Ha, yeah have actually thought about doing that, but just the small matter of spending £5k+ and then having a car worth less afterwards..! :rofl:
 
Only ever wanted Alpine White. Although white and black are not technically colours at all. So I guess it rules them out.
 
Roadster, Silver Grey, funnily enough. The way it reflects the sky off the bonnet is just perfect IMHO :D :thumbsup:

If it where a coupe then a darker metallic, Sepang has long been my favourite, but that dark red is cracking. :thumbsup:

That red is very nice indeed. So nice in fact, I think you've made me question my current dream colour which is techno violet.

I always loved estoril blue too, but it's such a common colour now that I don't feel it's special any more.
 
Have to agree with Angelus - that would look superb....but there again having seen Jembo's & Joneeboy's S.B.'s at the Rye meet last year - they looked really stunning ...but i keep going to the garage to look at the A.W. MC i bought before Christmas and just look at it - it too looks an absolute beauty......i really can't decide...too difficult a question for a Monday morning...
 
I love interlagos blue (had an m3 cs before in it and looked for a Z in the same), however I am considering repainting the car, and I am very much considering spending quite a bit more for a colour change to Oxford Green :tumbleweed:
I love it and think it would look pretty great on the Z. Maybe one day...

Are you sure about those photos? They look like they've had very heavy post-production to me.

I've had several BMWs in Oxford Green and it looked not much like any of those colours in the photos. It looked smart enough on 5-Series Tourings (E34 and E39s). Sort of a country pheasant shoot look. :lol: I had it on an E38 740i with a tan interior and it just about worked for me. I've seen it in reality on an E46 M3 and it didn't appeal and I'm not so sure about it working on a Z4. All of those examples above do look good...but I don't think their imagines in the photos are truly Oxford Green.

I'd agree the 1st looks heavily processed.
I quite like the low key paint colour look on a car like this (I guess that's why I like the blue), but yes maybe it wouldn't work. Thanks for talking me out of it :)
I do like a nice green though
:scratchhead:
