wow Blue Ridge Mountain is the best color for BMW I have ever seen

buddenfan · 08-14-2023, 07:21 AM

Yesterday at an Electric expo I saw the IX in this color and was just blown away. This to me is the best colow BMW

heavyD^2 · 08-14-2023, 08:48 AM

It's interesting looking and I'm sure photos don't do it justice so I would have to see it in person as I'm not the biggest fan of teal blues.

Looks awesome on your photos!

Agreed, I also would have to see it in person.

Yeah I was stunned in person. Its everything the Cape York Green shouldve been.
I wonder if this Blue Ridge is a color option for the XM

I honestly got lost in the various color options, but one very nice BMW rep gave me this link: https://individual.bmw-m.com/F97-11EC—S03

It actually changed some since I last looked at it, but I think you should still be able to see most options.

pikkagtr · 08-14-2023, 12:23 PM

Looks a bit like Atlantis Green
But I have to disagree
The best bmw color is Alpine White
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

KCuv · 08-14-2023, 12:23 PM

damn that is nice.

this past xmas I was extra nice to my mother and bought her a 4series vert, and I chose the arctic race whatever blue/green, its beautiful in person, darker than the configurator shows -and pretty close to this one in OP

Online pictures are never as good as seeing a car in person.

My X7 is blue ridge mountain. While I don't think it's anywhere near the "best" color from BMW, I do like it.

Too much silver for me and I like the Miami/teal blues.

BMWCCA1 · 08-16-2023, 07:40 AM

The color BRMM has been around for years on the 3-series. No big deal.
As always, it's in the eye of the beholder.

GOLFFRR · 08-16-2023, 08:12 AM

BMW does have a lot of great blues

G35POPPEDMYCHERRY · 08-16-2023, 09:46 AM

You must not be looking

Driving back from PCD earlier this year, through the blueridge mountains, snapped a handful of pictures of that very color in nature:

Looks like a faded Snapper Rocks Blue - I don’t like that either

This color looks best with blacked out headlines, black accents and rims

tturedraider · 12-04-2023, 03:51 PM

It’s a very nice color. BMW has been using it for a while now.
