      I don't think its a factory e30 color. Looks to be between Delphin and lachs

        Not sure the actual paint number, but just ask for "Sexy" at the paint counter.

          I feel like it's closer to Nogaro, but it's not quite right either.

              That color doesn't have any metallic in it.
              The e30 in the pic above it does

                I'd say you have a solid case of 'Silver, dark' right there.

                  space gray?



                  It's hard to really tell the exact color of any metallic silver/gray from a picture because they tend to pick up the color of the things around them.

                    My thoughts exactly. It is reminiscent of my Delphin Grey E30 coupe, but not exactly there. I bet it would look amazing with a Cardinal interior!

                        Could be, but my vote still would be on lachssilber. Lachs can look quite dark depending on lighting and it is an indoor shot.

                        Eg:

                            It's way more "silver" than lachs
