What color is this 2009 328 xi

Vut · 05-23-2014, 01:16 PM

Hi All,

Could you help me confirm that the color of this car is Montego Blue Metallic, code A51.

I checked the engine bay and door sticker and can't locate an OEM sticker with the color code.

Thanks

Looks like a Lemans blue to me... but I could be wrong!

Run the VIN in vindecoder - should give you the colour..http://www.vindecoder.net/car-brand-manufacturer/bmw

Thanks for the advice Thrakos. I did as you suggested, but it didn't provide me a color or color code.

Thanks all, that second VIN checker did the trick. And the answer is...Montegoblau Metallic (A51)

I'm sure you know how close montego and Le Mans look in pictures. For future reference, Le Mans was only available when the M sport option was chosen.
