Help you what?

You are the one who has to live with the color. Go look at them both in person and make a decision that fits your style and taste.

You like blue....try Jerez Black.....a whole new spin on blue

Personally, I'm not a fan of red.

Melbourne Red is Hotness

[!Xoible]

you should get IB coz i like IB and i do not like red, and since im paying for your car, and im driving it, you should get the color that _I_ like. thxbai

MR

I'm a dark gray and medium silver guy. I almost pulled the trigger on Interlagos blue but chickened out at the last minute and got Jerez black, which appears black, blue and even purple in certain lights. I could not be happier with the color I ended up with for my sedan... but had I been painting a coupe it would have been Interlagos blue. I think the IB NEEDS the silver 19's though.

MR with Bamboo Beige interior and carbon Fiber trim looks awesome.

Either way, it is your car and you need to love it !!!!!

Good luck

Out of those 2, I say go with MR. Have you considered Space Gray? Check out eas's project car. I totally fall in love with that color after I saw that thread.

i asked this same question when i joined the forum and, to be quite honest, noone can awnser this for you. It wasnt until i saw my dream m3 in person that i realized this. Its what makes your jaw drop, m3 or not, go for the car that makes you say.... damn, i can see myself in that.

For ME, its an AW e92 avec carbon fiber roof Extended Fox Red leather, Carbon Leather trim and all the options, but you have your own preferences so follow your heart.

Think of it this way, do you have to be told if your a tits or ass guy, i think everyman knows for himself. Whether he admits it or not.

dang......i need to see em in person...next to eachother....i like colors that show the IB and MR standout most from bmw m3 color chart its just there so dam sexy its hard to choose....boy i wish i was rich....but im not and im going to have to choose.....ugghhhhh....

if i were rich id take the JB an AW after u got the IB and MR.....the rest of the colors are justplain or least notice able to my opinion.....i hope they make pheonix yellow again i thought it was nice


BMW M3's most special colors.....IR,MR,IB,LSB,PY,DY but the best is Laguna seca blue,interlagos blue, imola red....those are for the slashes of the ///Mblem

I'm torn right now between Le Mans Silverstone and Space Grey right now
I've seen them all but they're all so different nobody could really decide for me

It's going to come down to the wire for you like everyone else, or you could just flip a coin. But out of those two I think the MR looks hot on the M3

[TTG]

I was torn between Dakar Yellow, MR and Space Gray. Dakar is great but it is a love & hate thing and it is begging for attention and I am not.

MR, is a great color but the resale might be tough and the only BMW red I like is Imola..... I fell in love with Space Gray the min I saw it and could not get enough of it on my 335.....so I ordered the M3 in Space Gray. Go with what you really like.....in your case the IB

This whole thing is very subjective. I think Dakar is terrible. An E36 color that should have ended there.

To the OP, only you can decide. Just go to dealers and check them out. If you are honestly undecided, just flip a coin...if you are truly right in the middle, you'll be happy with either one.

I have to agree that indeed this is very subjective. One persons dream car will be someone else's nightmare combination.

Personally, I think that Dakar looked good on the e36 and only on the e36. Even then it took a long time for it to grow on me. Then BMW came out with their new yellow, Phoenix yellow and sorry to say, that looked more like to me (IMHO).

I'd say to go with a colour that will not attract too much attention, will give a hint of understated elegence, and will fetch the most in resale. IMHO both Space Grey and Interlagos Blue fit the bill.

Either way, you're getting yourself one heck of a car!

Cheers!

If you're not concerned about speed, any color will do. Everyone (should) knows that Space Gray is the fastest.

Just curious, since you are getting an '09, why did you rule out Le Mans blue? It's probably worth looking at.

You can't go wrong with any of the three though.

Both look great. I think the red would draw too much unwanted attention (you know, from those folks that like to measure your speed). Blue, less so. Other than that, I don't know what to say.
