thinking about getting montego blue

enwhykiid · 07-18-2006, 03:33 PM

i live in the U.S so le mans is out of the question on the sedan, montego is the closest thing and it would be available to get on the new coupe so would any of you get this color, and if so what color interior goes best along with it? what are your thoughts on this color?

8 posts later and you've decided to trade your sedan for the coupe...

It'll be sad to see the sedan go.

But, from the pics I've seen Montego Blue is a beautiful color. It goes well with the sporty character of the coupe. Gor for it. If it's me I'd pick black leater/aluminum trim to go with it.

Its a wild color, so i would go with a wild interior, maybe coral red or saddle brown

enwhykiid · 07-18-2006, 03:50 PM

ive had the 330xi for a while and i just newly discovered e90post but the coupe just looked stunning i had to order it

enwhykiid · 07-18-2006, 03:56 PM

the thing is coral red would completely contradict the montego and it isnt a valid combination according to BMW--which i do agree with, i could go with the saddle but i was thinking of something light like the grey with aluminum or go more elegant with the light burl

montego blue is absolutely gorgeous... I saw the new Z4 in it yesterday...

Very similar color to lemans...

get cream beige with gray polar that will look hot.

I think brown interiors always look rich with a blue exterior, but if you're unsure go with the black and aluminum, because then at least your interior will match fully.

I'd definitely would buy it in Montego blue with my same gray combo.

Montego goes well with beige or grey leather. Interesting mix with saddle. I'm tempted to go Montego, beige 'ette, poplar. I want M-sport alcantara, anthracite headliner, etc., but I live on the wrong continent.

i was debating between jet black and montego for a while. ive decided to get the blue b/c its looks really different than the traditional silver/black bmw. im probably going to get black int with alum trim and chrome out the ZSP wheels.

As you can't get jade grey in the USA, go with normal grey and grey poplar.

Same dilema here.
Love the Montego..... just can't decide which interior goes best.
(def NOT saddle though)

Wish we could get Jade here
