new color (blue) on my 1M

nyny · 01-09-2015, 02:11 AM

here it gets a kind of matt effect in this light:

on the last two pictures is a 135i parked with Le Mans Blue

What an Amazing color!!!

PS: We would love to see even more pics IF you have them. I especially liked the sunset pics that show off how electric(special) this blue really is.

Beautiful color. Wish all the photos would stay up.

Some better sunlight photos would be nice. Thanks for sharing.

I think this is the most eye catching blue ever from BMW. Looks awesome.

Dude this is the best looking 1M I have ever seen !!

Wanted a special (Individual) colour on mine when I ordered it. Impossible on the 1M they said...

We need to make pictures with my orange bigger sister, somewhere in Switzerland or on the Nurburgring !

Wow!!!

BLU135i · 01-14-2015, 11:29 AM

Looks great!!! To bad BMW did not offer the 1m with individual paint. Fantastic job and more pics please.

biglare · 01-14-2015, 11:33 AM

Nice color! Looks great on the 1M.

Your paint looks a little darker than Le Mans blue, but brighter than Interlagos. That's a pretty much spot description of San Marino, which you can see compared to Interlagos in this thread:

I absolutely love it! Le Mans is too light for my taste. My M3 is Interlagos, but the metallic only shows up well in the right light. San Marino has that deep purple-ish blue color, but the metallic lights up all the time. Great choice

Ray knight · 01-14-2015, 11:38 AM

That color looks amazing!! Why did you repaint it a different color though? Its a rare car and painting it a different color KILLS the resale value. I would hope you plan to keep it at least 10 more years. Is it still white underneath and under the hood?

ManofSteele · 01-14-2015, 11:41 AM

Nice choice! San Marino is an amazing color.

Saphirschwarz · 01-14-2015, 11:43 AM

Gorgeous.... maybe even better with some white coronas but still awesome !
