Nice to see you with a camera in your hand again Nikki.

Where is the Boston scenery?

Well that was taken in CT actually. I posted a few photos from when I moved down but besides that I have been pretty busy. Here is a shot of the view out our window

Hi all,

i can also add some shots of a E90 330i 2006 to this topic!

Got the car about a year ago for a test-drive over a weekend. The car was (is?) from the fleet of the BMW Niederlassung Frankfurter Ring (branch office of BMW sales department in germany).

Here are the pics:

I just got my 335i Artic, and let me say it is amazing... I whent in to buy a Black Sapphire but after seeing the Artic i fell in love with it.. and i had no idea it changes colors.. after driving it all day when i got home, i got out of the car and stared at it for like 5 minutes lol... anyways if any of you guys out there are debating between colors i highly suggest you take a look at the artic metallic.. its such a nice color to have.. doesnt get dirty like the black!!

I still stare at it till today! LOL, unlike many other colors (red, blue, black) you don't get easily bored of this color.

Looking back, I am so satistfied I didn't get my E90 in silver, which in any shade, is rather ordinary compared to Arctic.

Try taking some shots in sunshine AND in cloudy overcast skies to really appreciate the color transition!

And whats more ammazing is that it does the same at night!
Congrats on your purchase!

Just ordered my second E90, this time in arctic after sparkling graphite. I have chosen a dark interior which I hope will contrast well. I have no idea what arctic looks like but my wife said a few people have it at her work and it looks "cool". I was worried, but, after seeing all the posts here I'm looking forward to the delivery in September

It turns different colors depending on what time of day (due to sunlight) ive seen my Arctic go from silver green/blue -> light silver blue -> Silver blue -> Silver gray -> silver gold -> gray -> dark gray.

HiYo2o · 08-20-2007, 04:43 AM

i love the artic metallic color... so sexy =]
its a good color but for some reason theres not that many around here, mostly the standard black or white

Magictek · 09-05-2007, 08:06 PM
