I actually have both Space Gray and Mineral Gray cars - the 128i Convertible in Space Gray, the F30 335i Sedan in Mineral Gray. Both cars are M-Sport models, and they limit the color choices for that option. The Mineral Gray on the 335i is deeper than my previous 07 E92 in Sparkling Graphite, in that it doesn't have the purple hue in the sun and is a good bit darker - but Mineral Gray seems to have more of a silver sparkle in the sun.

Sir, both of those cars are FANTASTIC looking vehicles. I may be a bit partial to Mineral Grey, and I agree that it has far more of a silver hue than blue or brown.

Thanks - appreciate the compliment. I would have preferred a gray leather interior for the F30 M-Sport, but that wasn't available like it was for the 128i. Red does seem to work with MG, though.

Me too, though of course I'm biased. Yet, I still have no idea why this thread was unearthed after 9 months by that guy. =P
