I was torn with AW or IB...I went with IB. I've had it for 2 years and I love it.....buttttttt......if I ever seen a aw on fox red interior with blacked out accents, I think I should have gone with aw. Go with your initial gut.....I've told my wife to not let me talk myself out of a white car next time....

I was torn between AW, IB and LMB ... but in the end I decided on AW/Black (my second choice was LMB/Beige)

In no particular order. Kinda hard to choose your favorite child. If I absolutely had to, the Silver Gray on my old e46 wins. N/A for the e9x though. Space Gray, Jerez and SSII...I also really like Lemans Blue and...well, any color.

Love this thread and all the Pics. Interlagos Blue is my favorite but AW is killer as well. Melbourne Red is worth a look. There really are no bad e9x colors.

I've been looking into other colors and starting to like other colors such as Jerez Black, Interlagos Blue, and Space Grey. Just curious, what is everyone's favorite M3 color?
I'm of course partial to Barbera Red. But mine is the only E90 in this color.

It's easier to see the details in white. You can't always see the curves in black. Also the white ones look cleaner when they are dirty. The black ones sometimes look dirty even when they are clean.

Can't say I notice a difference between AW and MW. MW cost $1000 more and came out in 2011+ so it's more rare.

Surprised there is not a lot of love for LeMans Blue on this thread.
IMO Alpine White looks good, but also so overused. SOOO many cars (M and non M alike) have AW.
Go bold, get LMB, or IB, or MR.

As far as those Individual colors go, too hard to find used.

If I didn't want fox red so much I would have gone interlagos blue.

Le Mans Blue is definitely my favorite, but Mineral White is a close second.

All I can say is wow.....
I'm having a hard time between the AW, MCB, and IB. Something about that blue just catches my eye. I just love white cars with carbon fiber accents, but my mind might be changing
