This thread helped me make my decision to go with Montego Blue. Looking forward to having my E90 sometime in the next couple of months!

Edit: Sorry guys ended up going with LeMans Blue instead.

I have been back and forth between what color I want to buy my E90 in. I was stuck between TiAg and the Sparkling Granite. After viewing the Montego Blue both in pictures and in person, I am in love! It is the perfect color for the perfect car! It is such a hard color to find though. I am planning on purchasing a used E90 and will search until I find a Montego Blue one! Love the pics, keep them coming!

best color for both day and night

Tallest · 12-18-2011, 07:14 AM

after just buying a Montego E90 (in sig pic) I have to say, it's a great color. Really like how it looks in overcast weather or under artificial lights (streets at night, garage). Car also stands out nicely in parking lots, but not as 'look at me' as red or yellow. Fits E90 well, but the rear with stock lights (fine on TiAg) looks not as good on darker car. Looks like blacklines are a must on this model.

Also, I think this is one of the colors on which chrome works well. I.e. with black grilles I feel there is not enough contrast, and not enough blending in (much like with Sparkling Graphite).

Spazdoc · 12-18-2011, 02:45 PM

Blacklines are almost a required option - I had them before I even took possession of the car.

E46 Thule rack modded to the E90.

Tallest · 05-21-2012, 04:41 PM

waited for a while but now that I had my car detailed, here are some garage shots of my Montego for the official color thread.

Debaged, clayed, polished and waxed on the weekend, including the window trim which was looking tired. OEM exhaust tips on the way (325i lacks them stock).

Just got my Montego/Black 6MT sedan 2 weeks ago. OEM blacklines and tint added this weekend:

Absolutely LOVE this color!

dmonnin · 11-18-2012, 05:28 PM

So does Montego look darker in person? Because different pictures show slight variations.
