How rare is this colour??

Post by Darkangelv2 » Mon Jul 20, 2015 1:06 pm

Saw this Z4 on eBay -

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-3-0-Si ... 488113f867

I'd not seen a green like this on the Z4 until now - the matching hard top must be even rarer still!

Not my taste though....

Never seen that colour before, not a fan if im honest.

If it had a black sports seat interior i reckon it would look better.

The pictures don't do it justice. There was a coupe that colour at the national 2 years ago, a lot better in the flesh.

You're not wrong, those pictures above look lovely. Needs plenty of light to get the metallic fleck working.

Actually not a bad colour and long may car manufacturers make a wide variety of colours.

The one I really don't like is the drab olive that looks like military paint. In fact the few I've seen seem to have US military flags and logos added :thumbsdown:

Saw a 2.5Si roadster for sale in that colour previously. Looked great from the photos and it had champagne interior. I like it!
