I don't think that Velvet Blue 318ti is original color. I seem to recall a thread about that car being repainted.

Thats my ti. Yes, the car is repaintet, but in original color. But my old Camera doesn't catch the real effect of the car, so it's looks more darkblue.

I don't know a whole lot about E36's, but isn't Calypso fairly rare on the E36? It's not a rare color on other models, but I never seem to see them in Calypso. I am partially biased because my E34 is Calypso, but I was just wondering.
