Think BMW used to call that color diamant schwarze (diamond black) We had a 325ix that color and it was perfect...when it was clean it looked dirty and when it was dirty looked clean.

I've got pics in my gallery. I'm told this color is midnight black metallic A94. Bought my 2010 Rally Edition in Nov, and checked again today and my dealer still can't seem to order this in his computer...anyone else having any trouble getting touch-up paint in this color?
