If I order a 2010-2011 e90 m3...is it possible to get it in Sparkling Graphite? as they stopped production for that color in 2008?

Charcoal Grey - A No Brainer?

I have always been surprised that a metallic charcoal grey is not one of the standard BMW colors for the entire lineup for BMWs.

I have seen it on a number of Porches and they are gorgeous.

Space Grey is too light and not so metallic.
Black Sapphire Metallic is too dark.
Dark Graphite Metallic is getting close....

Cheers!

It looks more like the first photo I posted. (Velvet Blue)

Here are a few pics of my friend's beautiful Midnight Blue Individual coupe.

THIS is what Midnight Blue really looks like...
OMG,

Sigh, those E46 M3 are so timeless.....

I'm sorry, did the OP said he ordered Imola Red?

rool I cant wait to see that!

For what its worth though, I would have had a difficult time choosing between IR and Brilliant White, there is one in the states (on this board too) and every picture of it just looks amazing...

having seen Merino Amarone in real life i'm convinced that if i ever do custom interrior it will be in that colour. So classy in dark metallic blue car.

To anyone's knowledge, there's no such thing as a MZ4 or MZ4 Coupe of the E89 series -- Do you now have information as to the contrary?
