Never heard of it. Alpine white is the only BMW white I know of.....oh and Chamonix on 2002's

I have heard of it I believe it is lighter than alpine. I have not seen a car painted ice white to my knowledge but I nearly bought a touch up paint ice white for my old 525.

I am pretty sure ice white is a south african market colour.

Its white with a baby blue hue to it. Hand full in South Africa. My 323i Schnitzer was factory ice white.

So it is a south african colour then ! Just looks like Alpine to me..........probably due to the quality of pictures though.

Hello all; Yep you got it, the vehical came from South Africa exported to the UK. I have spent ages trying to post a picture of it on here, i think you need a degree in computing to do this. If i park it next to the E30 Alpine 2 i have it makes the E30 look cream in colour and yes it has got a blue hue to it. If anybody would like to put the picture of it on here i would email it to you. Best regards
