Space Gray not in its most flattering lighting condition

bearfoot · 04-22-2006, 10:47 AM

Does anyone know if space gray will also be available for the e90 in the future? This is the colour I would love to go for!

Bimmerforlife · 04-22-2006, 12:52 PM

I think this will be the next hottest color to buy. Space Gray. It's a little darker shade than titianium silver but not too dark that it will show dirt. I really like this color and hope they offer this on the E90 sedan in the fall. Nice color.

Jackbmw · 04-22-2006, 12:57 PM

It looks very similar to the Silver Gray which was offered in E46. I like such colors cause they're not too bright and too dark, and above all very sporty.

climkt · 04-22-2006, 12:57 PM

will all e92 coupes be sold as strict four seaters? tried looking for the spec sheet but only saw jason's pics with 2 rear seats and a big seat centre divider. a real shame if it cannot accomodate 5 passengers.

To me on this shot the "hood" looks more muscular and agressive than the E90 sedan?

Yes i believe they are different hoods and you will notice many differences in the car compared to the e90 because bmw wants to distinguish its coupe models from the sedan models. Even car size is different, with the coupe being longer then the e90's

The hood is more sculpted,
but don't let the cammo tape fool you in that pic

CALIF65GM · 04-22-2006, 03:34 PM

Nice color, but looks a bit too dark for my tastes though. I think it'll be very popular though.

sinister · 04-24-2006, 08:28 PM

Beautiful colour. Very similar to Silver Grey on the E46. But unfortunately this colour will very quickly be everywhere. Almost everyone will get it.

Sparkling Graphite is my colour, but it may be a bit dark for the E92, hiding all of its design cues.

climkt · 04-24-2006, 09:45 PM

very nice car. The e92 look seems to be growing on me everytime, i look at web pics. evokes nice memories of my coupe days in my UK e36 coupe.
wonder whether if i was looking for a new car this year, i will still get e90 , esp when i have the option of getting the new e92? TOUGH decision

Very good observation! I'll move those pics over here to the space gray thread. These pics shows it more likely to be space gray.

Attached below

stressdoc · 04-28-2006, 06:04 PM

I like the metallic match with the pearl grey trim. That 335 is hot. I hope space grey is an option for the E90, I think it's even better suited to a 4-dr.
Anyone have a comparison of Montego/ultramarine & Le Mans? Forgot to look to see if there is a Montego string yet.

stressdoc · 04-28-2006, 06:08 PM

Metallic tangerine on the E93 will be a sight.

Another mysterium,

I saw pictures of a 335I in Space Gray with this license plate, but with
type 230 rims. I'm a little confused, because in this car is the mysterious
leather upholstery colour mentioned in thread

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...&postcount=199

I can't believe BMW always uses the same license plate! Very strange!

If I was in charge of buying the seats for BMW I'd be furious over all the wrinkles on the side of the seats in the above pics...that looks BAAAAD.
