Which is your least favourite F30 colour ?

Isow · 11-07-2012, 03:47 PM

Which F30 colour ,when you see it in reality or even on the colour chart do you think ' no way ' ?

RichardM · 11-07-2012, 04:10 PM

White... sorry I know some people love it.

Edit: and I've just noticed yours is white. Sorry

MaestroAl · 11-07-2012, 04:15 PM

White works in hot countries but just not in the UK. Looks great on a bright, sunny day and questionable on a normal, dreary English day

But for me would have to be red. I just don't do red cars.

F30FAN · 11-07-2012, 04:33 PM

IMHO.. Alpina White is the best

, I know in this country not the ideal choice but.. what the hell!! The worst is the black looks like a hearse...

!!

Doc943 · 11-07-2012, 04:49 PM

I wanted white. My wife wanted silver. I got the car. She got silver. Simples

dopper99 · 11-07-2012, 04:52 PM

Black is the best colour

From what I can see on the configurer Havanna and Sparkling Bronze look pretty awful.

RobUK · 11-07-2012, 05:26 PM

I would have to say Orion Silver Metallic. Looks like faded gold to me

WHITE

EDITED NOT Racist.

RobUK · 11-08-2012, 06:34 AM

Someone on the US site did some renders of the F31 in various colours - Lizard Green being among the worst.

Liquid Blue

SeeeGull · 11-08-2012, 09:07 AM

Another vote for Liquid Blue. Not a fan at all.

B3M4 · 11-08-2012, 03:07 PM

IMO I think the body kit is just as important as the colour. White looks amazing in M-Sport but in SE, well it's no head turner.

Mind you I haven't seen a bad looking M-sport to date.

derekh929 · 03-29-2013, 09:19 AM

I like them all cant see it from the driving Seat

F30AM · 03-29-2013, 09:29 AM

No doubt: WHITE.

Closely followed by BLACK (which is not a colour).
Just saw a WHITE F31 320d M Sport. Looks more CREAM and like A FRIDGE ON A TROLLEY.

RedPepper · 03-29-2013, 09:33 AM

Just going through the photoshopped images and came across Mineral Grey and showed it to my 9 year old. "Meh, it's ok" was his response. Carried on a bit further and he saw "Estoril Blue" and said "that's the one you should get!"

He's now unimpressed that I've actually ordered Mineral Grey, but what does a 9 year old know?! (he says putting on his tin hat!

)

venkata · 03-29-2013, 09:38 AM

Havana
Liquid blue
Sparkling bronze

That's a decent effort on photoshopping, but it's not very representative of the real colours. Mineral Grey and Havanna look MUCH nicer than those pics show. Personally I think EB works best for the M Sport - partly looks, partly exclusivity. Although MG is also a grand colour.

Liquid blue has to get the crown for 'why?' though.

Zero71 · 03-29-2013, 12:18 PM

Not a fan of silver or black. Prefer EB2, MG, White. I'd have gone for Mineral White if it were possible.

jyoung69 · 03-29-2013, 12:26 PM

EB2
