Yes the only colors you don't have to pay an extra $475 for is Alpine White, Electric Red and Jet Black.

Am I correct in assuming that the angel eyes only comes on the xenon lights? Anyone know? Thanks.

I have a question~Is anybody know that can we get the clean corner light in US??

poldim · 10-24-2005, 04:40 PM

Low angle shots

hey poldim I live in Blacksburg too...we should meet up and go for a ride......

Sparkling graphite rocks...combine that with the angel eyes and the night time look is unmistakable. Its more of a chameleon, in my opinion, because it's almost black at nite. In the day, it's got hints of dark purple and charcoal. A nice look indeed.

Kurupt1811 · 10-24-2005, 05:07 PM

for some reason the angel eyes on that car look whiter than mine. is that because it is eurospec?

It's probably the digital camera's white balance. The surround light looks pretty warm, but the angel eyes are very white.

Xens · 10-24-2005, 06:27 PM

I love my sparkling graphite, it gives off illusions of different colors depending on lighting.

correct amundo.

ON325i · 10-24-2005, 06:49 PM

That white balance plus that sparking graphite just makes the 320d looks like a mean looking wild animal... lol

One-Way · 10-24-2005, 11:17 PM

320?

magmd · 10-25-2005, 01:45 AM

Yep...looks whiter because eurospec plus, they don't have the amber corner turn signal like here in US.

Kurupt1811 · 10-25-2005, 05:07 AM

damnit why do eurospec cars have to look so much cooler

BMW786 · 10-25-2005, 08:46 AM

I'm not 100 percent sure, but I think the Euro spec cars have white Angel eyes, because mine are golden. I think it's by design - the amber corner lights complement the golden rings, while the white corner lights on the Euro spec match the white rings. I personally prefer the golden Angel Eyes.

well if i could choose, i would take the white angel eyes to go along with some clear corner lights

Me too, I love Sparkling Graphite. It is by far the best color of the bunch - duh, why do you think BMW only used that color in their promotions. I love how it looks brownish-lavender (yes lavender) in the sunset and dark grey in overcast weather. I've received so many compliments on just the color alone.
