Bimermanman · 09-10-2008, 10:48 AM

I have a montego blue e92, but every time I see atlantic blue on the road, I regret not getting atlantic blue

smallseafishie · 09-10-2008, 10:49 AM

Atlantic blue?

Ehhh

Montego is much better.

:-)

We looked at Atlantic and order Montego and I am happy I did - Atlantic is a little to girly in my book - my wife liked it, but I just could see myself driving a car that color!

akack79 · 09-10-2008, 12:07 PM

Hell no, and yes I have seen AB in person as well.

BradF · 09-10-2008, 12:44 PM

Montego rocks! Atlantic Blue is too Volkswagen EOS !!!!!!!

You are so right - after reading that I realized it is the same color as half of the EOS's you see, making it a super girly color!

Chitown-Irish · 09-10-2008, 01:44 PM

No regret.

uwhusky · 09-10-2008, 01:45 PM

HELL NO!!!

Have AB. Love it. No regrets at all. Get more compliments on the color than on the car itself, including from my SA

Sorry you made the wrong choice

noro · 09-10-2008, 03:43 PM

I like AB as well. My favorite BMW color of all time is the silverstone that came on E39 M5s and it looks pretty close to AB

mkoesel · 09-10-2008, 03:57 PM

Montego FTW.

The new Blue Water looks a lot more like Silverstone than Atlantic Blue does IMHO.

cn555ic · 09-10-2008, 04:04 PM

This is the first time ever seeing a thread like this...Really can't compare Montego to Atlantic Blue...Its night and day...Sorry for your regrets, but I think your nuts!

yes I agree.

If you modify an Atlantic Blue car, it stands out more than a stock Atlantic Blue.

With all do respect, being a man, i'd never associate myself with that color. ever. Did I say ever ?

Put rims, put exhausts, do what you want ... your driving a baby blue car afterall

Hey man, I appreciate the comments and feedback.

But it takes balls to be different man.

And it takes balls to not care what other people think.

Btw, my ex-girlfriend picked the stupid color and now I'm friggin stuck with it.

Oh well, sh*t happens.

nicknaz · 09-10-2008, 08:20 PM

IMHO atlantic blue = baby blue = girl color?

The worse possible use of atlantic blue type color is on a mini cooper.. especially in san francisco.......

And what do all the psychiatrists on the board have to say about this comment?

yoyeewee · 09-10-2008, 09:03 PM

I guess I'm a girl.

CALIF65GM · 09-10-2008, 10:03 PM

Nope AB is way too light of a blue for me.

As soon as I saw that MB was coming out on the e9x, I knew that would be my next color.

Year's_End · 09-10-2008, 10:30 PM

AB is just the color I would never pick. It's not silvery/light enough, like SSII, and it's not blue enough, like Montego.

Honestly, I don't care much for Montego. I LOOOOOVEEEE LeMans blue though. Montego looks very basic, like a Crayola color or something. It just looks too flat.

Year's_End · 09-10-2008, 10:31 PM

Then again, I am drivin a freakin grey car so who am I to say what's too flat and what isn't. I wish I'd opted for sparkling graphite.
