I think white!


Many years ago, my brother got himself a white Bimeer. It was a stunner!
Ever since I've sort of liked/Hated the white color.

But on this car, it rocks!

You are forgetting Avus Blue and Le Mans Blue.

White looks terrible most of the time. On a clear hot day, a clean, white car can look good. The rest of the time, it just looks dull.

Cool is such a subjective term, but other interesting BMW colours include Carbon Black (great when clean), Phoenix Yellow (amazing when dusk) and Laguna Seca Blue (the original smurf blue)

depends on the model, silver works well, but has become dull over time. White is good, most //M racing cars were white with red and blue stripes. E39 M5 doesn't look too crash hot in white though, looks fantastic in the blues and blacks though.

Red doesn't work that well on most BMWs, E28 and E34 can almost get away with it though

I'd have to vote for Cosmos Black Metallic too. But then I am biased........it is a sod to keep clean though.

Yes and No really, in the summer when it's all waxed up black is such a good colour.
But in the winter you see all the mud/dirt really easly.

Still a lovely colour IMO

A 325 Sport in Dolphin Grey or Lachs Silver always did it for me.

e34 in black (like mine), although only looks good for about 10 mins after clean ing, then its dirty again, and as already mentioned, 325 e30 in dolphin grey. that looks superb. white? nope, unless its an early espirit...

Having owned E46 3 Series n Imola Red (330Ci), Titanium Silver (M3 manual), Avus Blue (M3 SMG) and Sapphire Black (M3 CSL), I feel well qualified in declaring Avus Blue to be Top Colour (CSL is top car though - surprisingly enough, not!).
