Mehhh.... Of course it only makes sense on an outrageous car, but even then I wouldnt own one. Fine for others, not me. Dont know how you could do anything with that one but track it.. Most people I know average 5-10 mph above the speed limit when on the road.. good luck with gettin away with that with that retina cooker... My biggest ho hum about THAT particular car is that for a "special edition" they didnt add anything you couldnt somehow get with the M3 already besides the crazy color. When they filmed the promo vid for it at Lime Rock I asked Bill Auberlin, if HE liked the color. He said"sure". When I asked him if he had bought, HOW LONG he thinks he would like the color all he could muster was "uummmmm".... LOL... Congrats to my buddy John Barber III for the special recognition from BMW though, would make sense if they would gift him one.

Like others said, it all depends on the car. Generally I like them a little darker or more "metallicy" like the GM orange colors, for instance the Brazen Orange Metallic GTO's looked good to me:


I still don't know if I would personally buy one, all of my cars have been black or silver with the most outrageous choices being blue, but I still think it looks good on some cars. That particular BMW isn't necessarily my cup of tea in that color, it's a little too "vitamin c" to me, but I like the car itself.
