Yo, the Capri Blue is an awesome color. At different lighting, you can see the blue out of it, sometimes purpleish and at night black. When my brother was shopping for his 55, as we walked into the show room there it was. There was a Silver, Black and this Capri Blue available. Needless to say to which one ended up in our garage.
It's a Jay-Z Big Pimpin' color.

Thanks sillyent! I was about to PM you for the pics, thanks for coming through. I take it that you really enjoy the color? The one thing I'm worried about is "the black issue," meaning ten minutes after you wash it, it's dirty again.
Do you own the G55 too? I just sold mine, I couldn't handle the bumpy ride anymore. I've never had a car with such a rough suspension.

I had a choice either E55 silver or black until I saw the capri blue. It turns a lot heads when I'm cruising. In the dark, it looks black but in the sun is a completely blue/purplish color. The G55 is my cousin's ride, I swap it once in awhile when rollin' in the hood

Chill,
Is that Capri Blue? Wow! In that light, it does look black. I wholeheartedly concur with ItalianJob -- your car is nicely modded. No, in fact it's just plain SWEET.
What rims are those? Do you have tint on your windows? (If so, what percentage and brand) What color are your seats?
I'm dehydrated over here because I'm drooling so much. Tough to type!

The rims are HRE 547R's with the brushed clear coat centers with centers drilled larger for MB centercaps. The grille is Lorinser and the spoiler is Renntech. The tint is the darkest legally allowed on front windows and is a premium grade. I don't remember the brand or percentage.
I hardly get to drive it anymore since it is now Mrs. Chill's car. My Vette will have somewhere around 530 hp after heads/cam/headers/tuning this weekend.

Bought the grille from Ben at Evosport. It looked like this when I unpacked it. Despite looking black in the picture, the Star is actually chrome.
