    Help me decide.- White E30....to do ,or not to do?!

    I might be comming into possesion of a White 318i. Im not really a fan of white, but it looks nice somtimes , take Victells car with the Ronalls on, looks awesome.

    It would be nice if people could post some pictures of white E30's, with or without kits, US, Euro etc (Im from the UK so id be buying one without us bumpers etc, but it would still be nice to see how some people mod them)


    Hopefully if im convinced i could get the car!

    Cheers

      My current and last E30 have both been Alpineweiss in color. Some folks have been critical of it, but what is most important is how YOU think it looks. Its your car my friend, a statement about your taste/style. If you like the way it looks, then the most important goal has been met.

      I like the white color because it doesn't show dirt as easily and blemishes don't readily jump out at you. Plus if the clear coat is a little tired (perhaps oxidizing), it won't be nearly as noticable as it would be on dark colored cars. Another reason I like the white color is that its understated.....its not a color that jumps out demanding attention. This is a real plus if you tend to drive with a heavy right foot :twisted:

        You might want to head down to meineke, I think you've got an exhaust leak into the cabin.

          White is not among my favorite E30 colors, yet some of my favorite E30's are white (James', Mtriples', and a few others). I could go either way with it.

            It wasn't my first choice while I was shopping, but I love it. It looks real good. Don't not buy an E30 because it is white. James' car is freakin hot and its white.

            Here is a link to a pic of my car (and a plug for someone to do a sig for me please):

                Cheers for the replies.I might have made it a bit confusing first off, i dont dislike white, but im sure youll agree theres always a favorite colour with cars.And i guess i cant get it right everytime. I do like white when its really clean, and with the right wheels,body etc, (Victel,Qimis) then it can look really nice as a lot of people dont mod white cars.

                DarkWing6 it would be nice to see some other pictures of your car.

                Cheers

                    If its a clean paint job I wouldnt complain, I think that the color looks awesome, but i then again I havent seen one thats white with diving boards.

                          Yo thats my ride. The really only aftermarket thing are my Hartge wheels. I love white especially when its clean. Black would be hot but the "white bean" I own will suffice.

                              I think they look nice, but have fun keeping it clean.
