What color is the best of best you think?

For an E85\6 has to be a metallic, shows of the flame surfacing so much better than any of the flat colours. IMHO :thumbsup:

Other that the many silver greys, :thumbsup: I personally like Sepang Bronze. :? But as so few were ordered in that spec. I would have to assume, despite discussion here, that most general car buyers don't like it. :o
 
Sepang Bronze or Stratus Grey for me. If I knew what I know now about the colour of Zeds when I bought mine I would of held out for Stratus Grey.

Quite a fan of Maldives Blue and Merlot in the pre-facelift versions.
 
are you thinking a full respray, or a wrap? are you thinking of keeping to factory BMW colours, or are you really open to anything?

what colour is your interior, to prevent any horrible clashes!
 
What's that latest metallic cherry red colour that the new MX5s come in?
I think that would look nice.

Edit: Think it may be 'Soul Red'.
 
Azurite Black. My X6 is this colour and it looks amazing in the sun.
Its very close looking to Carbon Black.
 
Have a look through the special paints on here then do a bit of googling to see them in a more realistic way. You might find something you hadn’t thought of.

I think I’d go for something with a pearl effect to really show off the surfacing - Alvite Grey or Champagne Quartz would look great.

I’m also a sucker for purple/berry coloured cars so any one of the BMW/Audi shades would work for me.
 
Of the colours offered by BMW my favourite for a pre-facelift was Merlot, and Montego Blue for a facelift.

But if I was changing the colour anyway I'd be tempted to go for something unique, like Valencia Orange or maybe Misano Blue!

Sepang Bronze is just gorgeous, can you imagine an e89 in that colour

I posted this a while back in response to another thread but for me Havana is pretty close and would’ve been one of my choices but the OH doesn’t like Havana at all :thumbsdown:

I would go with an individual colour but not certain which one:

Sao Paulo yellow
Motegi red
Aventurine red II
Snapper rocks blue

Far too many colours to choose from in all honesty.
 
Montego Blue or Sterling Grey are my favourites, both show the flame surfacing well.

They’re pretty close in colour, I’m not a lover of the e86 but in Sepang it’s gorgeous :thumbsup:

I'm the complete opposite! I love E86s but am really not a fan of Sepang. :lol:
