View Full Version : What Is The Sexiest Color You've Ever Seen On An E34? e34slave 11-30-2005, 04:29 PM I think the BMW stock white is real good romeox929 11-30-2005, 04:51 PM black..partly because I'm biased twoup32 11-30-2005, 05:00 PM i think charcoal grey..its the best.. did u not know white is called "60 day white" by dealers cos they cant sell them any quicker than that? (not a joke) Jazzbass 11-30-2005, 05:00 PM Harlequin purple/green. White - too plain Black - too common Red - too tired Green - too common Blue - way too common Yellow - you're joking, right?

LJSE34 11-30-2005, 07:24 PM Jon K's color Alan 11-30-2005, 07:33 PM Alpine White. Duh. And yes it is 60 day white, in the UK. I remember reading an article in BMWCar a year or so ago about a PERFECT under 20K mile 635CSi that was basically showroom new. The author of the article basically said that because it was white it was probably unsellable. Almost. In the US its not nearly as bad. More like 40 or 45 day white. xatlas0 11-30-2005, 07:53 PM Calypsorot with black mouldings. I think it gives the car nice contrast. Andryuha 11-30-2005, 08:11 PM Calypsorot, Islandgrun or byzanz The Beastmaster 11-30-2005, 10:10 PM byzanz on an E34? :eek: sdwhitney 11-30-2005, 11:30 PM Since they didn't make pink, I have to go with white.... cencalballer 11-30-2005, 11:50 PM byzanz on an E34? :eek: seen it it looks good. although i wonder how they got it. snaybird1000 11-30-2005, 11:54 PM Orient Blue Metallic is really nice.

I thought we settled on it being a 350Z color and not teh BYZANNNAAAAZZZ!!!! :eek: Alan 12-01-2005, 12:21 PM I agree, its the 350Z color, not Byzanz. I think that was the general consensus then too. They're very close though. e34slave 12-01-2005, 12:45 PM well.. I wasnt here a few yrs ago, but the byzanz does look sexy shragon 12-01-2005, 01:08 PM black :shifty gol10dr1 12-01-2005, 01:21 PM techno violet followed closely by avus blue :shifty IchLiebeBMW 12-01-2005, 01:50 PM black..partly because I'm biased +1 Black rocks. Alan 12-01-2005, 02:41 PM techno violet followed closely by avus blue :shifty Avus is a REALLY hot color. But i just can't deal with 4 door sedans being blue. They always look too conservative. But dunk a wagon or a coupe in Avus and I'll love it. Almost feel the same way about Techno. But there its the other way, I think its too loud for a sedan. White looks good on everything. BimmerFreak 12-01-2005, 02:45 PM well..

(not a joke) It's crazy. My mom just bought an 05 X5 4.4. The thing is loaded and it is a really nice car. CPO, less than 10 grand on the odometer. The car supposedly has been sitting on the lot over at Bob Smith BMW in Calabassas for a few months (maybe more, maybe less...can't quite remember, but it was a long time.) Gunslinger 12-01-2005, 11:45 PM Somebody on here has a metallic dark grey - Sterling Grey? - e34 which is the best looking stock color I've seen, at least in pics - It just looks straight up classy.

