Couldn't catch up to wave or look for other details, as driver was, umm, going a little fast. I was going 70+ but I don't like to get ahead of traffic flow. One thing I noticed - it's important to keep the darker color cars clean. The other Midnight Blue X1 was a little dirty and didn't look great, at least from what I saw.
I suppose if you have one of the more popular color X1s you've seen your share of "doubles." Took over a year for me to see my first!

I bought mine in April 2012 and although it was initially rare to see other X1 on the road, now I see about one or two other X1 on my daily commute to work. Here up north, most popular colors seems to be (in order) silver, white, black, grey and brown... "Glacier Silver" being (seemingly) the most X1's popular color is a bit surprising because most of the 3 Series cars are black(!). As for mine, I obviously have seen few "doubles", however what strike me is that not all of them have the Xenon lights... Xenon
really does change the look!
