Wow...that's a beautiful picture!

I love Atlantic Blue on cream, occasionally have a twinge of regret I didn't get it. I have a sneaking suspicion that it is a Rolls Royce color, it is exactly the same color you've seen on those Phaetons and Shadows through the years.

The Blue Water Metallic isn't a new color, my '05 X3 is BWM.

Yeah, Atlantic Blue does look like the same blue as on some of the RRs. Blue Water Metallic is nice too, but too light. It's not quite blue and not quite silver. I'd rather get TiAg than Blue Water.

I have AB... and do not regret it at all.... LOVE IT.
The issue with this color is that you love it or you hate it...

AZ, is that picture taken in Garmisch?

My only color regret is not figuring out ahead of time that I could have retrofit an anthracite headliner

If I knew then what I know now, I would have gone DGM on Saddle. Haven't seen the Tasman Green yet, though.

AB is gay.....

Not that there is anything wrong with that

Actually Aston Martin has this color on their Volante DB9 model, looks awsome

That is a great photo! I love the frozen flags, and the color of the sky, and the mountain horizon!!

Too bad there's a gay colored convertible in the shot! just kidding!

I saw an E92 that was Lemans Blue while in Germany. Thinking it was Montego, I went straight to my SA and told him to change the color to Sparkling Graphite. He asked why, I explained to him that the color was dull and not what I thought it would be. He pointed to a X3 or 5 and told me that was Montego. I was in love with the color.

I'm not sure what Lemans looks like in the sun, but on a cloudy day it's lame.

I will say I havent liked AW on a BMW in a long time till the E92 335 and M3 love it now.

Also loved it on the original E30 M.

Not a big fan of Atlantic Blue

Yo I don't know what you people are talkin about but that thing looks doooooope!

Anyone insecure enough to not drive it because the color looks gay is ridiculous. Good mods on that one above, classy but edgy.

i saw a AB coupe at my dealer yesterday for the first time... i thought it looked great!

newbieman78 · 11-17-2008, 01:37 AM

I get a ton of compliments on my crimson red. I've only seen one other crimson red 335i in last 1 year. I think I am the only guy in town with one. But man does it look HOT

Crown335xi · 11-17-2008, 03:56 PM

Deff a dope color but i am more of a dark tone kind of guy. If your flashy and u hook it up i can see it being pretty fresh. Also i saw some hot blonde chick driving one on the highway yesterday and that made me like it a lot more.