Johnny 5 12-02-2005, 11:33 AM It depends on what you are going for. Are you a young hip hopper? Someone who likes to race? A lawyer? A doctor? Most Blacks Alpine III Calypso Orient Artic Silver Orionco Body kits and interior contrast are some things to consider when choosing a color. M5next 12-02-2005, 01:49 PM Avus blue without a doubt. Stephan735i 07-23-2006, 01:06 PM The 1995 Avus blue M5 is a friend of mines car, really nice example, we have a lot of M5 in Sweden=) My favorit Colors is 303 Cosmos black 299 Techno violett 283 Daytona violett Avus blue and Petrol-Mica isn’t bad either. Regards Stephan attack eagle 07-23-2006, 01:16 PM Black - its a timeless classic Ditto. No other color looks as good when clean, whether it's day, night, dawn, dusk, rain, or shine. And no other color shows of the curves and straight bodylines as well http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b106/AttackEagle/bimmer/100_067025.jpg RVAE34 07-23-2006, 01:23 PM Alpine white III E34N 07-23-2006, 01:23 PM no doubt... black! but really like the avus blue at a close 2nd atl530i 07-23-2006, 01:47 PM #1 - black probably because it looks great when it is wet. #2 - red because of the contrast between the actual paint and trim. e39dream 07-23-2006, 01:54 PM I really like red e34s for some reason. angrypancake has a sharp red one. BavarianCrzd 07-23-2006, 02:05 PM Oxford Greennn! ///Metal 07-23-2006, 02:46 PM My 535i is alpine white and I think it looks gorgeous. Still, I think the sexiest colors are the silver and grey metallics. Fastx525ixGuy 07-23-2006, 03:49 PM My favorites: Avus Jet Black (like mine) Calypso red wmann 07-23-2006, 06:52 PM I am partial to grey... I have an Artic Grey 1995 540/6sp that I am sure I paid more than I would have in any other color..... I would also have taken a Delphin gray...not sure if it was an 34 color, but I had it on a 1985 318 and liked it... second and third would be: Avus Cosmos Black The Beastmaster 07-23-2006, 11:42 PM http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y278/bokubo/funnyA.jpg bjwhite 07-23-2006, 11:58 PM AvusBlau....same goes for the E39 in my opinion.... zlh 07-24-2006, 12:50 AM 1. Black - sexy and classy 2. Red - sporty without losing its classiness 3. White - not as bold as red but still stands out nixter 07-24-2006, 01:21 AM Best non M5 color- Charc grey. Best M5 color- Avus blue (with Tstars or M-parallels). I actually didn't like my sterling silver M5 when I bought it but it's seriously grown on me. The black trim really sets it off. n 2DYE4 07-24-2006, 04:30 AM Best non M5 color- Charc grey. Best M5 color- Avus blue (with Tstars or M-parallels). I actually didn't like my sterling silver M5 when I bought it but it's seriously grown on me. The black trim really sets it off. n I love sterling, black, and of course mauritius blea http://i3.ebayimg.com/01/i/07/b4/24/41_3.JPG White5 07-24-2006, 04:36 AM Alpine white :D ... and what is up with those wheels on the ///M ^^ MickeOllars 07-24-2006, 04:38 AM On an E34: Avus Blue and Arctic Silver! :) That said, a well polished Jet Black is never wrong... /Micke nixter 07-24-2006, 05:08 AM Those are the turbine covers that were stock on the M5 for 91-92. They are designed to channel air to the brakes. They are exactly the same wheel as the throwing stars except for different covers. Some think they look a little old fashioned due to the white wall illusion but many purists love them. n e34werkz 07-24-2006, 12:15 PM Arktis Grau although I'm biased followed by calypso rot. joyfret 07-24-2006, 06:09 PM Hey Alpine White all the way! BTW, Did E34 come in Aspen Silver Met? Paint code 339. angrypancake 07-24-2006, 07:08 PM I really like red e34s for some reason. angrypancake has a sharp red one. thank you very much. zinnoberrot :buttrock I love Avus Blue though.... and Daytona Violet is badass, but it could be a tiny bit brighter. Stephan735i 07-24-2006, 08:01 PM Hey Alpine White all the way! BTW, Did E34 come in Aspen Silver Met? Paint code 339. Yes, but to my knowledge only on Touring, "do to the late arrival of the color" there are a Aspen silver 4/96 525 tds Touring on German advert site autoscout24 "de" search for a €4098 car with 289000 km and some pictures should turn up. Sorry no links from me yet. Regards Stephan tricken 07-24-2006, 10:15 PM alpine white ftw but has to have dark dark tint maybe because all my a cars are that way SpecRaceM5 07-25-2006, 02:38 AM I'm partial to alpine, but if i got another it would be a black 95 M5 with 18" parallels. Wish I could think of something a little less plain then black and white. We need more pics to back up your votes....of course now I'm not going to post any.:banghead: WebDev 07-25-2006, 11:12 AM IMO, white cars are never sexy. Not saying they look bad, but sexy does not factor in. BigTed00 07-25-2006, 11:31 AM Avus by far, and then calypso then gray ehlpitel 07-25-2006, 01:10 PM Some sort of purple.
