Brown.
Sorry to be in a minority of one, but a brown car????
I had a Havana Brown E89 and loved the colour. I sold to my mate who still has it to this day.

The sepang is the roadster. This has sepang interior too

You’re having a giraffe, brown car, it’s called bronze for good reason, it’s like stating gold is yellow :poke:

OP Good luck and great choice, Sepang is one of the top three colours for an e85/86, wish they’d do it for the g29
What are the top 3 colours? i'm intrigued!

Presume you meant top 3 most popular colours, not people's favourites? No idea. But one wasn't Sepang brown now was it?

I can't help but laugh when I see cars advertised for sale as 'rare colour'. Unless it was a limited edition colour it was unpopular, the only reason it is/was rare.

That Havana Brown on the E89 is very very 'rare', for good reason. :poke:

I must admit the only Sepang I've seen (in pictures) is Shaun's and it looks stunning. Probably more to do with the fact it's very shiny and he takes a good picture than anything else. I think of Allegros, Rover P6s and Austin Princesses when it comes to brown cars. Maybe many others did too which is maybe why they haven't been very popular in the last 30 years.

I did see a Merlot E85 the other day; that was quite funky!
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

They resurrected Phoenix yellow for the M3 and M4. I have a mate who has one; looks like baby sick IMHO! :P :poke:

I know what you mean, but Carbon Schwartz is a fantastic colour when the suns out, hands down better than the other two blacks.

Ruby Black looks great in the sun as well, but as I found out it's also hard work to keep clean!

My preferences would be Imola Red, Interlagos Blue and Phoenix Yellow in that order- I like a bit of colour. :)
Coupes because stunning!
Current - Silver Grey MC, Imola Red heated Nappa & carbon trim. Aeros, H & R Coil-overs, 224s, OE Strut brace, Nav, cup-holders, DSP Hi-Fi, pdc, cruise, MFSW, no CDV! E90 330i daily
Gone - Montego Blue
Gone - Ruby Black
