Rather loving Alpine White

gtsussex · 06-17-2014, 10:23 AM

Have to say, Alpine White has really grown on me in my last two days of having this loaner.

Don't get me wrong, love my MG but quite a big fan of AW now.... really suits the car and obviously it's got Coral Red inside

Its very nice indeed. But like my black, nice for the 5 minutes that it is clean!!!

AW is so easy to keep IMO. Patched up lots of little marks myself and 'white' T cut works like magic. The opposite of black of course and .... free to all 4 cylinder fans.

With an M Sport rocking High Gloss Shadowline its the best in BMW...but I've had 2 in a row so 3 is pushing it.

I may go for white next time, I had one on loan for over a month in the winter and it actually looked fairly clean even though the weather was horrible, much cleaner than my EB, and white seems to hide the imperfections more which is the main reason I would choose it

+100

Why ever is MW not available on M Sport when it is on non M Sport!?

I had an AW 320d and thought it looked amazing at night under petrol station lights! It didn't reward as much as other cars for those who like to spend some time detailing though.

It hid stone chips and swirls well though!

We went with white after visiting the dealers to discuss the order and seeing a white one in the showroom. Walked in thinking "blue, black or grey" walked out with white

Had a mineral white M3 in recently. Some kind of 500 special edition. OMG it was delicious...
