Best Color for E92?
Im eventually going to get an E92 and I'm wondering what everyone thinks is the best color and why?

I notice a lot of people on the forums get that grey color which I think is butt ugly. I personally love black cars, and If I was talking about the e90 sedan it would be black no question when It comes to a coupe its a lot harder to choose a color.

The e92 is a good looking car but even with mods it will never look as beautiful as the face lift coupe or e46 m3. I don't think it can pull off many colors.


Personally for the e92 My choices are:

Jet Black/Saphire black (I don't like CB or Jerez Black....too blueish)

Or Alpine White with a Black Roof and Black Shark fin antenna.

Alpine always look nice

But if I was to get a E92 M3 I would get Melborne Red.

Are you talking about an E92 335i or E92 M3?

For 335, Space Gray, Alpine White or Montego Blue are all amazing colors. Red interior for Gray or White, and Saddle Brown or Jade Gray (Priority 1 option) for Montego Blue of course!

For the M3, I love Jerez Black or Alpine White over Fox Red interior.

dont worry, I got an E90 328i for the same reasons...

shhh, dont tell anyone!

I'd check out Montego or Monaco Blue over Jade Gray interior. Its a priority 1 option that doesnt cost any extra, but gives you light gray seats over black carpet and dash (like saddle vs. tan). Its special order but its definitely worth it...the 8 weeks wont seem so bad once you see it in person!
