What colour is SOPHISTOGRAU BRILLANTEFFEKT METALLI (A90)?
This is the color of a used 540 I'm looking at, according to the build list. But I can't find this color in the BMW online builder. Is it dark graphite metallic?

Again, use Google and search "sophisto grey" and your screen will flow for hours with 209,000 images and info. I'm not pasting them here....you got to do some work too.

Ksoze is right. I believe it's Sophisto grey which is also Dark Graphite Metallic which should be on the configurator.
I recall reading somewhere that SOPHISTOGRAU BRILLANTEFFEKT METALLI is the German name for Dark Graphite Metallic.

To be clear, a Google search also provided the various names that color uses, not just color samples. Glad you found your answer.

It is the Dark Graphite.
My F10 is this color, and on the placard under the hood it has the German name which, as mentioned by clabro, is Sophistograu Briilanteffekt |
