Hep Decide: Space Grey or Sapphire black w/Coral Red Leather

rocketm · 04-20-2007, 02:07 PM

Hi,

I have trouble in choosing the colour for E93

A) Metalic sapphire black exterior w/coral red interior leather, silver brush aluminum
B) Space Grey exeterior w/coral red interior leather, silver brush aluminum

Which one is better? Pros? Cons?

rjs · 04-20-2007, 02:28 PM

you will find plenty of pros/cons of black ownership.

If it was me, from that choice, I'd have grey.

Get the one you thinks looks best

ALPINE6SPD · 04-20-2007, 04:12 PM

get the BS. The space gray is noce but the black with red is a cleaner look IMO.

STE92VE · 04-20-2007, 04:13 PM

Get the black, I want my color to be more unique.

Picking up my Sapphire/Coral/dark poplar coupe on Monday. The dealership has a Space gray/coral/alum as a demo. Both look very good, but IMHO, the black looks better when its clean. So if you are not a clean your car freak ( and really I mean superfreak) you would be best to get the Space gray. BTW, this is my 5th and last black car. Every time a get a black car I say never again. My new car would be red if BMW actully made a red that I like that is actually available on the 335i.

I don't like all the extra work in the black cars. If I hadn't gone Sparkling Graphite I would have done Space Gray. Actually even to this day I'm not sure which I like best. Anyway, my vote Space Gray and red! Either way you can't go wrong. Convertible in Toronto? That just sounds too cold to me!

SPACE! Beautiful classic color. I have one on order. I saw it last night on a 328 vert under fluorescent lights. It has a bluish steel hue which is pretty IMO. :rocks:

if you really want the red interior then go with black.
