    best color on 4 doors?

    I have a cirrusblau 4 door and the paint is seriously lacking. With a tan interior what color would look best if I get this painted? Oem colors preferred.

    Please, please please keep it cirrusblau! One of my favorite E30 colors. It will look minty with a proper respray.

      Yeah, come ON! I actually came in here to suggest cirrusblau.

      Check this thread for some pictures of my car with a recent cleaning. It's not new paint or anything, but I think the color comes out well: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=306478

            A fresh coat would look even better because I'm sure my car has lost some of the blue hue over the years. It's a rare color and one of my favorites, definitely keep it.

                I think Delphin metallic would.be ready nice too, but it would probably need a black interior to match.
