Nate:

Is there any chance you save color samples when you do something like this, for future reference? I would love to have these done when the portfolio is complete!

Congrats.
if I ever consider that color, I have to see it in person.

bavarian19 · 08-13-2009, 03:17 PM

I did not see that second set of pictures. That seems like such an amazing color. So many vibrant hues to it!!!

shaggag · 08-22-2009, 06:25 PM

OH MAN! now thats a project to get excited about - cant wait to see more pics. Any chance of releasing details on what will be done to the car (Nate or OP)?

I'd like to introduce my new project E90 M3. The color is Atlantis metallic and it is absolutely stunning in person; I couldn't be happier. I haven't taken official delivery yet, but today I went up to the dealer to take a couple of pre-delivery shots:

I'll post a few more after I take delivery this Thurs/Fri. Final project should be completed by summer's end, so stay tuned...

Opinions are wonderful things, yes?

I think Atlantis is better

MyKmYk · 08-22-2009, 08:11 PM

Somehow the title of this thread was changed without my input....? Is that possible?

Just an FYi: the color of the car is not Atlantis blue. It is Atlantis metallic, plain and simple. Just like on my purple e46, which is called Mora metallic and not Mora purple or Mora violet.

Mods: can you correct this?

Sorry, but a little pet peeve of mine!

Green///Hell · 08-22-2009, 08:40 PM

Saw it in person today. Its a lot nicer in person
Nice choice I think it looks awesome

What was the title originally? This is the one I remember from way back when there were only three pages. And I think we call it Atlantis Blue because that's what is listed under the Individual Color Picture thread. It needs to be changed if it is incorrect.

Sick shot!!

The title was the exact same, minus the blue. And you are right, the Individual thread is incorrect and should be corrected.

Wow...the first color I've seen that makes the $5K price tag worth it. That's a BEAUTIFUL color. Wonder if the wife will go for it or make me drop M-DCT and navi. Hmmm....

Excellent choice.

I prefer the alternate Atlantic Blue metallic color instead (just wish it was an M3 color option):
