Probably won't get a black exterior.
After seeing some of these Space Gray pics for the first time, I must say they are nice. I absolutely loved the way the concept looked. With some tinted windows, the space gray just might do it. Was also looking at SGraphite.
Would be cool to get an M color too.

SG is NOT an exclusive M3 color, it is also a regular E90/92 color, that is exactly the reason why I don`t want it, altough it is a nice colour, but it should have been an exclusive one IMO........................

At last, Fox Red with aluminium interior.

mullrat · 08-02-2007, 08:36 AM

Damn...

I think I've decided on my exterior color

doc1 · 08-02-2007, 08:43 AM

Are you sure thats Space grey? - looks a bit bluish tinge to me in the 1st photo. Is it not silverstone?

For comparison, this is what SG looks like in sunlight and it never looked as light as in those pics above, even when I moved it around the window to get the most light on it.

SeanFitz · 08-02-2007, 09:43 AM

Toy car notwithstanding, the above shots are pretty accurate depictions of space gray. For comparison, here's a well lit shot of a space gray M5. Very nice color indeed, and reasonably close to the concept's chrome shadow paint. At least there is still plenty of time to decide...

doc1 · 08-02-2007, 10:21 AM

The more I look at it the more I think its Silverstone. The blue tint is really apparent. The M5 only seems to strengthen this argument

The CSL · 08-02-2007, 10:38 AM

Looks a lot like this pic of Space Grey.

Wonder if it's actually SG II? It certainly doesn't look like the SG M5 nor the E92 model.

Just_me · 08-02-2007, 10:39 AM

the first pics on the M3 which I posted is spacegrey and not Silverstone.

Doc 1, get off the drugs- it's Space Grey. Go to the Official Silverstone II thread and you'll see the diff..........

Im wondering how SG and Bamboo Beige will look. Think I might get sick of Fox Red after awhile... plus I like the two tone beige look on the front dash whereas the fox red is only black.

As I've said before- Fox Red is also on the front dash- if you get the
EXTENDED leather option............

Bulletproof, the Fox Red is not just a black dash. If you get extended leather the dash is red as well.

Here's a pic of it with extended leather......

Thanks! I'd say extended leather is a must have option for any color interior then. The two tone front dash is the only way to liven up this interior.
