How about the blue that was on the conquest TSI around 1989, that color was amazing. I will see about finding it...it was electric blue.

So are you looking for a flat blue or metallic? That will help alot.
Its all your preference. IMO any electric blue or whatever belongs on a Honda, they just look like toys to me on a bimmer...

There is that blue on the M3 e36. I think its similar to electric blue or laguna seca is the name or something.

But this site is cooler. (Or it would be if it worked on my computer. Does it work on anyone else's?). It is the stock 2002 colors on a 2002 though. I wish someone would make one of these for the E21. Anyone gots the skills?

Naah go with Lucerne Blue. Its a Pontiac color on late 60's and early 70's GTO's and Trans Ams. Its would look hot on a 320i. Just about the same color as LeMans Blue for Camaros and Chevelles of the same era.

Another color would be Glacier Blue (Also a 69 Camaro color) or this Astro Blue (about the same as Glacier)

That electric blue or even a Viper blue is too much on the e21. Too ricer looking.

This is mine - Stratosblau Metallic. Not very dark but does appear darker than this in low light conditions.
