Yep, my E36 is TV. It's an epic color.
FYI, most of those cool colors during the E36 days were lead based. I like that they brought back EB and would love to see TV brought back though. It's such a classy "loud" color.

Good question?
In my opinion I think the fascination of blue colors on the cars M is a meaning of identity closely linked to BMW and clear that the true BMW lovers or fans know well that there is a charm because there is always something new or different tones that make get excited and want them.
Some will say they prefer dark other means and other light colors, and others will want different shades like blue-green or blue-purple and others will say more glass or metal flakes. Last edited by Pure; 09-06-2014 at 09:09 AM.. |

e46 had Estoril blue II.
Estoril blue was first introduced on the e36 individ, mostly the UK market. e46 Individual also got Estoril blue, and I have seen e46 ///M's in Estoril blue II as well. F10/f20/f30 all have Estoril blue III. |

Meh, might have to stick with black, white, or red. Looks like my neighbors r-Type Volvo color. Will have to see in person first but I prefer a darker blue.

The original Estoril Blue was only available for the E46 3 series and M3 if you ordered the car through individual.The only model it was standard on was the E46 3 series club sport model.Estoril Blue II was never available on the E46 3 series.It was first introduced on the F30 3 series. There is no Estoril Blue III BMW paint. |

Does anyone know if AY will be available on the M2?
Cheers EDIT: Just wondering, because I saw this pic of a gorgeous M235i last night (I realize this is not AY, but if this yellow looks THIS good on an M235i, then AY on the M2 should look pretty damn hot). Last edited by Adem1534; 09-17-2014 at 03:34 PM.. |
