I had Estoril Blue on my M Roadster, man I loved that color. Estoril Blue is much lighter.

DANG I miss that car!

Funny, the more I look at it the more it looks like LeMans Blue. The saturation of color fits the bill.
No matter- a great color- and really shows off how muscular the 1-ers lines are.
I love the way the 1-er sits on the road- incredible balls-out authority for a small car.

Not sure if that's Montego Blue or not. Looks close.

I've seen a 3er with LeMans Blue over Coral Red leather, and let me tell you, it looked niiiiiiiice.

It'll be interesting to see MB on the 135i....
With the 335, I always thought it showed better in pics than it did in person.

On a smaller car like the 135i, it may just work though.

You're right, MB does not look to good in the E90 (sedan).

LeMans or Montego, I like both. I've seen some E9x cars here in Montego and love it. I had a '99 M3 in Estoril Blue, so I'm biased toward those types of blues.

This may be a bit more of a "personal preference" combo, but I really like it. Found this pic on e90post.com:

I think I just wet my pants!!! My God that's the color I want it in. Besides a certain girl I know says the color's just hot. Well whatever she says goes for me I guess. But man that color really does as like someone else mentioned bring out the lines of the 1-er. And it really has a demanding presence. The one other vehicle that has such a presence in my opinion is the Rolls Royce Phantom.
