Whats the worst colour you think bmw made for the e30 ???

[Alex]

i hate malashite or any shade of green

[Ollie_bwoii]

I just absolutely love the green chromie! I even love the bottle tops! <<<<<

[magpie]

Worst : Mink Brown


Best : Malachite Green Chromie







These cars were previously on pistonheads!

i meant this one at the start but i said bronze [soz] to all the bronzies.

[bss325i]

I had a terrible 318i for a few months years ago which was 'Pusta green' but unsure of the spelling - colour code 194 anyway. Ive even got a touch up stick for it somewhere

Check the comedy value plate



In my opinion - the worst colour for the E30! LOL

James

Pusta grun/Pasta green! I didn't think anyone would have a pic of one let alone have owned one!

That IS the worst colour!

[Alex]

it needs Polizei on the side and a blue light on the top with white police decals on the side and it would look like an 80s german cop car

[GrindCulture]

Yeah that's pretty horrendous.

[Blitz]

Orange

[Speedtouch]

Isn't that Henna Red?

[Ollie_bwoii]

Orange and 4 door, doesnt get much worse!

[magpie]

:eek:this fetched my curry the other night,the white is fine but,wtf???????

[GrindCulture]

That's what I thought, Henna Red is lovely, pictures don't really do it justice.

[Alex]

a massive tin of pink council

Is that for sale or did you actually save that picture to your computer!

[Alex]

i never saved it i googled pink e30 and copied the url into here

[Alex]

wanna see its rear end

[harry_p]

the horrible light blue and greens they did in the 80s, mainly seen on chromies, but best suited to manky oap spec fords.

strangely browns, beiges and bronzes now have a sort of retro charm about them

[Alex]

there used to be an e30 advertising paint around here but it looked like it had crashed through B&Q's paint aistle and had salt corrotion to the rear arches poor chromie

[georgen]

Orange

That's brilliant. Here in Scotland, the Police are known as the "Polis". Couldn't imagine seeing this car running about up here though..

[Ollie_bwoii]

AHH great the pink one was a chrome turd! that makes it worse! POOR CHROMIE!

[GrindCulture]

I agree with that, not sure why but I like them...

and light dull greens

[ShepsEvo3]

Resceder or receda? Green, Light - ish metallic green, usually comes with a matching green interior too.. But it was available on all models. My late uncle had a 628csi auto in that colour... how much worse can you get to that.

[BMracing]

I can't really think of a colour that doesn't have its own appeal in some way, as long as it suits the spec of the car. Some solid/neutral colours might look a bit cheap on a basic e30, but can look the tits on a sport or M3 say.

[Geo]

it needs Polizei on the side and a blue light on the top with white police decals on the side and it would look like an 80s german cop car

Auf Pet series 1?

[nickso]

Personally I think cirrus blue is a horrid cheap colour. Infact, all the blues are gash except the one the iS was avialable in.

how dare you sir, its not that bad

I like cirrus on an e30 but hate it with vengance on an e34.

For me it HAS to be the flat beige's and that Pasta green. What were BMW thinking for christs sake. Also the Burgandy Red amd the Doom (atlantis) blue does nothing for me either.

As for the light Gold's? Again I like them on an e30 as I do White (and did so before I bought my car). Both colours are so '80's, to me they seem to work.

The later colours such as calypso red and mauritious blue lovely and I'd have a motorsport cab in them anyday. But to me they are a bit "modern" for the e30 if that makes sense?

[Felix79]

One of the Alpine Whites is horrible. My cab has both Alpine White 1 and Alpine white 2. One of them is a more creamy white which is awful the other is a brilliant bright white which is awsome.

[Ziggy]

Most colours can look good on the right car... apart from mineral blue. Oh, wine red is pretty nasty too, as is that pasta green - which I was quite happily ignorant of until today.

Anyone who dislikes henna red is actually blind and should have their driving licence revoked.
