Artic is an OK color, but I wouldn't order it again. Sparkling G is not much better - too dark and too purple.... and Silverstone is too light for my taste. So, at this point, if I ordered the E90 M3, I don't know what my color choice would be. I prefer medium colors - and pure and classic medium silvers like Space Grey. But, no matter how great the M3 is, I will not buy if I cannot settle on a suitable color choice. I won't make the same mistake as I made when I bought my 330i. Color is too important to me. Space grey would have done it - but now, who knows..... I might be forced to look elsewhere.
I'd say you were a prime candidate for AW now.
