The BMW itself is hideous enough. The colour just makes it a double whammy.

Color may be ugly but those rims do make the car look sexy!

It's an old color from the 70's called: Chili Grey (Non Metallic Paint)

The Champion car is a mon-metallic cool gray. Actually looks intriguing, and quite nice. The 997, on the other hand, would be a perfect promo car for a certain long-established restaurant in Solvang (if you Calif folks know what I mean).

Mainly, to each his/her own. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Do you think he/she is color blind?

It looks nice to me, to each his own.

That Turbo looks like it's from McKenna Porsche which is not too far away from me...maybe I'll go check out in person but right now it doesn't seem that appealing...

You should have seen their blue 997 turbo a couple weeks back. I forgot the name but it was a borderline color, I'll see if I have pics.

Seems that McKenna Porsche is doing paint to samples on all their non customer ordered cars for the 997 turbo....

I just realized what it needs! Some black steel wheels with runflats, two .60 cals mounted on top and some steel plating on the windows and send that **** to Iraq. It's already military olive green, it will blend perfectly.

That is a 356 color. I restored a 64 that was that color. It is not bad in person, but you have to like the off the beat stuff.
