i love green

B50 · 06-11-2011, 05:29 PM

I have just got a TG one, its such a different and unusual colour....originally wanted an AW with Coral, but it seems everyone goes for this option.. it changes colour depending on the light ...

B50 · 07-16-2011, 01:01 PM

Love my TG 135i, no others like it. All you see these days are alpine and gunmetal, they look great but not individual.

Post some pics please

Not a 1er yet but some colors allow the owner to fly under the radar so to speak. The TGM is a very nice shade of green. Too bad it isn't available with the Chestnut Brown interior from the 3 series.

This colour works ..... cool to be different

B50 · 07-21-2011, 05:17 PM

Tried to send some pics ( outside McLaren in Woking ) but struggled , will have another go.

My girlfriend has a mercedes in this color and im ashamed to be seen riding in it..

What an old thread, however, I don´t have a coupe, but here´s my tahitigreen hatch

chris82 · 11-10-2015, 09:40 AM

Soooo rare and unique! I like it, the name is great too

dm874 · 11-11-2015, 10:19 AM

On a 128 TG looks old and dated yet on the 135 it actually works IMO....hm

Love everything about it other than the "illest" sticker.

GREAT color, would love to see one up close.

My tahiti green convertible with lemon interior will arrive in mid-may. I'll be posting some pictures then.

Rekindling the post here, but I latched into this TG Coupe about a year ago and am looking forward to getting a paint correction and protectant, seeing as this may be the only one in the US!

Matt@EuroJerks · 02-06-2020, 01:10 PM

That color with a suspension and wheels would be really nice.

True statement. This one was imported from Germany after being purchased/optioned/driven there. It's an N51 engine as well. Now has 63k miles on the odometer.

Got the Gunmetal Wheels on. (Niche Targa M129 17x8 with Dunlop SportMaxx 235/45/17)

Beautiful!

Always liked the right shade of green on a car. It's become pretty rare.

Previously had a 128i, 228i, M240i and now.. What to go back to the e82 chassis for something to pamper and tinker with.

If someone is thinking of parting with his Tahiti green, manual, e82... I'm looking for one! Hit me up!
