My imediate choice was white, but after seeing that pic 🤮 I’m a big fan of diff colors, what about a Sunset Orange or Medium Metallic Orange like on my IROC, i think that’d look really different on an older bmw. Wouldnt be overdone like WOW but it would definatley be and eye catcher stand out when it drives by people. Not for everyone i guess but i like it, and somewhat color changing. **In the sun :** ![http://www.justj.net/misc/Z06/Web/z06%202006-06-02%2016.34.07.00.jpg](http://www.justj.net/misc/Z06/Web/z06%202006-06-02%2016.34.07.00.jpg) **In the shade :** ![http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/Meatfoam/Picture3.jpg](http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/Meatfoam/Picture3.jpg) ---

I think the white one is hot as fuck. I just think it looks better with a little more contrast (black bumper strips or something) i have the same sideskirts as that white one ---

Green. White doesn’t look as good on older cars for some reason and the gun metal is fairly common for E30s. ---
