That will be great to see!

Funnily enough, I was in Cape Town a couple of weeks ago and had been thinking how good the Alpine White 3ers looked in SA!

Did you find out what colour that actually is?

it's likely this color is Diopside Black, a BMW individual color. you can see the color on bmw's website here:

I have seen it IRL, I wouldn`t reccomend it......................

Off course Jerez Black is an exclusive color to the M3 only, so the picture above can not be Jerez, it is a 335i..............

Exactly. How Johnny Favourite can say Jerez Black is awful when he hasn't even seen it I don't know. Surely he doesn't think the pictures are Jerez Black?

[FifthStreetz]

that color on the 335 coupe cannot be Jerez black, Jerez black is a M3 exclusive color. It would be kinda crazy for a 335 to have a special color designed for the upcoming M before the M3 debuts.

Any wine drinkers in here? This may hold hints of the colors hue, or at least the origin of the paint color name. When you run "Jerez" thorugh any online translator, Spanish to English, it means "Sherry". The mystery deepens

I'm hoping everyone is getting Jerez Black or any other real color (gray, red, blue), so I could be the only one driving a Alpine White!!

(I kinda like the Jerez Black too, but my E36 & E46 were black, so, not black again this time around!)

good try, but jerez is a formula one circuit: http://www.circuitodejerez.com/en/home.htm

ditto silverstone: http://www.silverstone.co.uk/php/home.php

etc.
