Whatever you like best. Only get black if you like washing cars.

To be perfectly honest. All colors that are not silver grey are rubbish.

I read it on the Internet, thus is true.

Jet Black. But it only looks good for a couple days after a fresh wash. But it looks VERY good for those two days.

I chose Silver/Grey more because I think it could have been called Pavement Grey, lol. Its been a boon to be nearly invisible to cops and tickets.

Brake dust. Happens with any color paint, but probably looks best with Sepang Bronze.

I like white and red best, of course my M Roadster is black. Black swirls easy and is a bad choice if your picky about your car's finish. Silver is too common a car color for me(all makes I mean). The blue looks cheap

I think white would be fitting to your name hah, its also my favorite color for BMWs. my last car was white!

My current car however is all black, hah... It looks amazing (when its clean ) and fits the Z4 very well.



Here are a few from after a detail; you can really see the metallic flakes







Blue and Sepang have really grown on me too; this car looks good in many different colors!

I-blue is the only way to fly. And it's an M-exclusive color.
