Cirrusblau pic request

[Habs35]

I've been searching for an e30 for a while now, and I think I might have found a winner, finally. It is an '89 Cirrusblau 325i with a few mods, suspension, chip, coil wires, and short shift kit all on 135k miles. I haven't checked out yet, its 3 hours away, but it seems to be in great condition, minus a rip on the drivers seat.

Yet there is a problem, and for me it is a huge minus, that is the fact that it is blue. I hate every shade of blue imaginable, dark to light, my hate covers the whole spectrum! So what I need from you guys is some pictures of modified cirrusblau e30's in the hope that after seeing what the car could be, I will get over my hate enough to buy this car.

Right now the car is stock looking (read, no tint/wheels), except for the suspension. Ideally, I would like to see the color on bigger wheels and with dark tint. An IS lip would be awesome as well.

Thanks in advance!

A quick search will bring up many results. ;)

It's a nice color, one I'd consider for sure.

I agree, mines more of a charcoal gray almost, its sweet.

Don't bother with the three hour drive. It's not worth it. I just checked it out this evening with my brother.
It started out it's life in Jersey, which explains the rust. There is an area under the drivers taillight that has a bit of rust with some cracked bondo over part of it. There are a few more places of minor rust on the car, but the worst can be found when you pop open the trunk. There is a 2 inch rust hole at the opening of the trunk, next to the driverside quarter panel.
I hope that helps. I would hate to have driven 3 hours to find that car.

*EDIT* Also, The passenger power door lock does not work, and the AC has leaked all of its freon.

My car is supposed to be Arktisblau Metallic but looks to be Cirrusblau either cause of a repaint or it faded that much, it looks like more of a steel grey than anything, but is just plain beautiful after a good buff...even though mine will be repainted when i can find a place for paint...

Glestcherblau is a beuatiful color, shame on you.

I've got to admit, the color grew on me after looking at the pictures. Too bad the car I was looking at had some pretty bad rust. I still want an e30, but it looks like I'll be buying a '96 e38 from a local guy. I'm moving soon and need a car, so I'm going to pick this semi-project up and fix it up. It blows a little smoke due to a problem with a new head that was installed, but just about everything else was replaced within the last 10k miles. I've got to fix the head, color match the skirts, shadowline the trim, tint, wheels, and get new springs then I'll have a pretty sick 7 series I can turn around and sell. If you guys want I'll post some before pics when I pick it up.

Glestcherblau looks pretty damn nice. Also look into Lapisblau.
