at most dealerships?
  • Pricing: Does it come at a premium compared to other colors?
  • Owner Opinions: For those who own an X7 in this color, how has the feedback been regarding upkeep and visual appeal?
  • Practical Considerations: Does the color hide dirt and scratches well, or does it show wear and tear easily?

I’m thinking about making a purchase decision soon, so hearing your insights would be super helpful!

I’ve had my X7 in Manhattan Green Metallic for about six months now. The color really pops in sunlight, showing off a deeper green. It’s stunning!

I’ve noticed that too! It looks almost different at night, more understated but still classy.

I agree with you both! In overcast weather, it has a more muted tone but still looks elegant. It’s pretty versatile.

I really love the color, but how does it compare to more traditional colors like silver or black? Anyone else feel like it’s a statement piece?

Absolutely! When I park next to other cars, mine always stands out. I feel proud driving it around!

The aesthetic appeal is on point! I’m still amazed at how the color changes with the time of day. It keeps it interesting.

Great observation! I forgot to mention, it can look almost teal at times, especially in bright lights!

[@michele23]It does attract dust, but I find that it’s easy to clean off. A quick wash and it looks brand new again!

I’ve had quite the experience! Parked outside last winter, and I didn’t notice any major damage from the snow. A solid paint job, for sure.

What about maintenance? Does it show dirt easily? I love the look but don’t want to spend all my time washing it.

Totally! Just make sure to get a ceramic coating if you want extra protection!

Sounds like a lot of love here for Manhattan Green! I feel like it’s a conversation starter everywhere I go.

[@todd51] So true! I’ve heard people compliment it all the time! I maybe should charge for all the ‘free advertising’ I get! :joy:

I’ve seen the Manhattan Green Metallic in person, and it’s stunning! It’s unique among the X7 color options, giving it a sporty yet luxurious feel. Definitely turns heads on the road.

I totally agree with you, George! I was going to choose a classic color, but Manhattan Green really stands out from the rest. How has it affected your resale value?

I think the Manhattan Green is great, but I feel like colors like Alpine White or Black Sapphire are safer options for resale. Anyone else worried about how unique colors affect resale values?

While those colors are indeed safer, I’ve found that unique colors bring a niche buyer who appreciates the distinctiveness. It might not sell quickly, but it can fetch a good price if marketed right!

As a current X7 owner, I can tell you that Manhattan Green has sparked a lot of conversation among my friends. It’s definitely a conversation starter! No regrets here.
