AW - some yellow hue Mineral White - silver flakes (hence metallic color) Brilliant white - flakes of green, blue and red in it to give it a metallic look (this according to a brialliant white M3 owner on this forum) |

Anyway, color is a personal choice but I liked the Mineral White better so I ordered my 2011.5 M3 Convertible in this color. |

I put this in the Alpine Vs. Mineral thread, but thought it could be useful here as well since this is the official Mineral White thread.
I drove down to a local dealer over here that had an e93 mineral white m3 so I could get an idea of how it will look on my future e92 I just ordered and it happened to be parked next to a 335is. These are iPhone pics and they don't really do it justice, but they'll suffice. It was a cloudy day so I managed to catpure shots in the shade as well as direct sunlight. I've noticed that the mw looks brighter than aw in the shade, but in direct sunlight the aw is brighter. First time seeing a 335is, looks pretty great actually. Overcast: Direct Sunlight: Can't really go wrong with either color! |

Excellent car with excellent color.
I went in the dealer where you got your MW M3 today and was about to place an order for the same color. The salesman told me that a matte black competition edition with all the options is available at the dealer right now. I am not too crazy about the matte black but it does make me think twice before I place the order. I have few questions for you and will pm you shortly. |

You would have to change your name from Sedan Clan to Coupe Group!

how is to live with that paint?
looks great, but if you have to clean it all the time, it kind of defeats the purpose for me. I was thinking to go for Spacegray .. but I'm wondering if Mineral white is not a way to go. I've seen one (not sure if was MW or AW, but I though it had a bit of metallic feel to it) and was looking great!. regarding the colors .. havent seen them for direct comparison .. but since the AW is not metallic, it will have that kind of plastic look to it.. so in a way it will be more white overall, the metallic white will get darker at places depending on the angle you're looking at it, but at least will look not just like a toy color |

this isn't matte frozen colors or anything. Btw, scoll up on this page, there's comparison photos, MW is darker as it has the metallic luster/finish |
