The Phoenix yellow is relatively rare and I’d love to know is that because it was an individual colour or just simply because people didn’t particularly like the colour which then led to not that many being sold. Maybe someone in the forum could shed light on why there’s not that many around. I also loved the M3 in Phoenix yellow but at the time of trying to buy one there were none available, probably because I’m too fussy! Bought an M5 instead back then which I recently sold to find the PY Z4. I’ve also got a 535d but since driving the Z4 on a very regular basis the 535d appears to handle like a boat in comparison to the wee PY baby.
Its an individual colour. I have a phoenix yellow e92 3 series and it says on the vin decoder it's a special order indivdual

Thank you for your comments. It really is a beautiful wee car in pristine condition. My problem is it will want for nothing so no early retirement for me.
The weather forecasters phoned me personally yesterday and told me to keep the roof down for next few weeks at least 😂. That said it’s sometimes more pleasant to keep the roof up and the air con full up. It holds the road like glue so it’s great seeing a roundabout ahead. All it needs is a limited slip diff so that’s something I’ll need to look into. Anyone on the forum here have any recommendations?
