A stupid vote, Is alpine white w/red leather interior make for a chick color!!!!!!

335i=:) · 07-02-2007, 06:22 PM

1. Really Girly

2. Neutrally girl/boy

3. Boy color

pxd · 07-02-2007, 06:25 PM

Boy for me.
I think red interior makes the car look much more aggressive, especially with white or black exterior color.
So yeah, I doubt it is a chick color combination.

Wow, odd question. White with a red interior is not girly at all.

kindtree · 07-02-2007, 07:04 PM

I'm not a fan of white, but I wouldn't say it's a girly color at all.... I like a red interior, but I think after a while it would just be too much for me. I'm more of a fan of Dove Grey

My '88 E30 is Alpine/Cardinal Red. Post pics later.

Well if it's pearl white and a crushed velour red . . . ; -)

atr_hugo · 07-02-2007, 07:50 PM

. . . you stole my mom's Oldsmobubble!!! ; -)

ibeam81 · 07-02-2007, 08:30 PM

I had this combo on a '84 E30 325e and I thought that it looked great.

ice13water · 07-02-2007, 09:34 PM

red exterior on anything but pretty much a ferrari is a girls color

Think I'll buy a red one! :biggrin:

ALpine white and black interior or brown interior.
Red is realy girlish.

rimmer · 07-03-2007, 05:14 AM

White with Red is really popular in the UK, we had an E92 M-Sport with that ombo and it looked the nutts!:roundel:

Maximus Decimus · 07-03-2007, 06:58 AM

I was originally interested in that exact combo on the E92, AW w/ coral. Funny enough women that I showed pics of it to, did not dig it at all. Red interior is very personal. If you like it, dude go for it. Personally I wouldn't care what anyone else thought (unless there were like a 1000 votes and they all said no). You're paying for it, get what YOU want.

Mike0105 · 07-03-2007, 09:27 AM

I happen to love red interiors. They look awesome with white, black and grey exteriors but a word of caution....they are also very hard to resell as red interior is really a love it or hate it type of affair.

Propagator · 07-03-2007, 09:35 AM

Umm.. so if all of us thinks it's girly, you're not going to get it?

I think it will look fantastic. I wouldn't say it's a macho combo, and I can also see girls digging it, but a striking combo nonetheless.

spudw · 07-03-2007, 10:20 AM

I voted girly, but a red interior with black exterior rocks for dudes...

Yes, a daring combo of Darth Vader meets Elvis in der Wiener Wald. My 1st choice. Darth/Darth combo is just too overdone- &
How much testosterone can can we pack into our bimmers?
I couldn't convince my wife to go that route on the current car- samo no doubt on the upcoming 1-er.
Domestic harmony argues for blue.

Haha...Brook, you crack me up man.

WolfsburgerMitFries · 07-03-2007, 07:06 PM

I think gender association is more about combining several factors of a car, than strictly color choice. White could be a girly color, but usually when its paired with a beige/tan/brown interior, but theres more to the equation. Small Convertibles tend to go be associated with females, so does the lowest trim package of any particular car. So for example, a white 128i non M-sport cabrio (especially an automatic) would almost certianly be a female driven car, but a white 135i M-sport coupe (especially a manual) would definitely be a guys car. Interior color, I think, would not matter anywhere near as much as the other factors.

krassanova · 07-03-2007, 10:37 PM

White with red interior would be killer. I was in my friend's Titanium Silver Metallic 335 Coupe with red interior and it was undeniably studly. White and tan? Now you are driving a chick car. Champagne and tan? You are a freak that wears green Alligator shoes with a matching belt.
