Bmw 335i coupe color choices?

Elbejoubmw · 08-22-2009, 04:03 PM

So I'm looking to buy a 2007 bmw 335i coupe and I'm having a hard time on what color to chose I'm stuck between alpine white and sparkin or space Grey... i dont know if sparklin and space grey are the same so does anybody know the difference? and an opinion on which color i should try and find?

thank you

RED!!!! crimson red

Sparkling Graphite is a very different color. Much darker, almost blue depending on the lighting. Space Gray is... Gray. My car is Sparkling Graphite, so guess which I prefer.

Sorry to say this, I have an alpine white sedan but the coupe does not look very good in white unless heavily modified. Asking myself why, I came to the conclusion that this is because the coupe's back is too "thin" for white color.

Go with Montego Blue and be happy ever after.

Get some inspiration from this one...

i disagree. alpine white is beautiful on the e92. better than the e90 imo

alpine white is awesome at night, stands outs insanely nice

space gray is a beautiful color that really shows the cars lines nicely, i think you should go with that, but i only like it with black interior

Monaco Blue is the best..you get two colors for the price of 1!

Elbejoubmw · 08-22-2009, 05:15 PM

yeah I like white a lot and also realized that it will look extremely nice with mods such as a front bumper lip and maybe side skirts but stock looks kind of weird to me... but is sparkling graphite hard to match in case i want to order a lip or anything for the exterior of the car?

Craig@SupremePower · 08-22-2009, 06:13 PM

Alpine White!!

iheartsole · 08-22-2009, 06:23 PM

I'd say sparkling graphite. Looks great with red interior, too.

Donald-335i · 08-23-2009, 04:10 AM

monaco blue ftw

Tallest · 08-23-2009, 05:40 AM

white is boring and is a fad colour more than anything - it will look not so good after years (esp if starts turning yellowish).. go for red or montego or just jet black!

twinturboa51 · 08-23-2009, 09:48 AM

montego ftw!!!!!!

I think you are approaching this in the wrong way. Its not like you can just pick up a used car in the EXACT color you want. ALthough if color is the MOST important feature than just look for the color you like best. Since you are asking others what color to get, than I assume that color isn't the primary consideration. Look for cars with low mileage and equipment you like. Look for a CPO in excellent shape. THEN DECIDE IF YOU LIKE THE COLOR SCHEME OF THE CAR. If so, buy it . If not, find another.

Alpine white is easy to care for and it's the color of the Factory M3 race cars

ZJP · 08-23-2009, 11:27 AM

Sparkling Graphite or Monaco Blue

07E92TT · 08-23-2009, 02:10 PM

I like space gray but its real common, white is kinda lame so i'd go with sparkling graphite for a different look. I think its a gorgeous color.
