    What color is this e30?

    I love this color. At first I thought it was Delphin but now it seems a few shades to light, no? I checked out this colors page and it looks more like some of the lighter grays or even a dull silver. Thoughts?

      I guess. Still looks darker in the pictures but it could be cloudy vs sunny day affecting it. Thanks for your thoughts!

        Def not Delpin. I have that and it's much darker

        my vote is Lachssilber

            Yeah, this looks closer to Lachs to me now too. Sterling does look bright. Thanks for your opinions.

              Salmon metallic maybe... another gray-silverish BMW color...
              Salmon will have a metallic black flake in it.

                Hmmm, interesting. That may be a rare color, i don't think I've ever seen it

                    Lachssilber metallic = Salmon Silver metallic.
