I have a blue Estoril but if you want one of the colors mentioned above I would suggest grey or white. The black is aggressive but it's not the right color in my opinion. You take a black car when it's ugly (usually) or when you want to "hide" his size. In a such a sexy shape with nice muscular surfaces it would be a shame not to show them because of the color.
I would take mineral grey with black leather interiors and black alumminium trim ;-)

Black is awesome it shows taste. Why do woman wear black cloths if they don't want to show off their figure. Come on a white or black fitting dress.

Grey is undecided and it's a just colour, it comes and goes.

White and black never dates.

Yes I am indeed.

I'm in Cabo San Lucas Mexico until the end of August so have heaps of free time to post. Picking up my new 116i M Sport 3rd September back in Auckland which is totally blacked out. White was a big seller for 5 years but black is back and second hand black BM's never sit long in the car sales yards.

White, black, silver and grey are not really colours, they are all on the grey scale. This is all about taste, but there are also some practical issues to consider. White and black cars will look dirty very quickly, while grey and most colours will hide more dirt. Black cars will also look scratched very quickly. It is a nightmare to avoid it, with very special washing procedures.

I've owned a black Z4 and it stayed looking great for the 3 years I owned it. I never polished the Z just use hand wash/wax solution once or twice a month.

No more? I thought it was still available, but just never made with the steering wheel on the "right" side.
