Love the orange, and looks great on the M3 and GTS.
GTS yes, but that's not a 4 door car...

A 4 door anything is too big to carry such a vibrant colour (although it's a refreshing change from the drab palette we see on our roads!)

That looks fantastic.

The Atlantis blue is lovely too.

There is a Feuer Orange F10 M5 near me that's been on sale for several months. It just doesn't work on a normal car. It looks like "Thousand Island Sald Cream" gone bad. GTS with black wheels, maybe...

I like Sakhir Orange though.

We were going to go for Sakhir, but it may as well be called 'red' - it's hardly orange.
Had a Santorini Alpina D3 and would like to see an M3 in it.

Here's another green one, I might have just placed a deposit on it hehe

It's Oxford green, not BRG (unlike the one above).





A nice colour match with my Cerbera and can't wait till I pick it up.

Looks great.
Very similar to the Fern green I had on a 318i back in 2000...

That looks brilliant cool

I was in Wellsway BMW (Bath) yesterday and they have some sort of Frozen Silver M3. I hadn't seen this thread until now otherwise I'd have a. taken a photo and b. paid more attention to the colour. redface

Loving the Lava green colour, just wondering if the BM is a little big for that colour? Anyone else think it looks good, but better on a GT3/RS etc?

Too metallic.

Signal green looks fantastic on the new shape - one of the best colours I've seen on any car. Would also suit the RS really well.

I wonder if the wife would notice if I sold the house and bought that?

I thought the Lambo Grey or Imola Red would take some beating but that Avus Blue is incredible.
