    Here is a picture of the 95 Daytona M3 I used to have. Daytona is actually slightly lighter than Techno in the direct sun.

    Haha don't worry J, that was my old car. I now have a Techno Violet car, not that Daytona.

    I have a Techno M and have seen a Daytona. We checked it out side by side and the Techno is just slightly lighter looking in the sun.. in the shade it was hard to tell...

    I always thought that Daytona's are more of pinkish purple.. from those photos taken in magazines when M3 was just released in 1995...

    I agree with this statement. In certain angles in the sun, techno also looks a little pinkish, but I think Daytona more so.

    V Shah,

    Do you have more photos of your Daytona?
    Ya, in 1995 when M3 was just released.. Daytona was on every single car mag... the color was very unique... I wanted it badly at that time (but no money)...

    Here are some pics at almost the same angle. Sorry the lighting is different, it makes a big difference on the shade of each color.

    Daytona Violet:
