Personally, I think Sonora looks great on a car with aggressive mods.

It's not that rare. Here is a list of the pre-LCI E90 335i colors sorted by rarity.

Jet Black (668) - 5,980
Sparkling Graphite Metallic (A22) - 5,470
Titanium Silver Metallic (354) - 4,988
Alpine White 3 (300) - 4,516
Black Sapphire Metallic (475) - 4,018
Monaco Blue Metallic (A35) - 2,429
Montego Blue Metallic (A51) - 1,085
Crimson Red (A61) - 902
Arctic Metallic (A34) - 625
Platinum Bronze Metallic (A53) - 580
Barbera Red Metallic (A39) - 294
Deep Green Metallic (A43) - 191
Barrique Red (A41) - 112
Sonora Metallic (A23) - 58
Individual Color (490) - 4

The Sonora wins! Although this is for 335. Still. Here she is.

SickFinga , would you be able to provide LCI E92 Coupe #'s?

Thanks

MyF15+F85 · 02-08-2014, 07:31 AM

Now even with the pre LCI 335i color list stilllll, I don't see Vermilion Red on the list. I like my color even more....

Danman5666 · 02-08-2014, 08:00 AM

I still don't see any Crimson Red ones here in town....still pops some heads...

Josh1a1h · 02-08-2014, 08:34 AM

Azurite Black Individual

TeinBMW · 02-08-2014, 09:10 AM

Lemans

I haven't really seen many in Canada.

wilbur_the_goose · 02-08-2014, 11:09 AM

Aren't their colors sold in Europe only?

BMDoublYou · 02-08-2014, 11:42 AM

I didn't love my blue water metallic when I first got it, but it grew on me, quite prefer it to the cookie cutter black/white/silver

Sophisto Gray -

wilbur_the_goose · 02-09-2014, 05:12 PM

Valencia Orange Metallic (I likee!)

I really wish more colors than black/white/dark blue/blue/silver/red were commonly available. Was at the Philly Auto Show and nobody had cool colors, except for the BMW M-series (they had a lime green and a yellow there - both were VERY nice)

I think I may have one of the rarest colors out there

Chameleon paint which transitions from blue, green, and purple

Cory S · 11-20-2015, 12:53 AM

I VERY rarely see Crimson red E90's.

I'm late to the party and don't even see my color listed. It's sort of a pearl white metallic called Mineral White Metallic.

It just looked Alpine White in the for sale ad, it's hard to photograph the actual color so you can see the pearl.
