I like the red calipers on that last picture.

Such a sexy car! Thanks Jason.

On another note, we havnt seen hardly any professional pictures of Alpine. Most of the Magazines have either photographed Red or Jerez and the brochure pics are too overdone to get a good idea of real life.

I am hoping some Mags start shooting AW from some high quality pics....

the super dark tint on the simulator M3 looks good with AW

This is the best..... I could live there fo the rest of my life. A parking lot full of 3 series coupe and cabrio....

Currently waiting for my dealer to confirm if this white is possible (and how much it costs if so) for the M3. Dont suppose anyone is capable of photoshopping an M3 into something close to this colour are they?

Looks like Moonstone. I have seen that on an M5 once and it was beautiful. Complete with Piano Black.
It should be available under Individual.

Its Brilliant White Epacy, a pearlescent. Moonstone is more silver. Moonstone is available through Individual, I dont think Brilliant White is officially.

Moonstone...

Looks like Moonstone to me. The ad makes sense also if its Moonstone!

Very pretty color

[Leg]

Niro posted that pic and said it was brilliant white. It certainly isnt Moonstone, one is white and one is silver. Admittedly its hard to tell on t'internet pics

As Niro found out (on the thread Leg posted) that's the BMW Individual 6 Series Golf Sport and indeed painted Brilliant White. So far that color is only available for 6 series convertible and 7 series.

Best regards, south

Gorgeous color... hopefully a choice on all models soon

Listen up guys,

I took some photos of a 6er in Moonstone Individual. As previously mentioned, Moonstone is a closer relative to Silverstone, i.e. silver with bluish hues - but Moonstone has a silkier appearance - trust me, I have seen a 5 and a 6 in Moonstone. In comparison, Brilliant White Individual is a radiant, pearlescent white that is close relative to Alpine White. Again, as with Moonstone, the Brilliant White has a silky, deeper look.

Enjoy the pics, and let me know whether you prefer the Moonstone or the Brilliant White. From what I understand, these photos of mine are only the second set for Moonstone on the Net!!!
I am currently in the process of trying to hunt down a Brilliant White that I, myself, can photograph for this forum.

Laters.




P.S. Fox Red with Brilliant White Individual is definitely gonna be my selection if they have rolled-out the paint option to the M3 Cab by next Spring.

P.P.S. Epacy and JEllis, as per South's- and Leg's- posts, that "Most Unique Way To Drive A BMW" 6-series is in Brilliant White, and NOT Moonstone.

Hard to tell the real color on that quality of picture.

Err... okay... but that's clearly not white(!)

Photos not great in quality as was taken on a camera-phone, and then shrunk to allow faster downloading for anyone who looks at the thread.

Wasn't saying it wasn't. Why are you getting all aggravated over some colors? :sad0147:
