Ok everyone, am ordering my 1 series this weekend, torn between Sedona Red and the Montego Blue (which has not been ordered at the dealership yet), and wanted to see pictures or hear what interior people are putting in their Montego Blue. Black, beige with wood, etc?

Tinting makes it look so much more sporty. I'm definitely getting mine tinted right away.

Is That not LeMans Blue?

I'm beginning to warm up to Montego Blue, however, I have Never seen one at a dealership, and probably never will. Here in the States we cannot get that LeMans Blue which many seem to say is prettier than Montego, but most cannot even tell the difference? Is there any way to tell what color this is? This color here I am looking at <above> is really beautiful... But, is it Montego??? or Not?

So, my final question... Does anyone have a LeMans / Montego [side by side] comparison? That's probably TOO much to ask, right. But, maybe someone has already done this comparison, if so, point me to it. :smile:

Marty

Still sold on Jet Black w/Lemon (but, this blue must look nice with lemon too... I think?) :wink:

In a lot of these pictures the color looks very much like a bright, candy blue. Mine in person looks exactly halfway between purple and blue. I like it, but was definitely surprised.

Yes, it was 20% actually. I had the front redone at 35% because I received 3 tickets within two weeks of putting it on.
