Amazing.

WOW!!!!!! Yes, this ^

I want to throw on my best suit, buy a hat and grab nice smoking pipe, throw some Grey Poupon in the dash just in case and experience this.

There is no current Techno Violet.
We are still waiting for someone to verify what that color is.

Nice cars. Big ups to the older guy with the young trophy wife in the pink dress.

She's pretty nasty from the other side.
Those two rock hard softballs she has bolted on to her chest are disgusting. 1000% turnoff.

Back to the purple M4! What color is that?

More pics of the tan brunette with the backless fuchsia colored dress!

That's interesting. I thought they discontinued it. I think I recently came across a thread of an m3 that was in Daytona violet or something like that. It was an individual color but Bmw painted it. Maybe that???

You can still order: Techno Violet II as a Individual paint code.

Smyoung335 · 06-17-2016, 04:40 AM

you just made my day. Lol. And also my next Bmw

Blksnowflake,

That is what I would do. The magazine I write for is sending me to Monterey this August and I cannot wait.

I will be wearing Brunello Cucinelli there and I am attending Legends of the Autobahn, BMW Festorics and the big one on Sunday.

The Pebble Beach Concours. I am still contemplating what to wear to it, but it will be elegant and sophisticated with a dash style.

I would say the same thing about going to Lake Como.

Wear something simple and elegant and the kicks must be top notch!

Do you have any proof? Techno Violet has been repeatedly (and quite famously) denied for quite a few years now by Individual.

MSCD · 06-18-2016, 12:08 AM

Dackel, just awesome, fantastic! From the Escort to the Bertone (I have a book from the 80's with that in it) to the Aston Martin Zagato. I wish that Techno Violet was available. My dad has an MSport 328 convertible E36 and my mum had the 318ti both in Techno Violet - love that colour with the black leather.

Such an amazing back drop for very beautiful cars.... I watched Jay Leno's garage with super (and a mega car) whilst going through these photos. A fun car filled evening!

cruise_bone · 06-23-2016, 03:56 PM

Is this M4 vert Venetian Violet?

Here are some pics to compare. Let the guessing begin.

I don't think so. The M4 vert looked like a much darker color to me. Even the next day when I went to the show. I should have taken a 2nd batch of pics, but I didn't since it was mid day and so sunny.

^^That is the free newspaper, handed out at the show. It always features stories on BMW's concept car highlights and other high profile cars shown at the concours.
