E90 Colour

a3ndy · 03-27-2005, 11:18 AM

As you all know choosing the correct colour for your E90 is very important. Just wondering what colour you guys are going for or what colour you would go for if you were purchasing an E90?

I'd be interested to see what gets the top spot. Should have poll thread on here but I don't know how to do it or if it's possible..

Cheers

Im going with BLACK all the way

its really hard to take care of, but I dont care, because when its clean its just beautiful.

And yea a poll is a great idea, when you make a new post there is a check mark at the bottom where you can choose to include a poll into the thread

BMWAustin · 03-27-2005, 04:12 PM

SG with Beige and walnut wood.

LOL,

No. You may think that, but I'm just interested. I'm sticking with Titanium Silver. I can clearly see that SG is a firm favourite here.

Licoeur · 03-28-2005, 08:10 AM

Titanium Silver

bruindude · 03-29-2005, 09:46 PM

Where's the love for Monaco Blue? This color is beautiful.

At first i thuoght the monaco blue looked real good under auto show lamps, but now after seeing some pictures of it i think it looks dull. would have been nicer if they made it brighter and more metallic. see these pics it looks so dull

kchika · 04-02-2005, 01:40 PM

Sparkling Graphite hands down. I bet there's gonna be a lot of them on the streets very soon....elctric red and tiag are growing on me too

Mark · 04-02-2005, 01:52 PM

Yea, I agree with IoT. The blue looks like Orient blue on the e46, which was a beautiful color in the indoors under the lights of a dealership showroom, but on the road, its somewhat of a dull color. It needs more metallic character to it to make it stand out a bit more like benz has

schuyler · 04-03-2005, 03:11 PM

After seeing the Titanium Silver pics in the photo gallery, I'm now a fan.

You got SG right BMWAustin?

I have admit how beautiful a black BMW looks

. You just cannot go wrong with black. Especially when you get free car washes passes from your step dad. But if I was not getting black I would definitely get the SG.

With black either it's clean and completely gorgous or it's dirty and just disgusting. If I could wash my car easily and wasn't so lazy I'd get black.

Folks, I just picked up the price/option list for military sales here in Germany. I see that there are additional colors available in Sep05; Sonora, Deep Green, Barrique Red. Anyone know what these looks like?

I too picked up a preliminary price sheet last month and they gave me a US spec mini brochure and it shows the additional colors.
Sonora: looks like asang/gold metallic
Deep Green: needs no explination
Barrique Red: dark mauve metallic
The other Delayed color is Ultramarine Blue.

If you're close to the KMC area stop by the BMW car sales place near Volgweh, thats where I got my mini brochure

SCA · 04-08-2005, 12:52 PM

SG w/ Black 'ette.

BTW, I wish there was a better selection of exterior colors offered.

E90Fleet · 04-08-2005, 12:57 PM

This is UltraMarine ZBlue ( though I have heard from 2 sources its cancelled and replaced with Mystic Blue)

This is Sonora ( E90 and on a 1 Series )
