    What other color of Z3/M would you trade for?

    I originally owned a 99 Montreal Blue over Beige Z3 Coupe. I was never much of a fan of either color, and would have traded it for almost any other color of Z3 Coupe. I sold that after buying a 99 Arctic Silver over Gray/Black M Coupe. Silver wasn't bad at all, and I really liked the Gray/Black interior, but I really wanted an S54, namely Laguna Seca Blue. I really lucked out and bought my current LSB M Coupe and sold the Arctic Silver M Coupe. I wouldn't trade my LSB for any other color, but would gladly trade the all black interior for Gray/Black, or better yet Walnut Extended Leather from a Z3 Coupe.



    So that's my 2¢...

    What color combo of Z3/M Roadster or Coupe would you trade yours for? Let's keep it limited to production colors, nothing "individual", but any exterior/interior combo is fair game. For the sake of this thread, let's assume everything else would be the same (mods, mileage, condition, etc).

    I think Jeremy started this thread to make us all jealous of his LSB coupe. Well, all of us except for Mpire.

    Jeremy, check your email

    Coupes...
    I think I have a good selection of colors...

    As long as the interior is Estoril.

    I passed up a PY Coupe for the SG.
    White is Right, Steel Grey is OK, but Estoril is the only color that truly matters.

    I like Coupes.

    I never have, and probably never will like LSB. Something about it is just not to be trusted. lol.

    Estoril however, I could paint a bunch of things that color.

    If it was the same condition car, I would trade for a black over imola or steel gray over imola.

    Honestly though, the only color combo I have considered selling my car for is Evergreen/Evergreen. I tried to sell it to buy the Evergreen M Coupe that was on the buyers guide, but it sold very quickly. I love that color combo

    Cosmos Black Metallic over Kyalami orange + black. Realistically though, I'd go Steel Grey over Imola. Love that combo.

    I wouldn't trade my Estoril for any color, I would however trade for a gray/black interior.

    I'm also a big fan of Cosmos on Kyalami. Black Z3's just do something for me.

    Evergreen, Phoenix, LSB. In that Order.

    And you know what, this will be crazy... but Oxford green has really grown on me. It's nowhere near as blue (and ugly) as boston.

    This....Steel Gray barely beats out Estoril in my book. However it's not available in an S52 M.....

    Looking at the other posts I can't believe there isn't anybody looking for a Sundown Metallic Roadster:

    The things I would do for PY over Kiwi...
    http://www.coupeaday.com/2010/12/01/...kiwi/#more-572

    It's an individual color, but Mora is one of my favorites...the full individual edition with lotus white interior. I like the interior so much I copied it for my car.

    I'm also one of the few that seems to like Fiji.

    And last is Atlantis. Best with the matching extended leather interior, of course.
