Colour options.

So I am seriously debating repainting the motor.

Paintwork is shagged on it. A polish will not sort it so not going to bother.

Back on the day when e36 m3s were king I really wanted one of two colours.

Dakar yellow

Techno violet.

I don't think Dakar will work on a z4 and I do love techno violet.

Anyone ever seen one in these colours?

I also have this dilemma, it's a tough decision to make!

I was gonna do down this route but decided it was pointless on a 3k z4.

It was either Atlantis blue or velvet blue for me, however would like to see techno.

Lots of colours I'd like to see. Loved techno violet, purple silk might be a modern alternative. I was always a fan of calypso red, I think the modern equivalent is vermilion red.

However, much like the CSL wheels that seem overdone, BMW have ruined the colour I would have gone for. Estoril blue. Loved an estoril M3 back in the days when it was practically the only car you could get it in. Now every 1 series through to 4 series seems to come in it

However, much like the CSL wheels, one day I might just do it anyway!

It won't cost me anything to do it bar the paint cost and my own time. I have full access to a body shop as my dad was in the trade for decades.. and many years of forced teenage Labour skilled me up.
I think techno would suit the car down to the ground.
I did think of Estoril but pretty much every bad manz in his leased 220d has it at the moment.

I was even considering chromaflair for the sake of it. Surprising how expensive that stuff is.

The old Alfa blue / gold pearl would look pretty good. .. But it's not techno. Purple is such a nice colour.

Another issue is doing this means the rotten 108s will have to go.

There’s always another M purple...Daytona Violet...

...or a colour that lots of people will assume is the common Estoril blue, Avus blue...

Alternatively go for one of the Standox Exclusive schemes like Rocket Red...

...or Catalunya Flash...

Rocket red is a really nice example.

The z though has a very grey dashboard. Not sure if reds will work with it. Purple and grey goes quite well vs purple and black.

About 5 years back one of the members did a complete respray in Mora Violet - it looked lovely!
