That's so sweet. I love unique colors!

The color blew me away in person. It changes from blue to green depending on lighting. It's my favorite BMW blue by far!

color is awesome, IMO it needs tints and it would be perfect. but i think every car/color needs tints.
so what color did you order your M in ?

itz16v · 07-01-2009, 05:39 PM

Congrats, love the color!

Blake · 07-01-2009, 06:18 PM

I'll be posting some more shots this evening, after I get back to my place. None outside just yet, but when I take delivery on Fri. I will make sure to take some.

On a somewhat ironic note, biglare, when I was signing my contract I noticed something a bit unusual. Under the color box, Brilliant White had been filled in. Kinda unusual, I thought.

Definately not me.....but I am partial to Brembos.

Btw, I live in the Dallas area also.

Yes it is a special order/individual car like the BW car, and it is a bit pricey. To me it is worth the cost. To others it is probably not.

I didnt get tints on this as i thought it looked good with the cream leather visible, contrasted well with the blue colour....As for the M....i cant say at the moment, will just have to wait and see

Think these a few people have the colour already...

wafik · 07-01-2009, 06:52 PM

Definatly worth the cost

Clearbra install on friday immediately before delivery!

Buschy · 07-01-2009, 10:10 PM

What are you waiting for? the car is in the delivery bay waiting for you?
The color is differnt then I thought, however its inside so probably looks different outside. I wouldnt get it, but I would nt get a violet M3 either, so to each his own.
