looking at it again would you say it's metallic or solid, there are quite a few shades of orange

Those of us who went to SpaItalia 2009 will confirm the Lambo orange is a very good looking colour on the Coupe. Does anyone have any pictures?

Hmm, an orange LE!
Yum!
Anyway JKD, I thought Porto was the best colour in the world, ever? Thats the impression I've got from your previous posts!
If you do get this done, it will look damn fine for sure!

Porto is indeed the best standard colour. Orange could turn out to be the best non standard colour. I want to make the Coupe look more exotic and I think that with a Cada or PIU front bumper and black alloys it would work.

I might have a picture, ill take a look in my Spa folder when i get home. I thought it was a French member JKD, so you might try the french forum?

"Porto is indeed the best standard colour.

I concur...both with dark alloys & side repeaters of course. If non-standard colours are a concern, may be a compromise could be to use the Fiat Barchetta orange paint? That's the direction I'm heading in, once the porto becomes too scruffy.

JKD you will have to watch the lowering with the cada.
Just been to my garage i use for a pre mot check this morning and can't get it in, I have standard shocks with eibachs on front and fk springs on rear, which I fitted about a month ago, after that picture was taken.
Sure cowboy has a cada but he runs bilsteins and standard springs, I'm pretty sure.
Imo, that would look different but very nice, would like to see it in the flesh, seen an orange one before in Glasgow but it had a bonnet scoop

Orange+black = to much contrast , athracite would be nicer. I love that BMW , it looks different in orange
