Lemans Blue on Fox red? Yey or Ney?

Ramos · 07-21-2009, 02:12 PM

Anyone have that color combo? Wondering if it would look bad like Montego on Coral red looks horrible on the Non M E92...

I know Jerez on Fox red looks amazing, but I like Lemans better...

This would be for my upcoming M3 sometime in 2011 !!!

Do a search for "superman". Not my style but I would like to see it in person.

I seriously considered that color combo when I was ordering my M. There are a few pics on this forum you can probably search for that will give you an idea of how it looks. However, after perusing the color/interior threads, I decided to switch to AW, which I think looks stunning for an E92 M. I still think fox red is the best looking interior color, but taste is subjective.

Superman is Montego on Coral red...

Fox red is more brown with orange hues...

Check the official Le Mans Blue E92/E93 thread - there's an E93 with this combo. There's also an E92 with Interlagos and Fox Red.

Personally I love it and would have ordered my car this way if I had not bought it off the lot. It's not really like the "Superman" cars with Blue/Corral. It looks a lot more like brown/orange (like Terra on the 3/5 series) than it does red.

No, superman wore a blue suit with red lettering, so the superman look is blue & red.

My old 335 was sapphire on coral, that was no where near superman.

Not unless your name Kal-El

Ramos · 07-21-2009, 03:14 PM

Sorry, fixed.. Superman is indeed Montego on Coral...

But my thinking is Lemans is darker than montego and Fox is more brown / orangy than red..

So does blue work with Brown?

smmmurf · 07-21-2009, 03:19 PM

Urrm... I don't think that's such a great idea... especially if you ever want to sell the car...

Ramos · 07-21-2009, 03:29 PM

Just found pics of an E93 M3 on the Lemans Blue offical picture thread..
Crazy how a beautiful exterior color and a beautiful interior color can look so

together...

Oh well, there's always Jerez Black on Fox Red which I have seen in person and looks stunning

Ramos---good to see you over here on the M3 board. Guess you'll run out of mods to do on that 335 in a year or so?

Just like I suggested that mods were addictive over on the E90 post I've suggested here that the 335 is a gateway drug to the M3. Looks like I may be on to something....

How's that dog (Shiba Inu) of yours?

Poppin Fresh · 07-21-2009, 03:50 PM

+1.

I've got this color combo LMB/Silver Novillo, and I think it looks great together. This would also be my suggestion if you're going to get LMB.

Damage Inc · 07-21-2009, 04:37 PM

nope

Nawaaz · 07-21-2009, 04:43 PM

Ney.

#1 problem is that I hate Fox Red leather.

JohnnyRoaster · 07-21-2009, 05:57 PM

This one is interlagos on FR.
