(E90) Official Montego Blue E90 Thread

I saw that color before. That's not Montego blue, I think that one is Interlagos Blue for the M5 sedan.

I have a Montego Blue E90 335i on order (January delivery) that I've been debating interior colours on. Currently, it's set to be beige, but I've been considering Terra and Black.

I finally found an E90 in Montego blue today at BMW Autohaus in Toronto, and it looked fantastic.

Still stumped on the interior, but at least the colour itself looked incredible. I know alot of people aren't sure how it'll look on the sedan, but at least to me, it was perfect.

Go with Black. Mystic (similar) on black is one of my all time favorite combos.

Saddle Brown will be awesome with Montego.

Yes, but unfortunately we don't get saddle brown up here in Canada, just Terra.

stressdoc · 11-21-2006, 12:05 PM

Let me know if I can help with more photos, I have MB w/ beige. It's rather more a California look than a northern Germany style. Terra might be a bit on the earth-tone/brick side to match well. Tough call. Black & alu is the safe choice. Beige has a much lighter, airy feel.

Yes! I'd love to see shots of Montego with Beige. The more shots showing both the better.

Please!

Which is even better yet!

Sky Keeper · 11-21-2006, 08:12 PM

I've seen one today - pictures don't tell the whole story. On all photos it looks the same simple blue color, but in fact it's much darker with a shade of purple or red when lighting is poor and much brighter without any hint of red in direct sun-light or when it's partly-cloudy.

Hey Stressdoc...I'd be interested in seeing more photo's of your car. especially if you have any shots where you can see both interior and exterior colors at the same time. I've decided on the Montego Blue, but still uncertain what interior color I like best with it. Only a few members show the ext and int in the same shot.

Will do this weekend. Black & Alu is probably the best choice. Beige is OK -- especially if you want wood trim or a lighter look. Grey OK, can't say for terra. Oops, forgot, lemon is pretty cool looking with Montego.
