To make this post intercontinentally relevant :-

UK - Marmite = Marmite
Aus/NZ- Marmite = Vegemite
USA - Marmite = Dunkin' Donuts coffee

Basically you will either love it or you'll hate it! Personally I like it, like all of the above......well maybe the coffee is pushing it!

Check out this colour: http://veight.de/20120529/bmw-1er-m-...in-irie-green/

Painted in Irie Green color with 10mm spacers on rear wheels and Bilstein B16 PSS10 coilover suspension. Also has a lightweight titanium exhaust system.

Love Marmite!

But Marmite is Dark Brown in SA.

Ky1M · 07-06-2012, 10:30 AM

Now thats a great color to wake you up in the morning

I was thinking about doing my wheels that color for a minute.

Like the way the wheels are done, with the green band on the inside.

YoungGuns · 07-06-2012, 11:20 AM

I like the colour, imo a bit better than the individual colour lime green to roll of the production line a few weeks back. Still gutsy though!!

Vegemite is black/brown

I was referring to the taste. Some people love Marmite/Vegemite, some hate it. I think this colour is the same, it's a love/ hate not really an 'I'm OK with the colour, but prefer VO' for example.

If we're referring to the colour of Vegemite, BMW have released that already, it's Sepang Bronze

Powerbeast · 07-06-2012, 07:15 PM

I like it.

///M-Rat · 07-06-2012, 07:20 PM

wow, that'll slap your eyes together. Nice

danstel · 07-06-2012, 09:10 PM

that's a tasty green...looks pistachio to me as well...

1'M Blue · 07-06-2012, 10:51 PM

Looks nice and differant.

M3 Adjuster · 07-06-2012, 11:19 PM

I'd rock that.... NICE!

Exhaust sounds awesome...
