Which is the COOLEST colour on a z4m

red or that bronze colour... I like unusual colours..

silver and blue show a lack of imagination. IMHO.

Ast MD/owner mark is a long time customer of mine, top bloke & very good at his work, me personally though I wouldn't have one. AST did all my businesses vinyl work & it's second to none, but I've also got a childhood mate based in Carlisle who wrapped the entire front end of my r26.r in clear for protection on trackdays. Again the work was top notch but it never polished up as nice as real paint. Got to say though, in well over 100+ laps of the ring (and other trackdays as well) not once did a stone go through to mark the paint.
I'd only do a vinyl wrap if I wanted a one off colour but didn't want a respray, say like lime gren or orange that wasn't available as a factory option on the car.

Interestingly on a grey/silver car you could put a clear matte/satin wrap on & create bmw's frozen grey-very cool!



Back on topic I honestly think the lines of the Z4 suit silver or black the best, strange as I've vowed never to own either colour again in my life!

The Mini and the X5 are pretty cool, really well done. My mate works at AST and showed me around both of the cars but they do end up breaking quite a few of the snap fittings because they are hard to get off. Getting my roof done in 3M CF in the next couple of months at AST, when the weather gets better. They are a top company, and have quite a few locations around Britain.

BTW can't believe you got rid of that gorgeous Porsche!! Look like such perfection to detail in its restoration!

I've been lucky enough to own some stunning machines over the years & yep the porche was air cooled perfection, but I think it just came at the wrong time. To be honesr I got it at a seriously cheap price & knew I could make a few bob on it.

I'll go back to the air cooled stuff in the future but for now an ///M car will do just fine, if I had the money there's quite a few in my back catalogue I'd never have sold but I don't think the neighbours (or the wife to be) would appreciate a jay Leno style garage round the back of the house!

Cheers mate, I've been very lucky with my cars over the years but seeing as I'm hijacking the thread a bit I'll wait until I pick my car out before putting it all in a post on here :)

lol. "Mine's best", "no mine's best". :poke: :)

I'll not post a picture of my own car, but say the coolest colour is one of the bright ones :- Imola red, z4spurs' orange RAC-style Z4MR or I actually quite like the Pheonix yellow. Apart from that lot, then I'm afraid I'll renage on what I said - black is coolest. It's timeless. That makes mine the coolest colour (despite not being an ///M)
 
I would really like to see the white ///M roadster.

I say THE white Z4 ///M roadster, as there was only one registered in the UK. If only I could find the owner and persuade him/her to sell ;)

I must say, that's a very nice looking roadster! :thumbsup:

Interlagos is sexy but it's hard to photograph it like it looks in real life. This is a good pic.

Thanks for the compliments :thumbsup: :D .
It is very hard to get the full effect of the colour as some times it appears very dark,but really comes alive in the sunshine.
I have tried all sorts of waxes on the car and have finally settled on Swissvax best of show a bit on the pricey side but gives the paint a really deep shine.
 
Has to be the coolest colour even if not the most popular at the time it was offered. Wish I hadn't sold the car, as finding another in this colour is proving impossible...

On a murky muddy winters day give me Imola Red, however. We had friends down at the week end. Drove the mates missus out to the local breakfast haunt on Saturday morning. Parked up in glorious crisp Cornish winter sunshine. Hopped out and the Z looked fantastic sitting there comfortable, in the green and pleasant landscape, accepting admiring glances and comments form passers by. That day Silver Grey was the best possible colour for any Z.
