Carbon black vs. jet black

The order on my M5 is in, but I'm waffling about the color -- Jet Black (this
would be my 6th black car, so I know what I'm getting myself into!) or Cosmos
Black.
The Cosmos is an extremely dark blue metallic. At night, or from a distance,
it appears black. Up close, when brightly lit, it appears sapphire blue.
Anybody out there got the Cosmos? Whattayathink of it? I've heard it looks
dusty when clean -- is this so? Also, I've never had a car with metallic
paint -- how hard is it to care for? (Remember, my basis for comparison is
black!)
Thanks, everyone.
