The fog has lifted in the Tron, so my Estoril and Topas Blues are out, plus I have a growing liking of Oxford Green...

Lots of good ones but Delphine Metallic is one of my favorites, nicely balanced. Colour palette for the older models was impressive, it seemed to have to dwindled over time.

For me different cars look better in some colours compared to others, for example a white E30 looks nice and crisp whereas a white X5 looks like a fridge.

So I would say the best E30 colour is Dolphin Grey.

I had to google Delphine. Well presented E30s look great in that color.

Well I'm biased but certain shapes look best dressed in certain colours E39, Orient Blue Metallic and Stirling grey metallic and the E60 looks great in Olivin Green metallic

Techno violet and Laguna seca 

 

Depends hugely on the car model though. Ive seen e39’s in both techno violet and laguna seca and it didn’t look right. E36 look great in TV and e46 +f13 look great in LSB

Love my Orient Blue E46, but favorite colours that feel iconic to me would be:

Estoril blue on an E36 M3

Delphin Grey(?) on an E30 mtech 2 coupe

BMW Imperial Blue is such a good looking colour, I don't think there is any BMW that doesn't look nice in it. Also, cannot be paired with black trim.
