IS IT RIGHT?

Gorgeous. My favorite of them all.

Hey Jules - how's it going. I know what AW and MW are. What is BW? R U saying it is milkier than MW (but not as much as AW) and has more pearl to it than MW?

I definitely prefer MW to AW, but have never seen BW as an option. Always thought I preferred AW but the MW is so much more lively and less milky.

I've just ordered an M235i and have a few weeks to confirm either MW on Terra or MG on Terra. Please see my post and vote and add your comments. No option in Canada for BW. Guys would probably prefer MW to BW anyway, assuming MW has only some pearl and also some silver and platinum, as opposed to BW w more pearl? Your thoughts?

Regards,
Greg

Hey Grey, how's it going? An M235i? - Congrats!! What an awesome choice

It's hard to describe.... when I saw it, I did a double take. I wouldn't say more "milky", but more "pearly", yes... It's also more "lustrous" color.

Mineral white is a terrific color - very clean. Yes, a more silvery color.

It would be a standout with Terra. I'll go vote in your poll now.

the Mineral White has a bit of a pearl or sheen to it when compared to Alpine White.

Alpine is just a flat...pure white and is the most common white color on a BMW.

I like the look of Brilliant White - always been a fan of black M3's, but that car looks amazing
