What Color Is This??

In the listing it says it's dark blue, and I can't tell if they're just using a shitty camera or the lighting is bad but I just can't tell which blue it is. Looks purple-ish to me Anyone know?

Oh alright. I was trying to search the forum for different shades of blue and couldn't find it. Thanks.

BMW only offers 4 blues in the US for the E90 and E92 in 2006, 2007 and 2008 (excluding M3)...Atlantic Blue, Mystic Blue, Montego Blue, and Monaco Blue.

Monaco Blue is the darkest of the 4 colors. In some situations, it actually looks black.

Anyone know what that Montego looks like. Sounds like it might be interesting.

Did some quick research on it...

http://www.autotrader.com/dealers/dd...C&cardist=5763

It says dark blue there, but I only looked up that page for the last 7 of the VIN. After getting the last 7 I found this-

Interior Trim Code: LCAD (Gray Dakota Leather)
Exterior Color Code: A35 (Monaco Blue Metallic)


mbmbm&w- Montego blue is the color of the car in my sig

Come now, be nice. These guys obviously aren't smart enough to figure out what's going on here.
