Lime Green 1M Coupe - Love it or Hate it?

tim330i · 07-17-2012, 10:50 AM

The actual color is Irie Green but it looks limey to me. In addition to the custom paint job this BMW 1 M Coupe sports blacked out wheels, 10mm spacers, Bilstein B16 PSS10 coilovers and a titanium exhaust! The owner has more in store for this love or leave it 1M with BMW Performance seats, front carbon fiber splitter and rear carbon fiber diffuser.

Love the photoshoot and the uniqueness of it. I would have gone a different route but to each their own.

peytonracer4 · 07-17-2012, 12:01 PM

Would love to have that in my garage.

e46mook · 07-17-2012, 02:52 PM

That car is perfect in that color, wow

dji203 · 07-17-2012, 09:53 PM

I would've done a wrap job instead but looks nice either way.

The body is matte, the trunk and rear are glossy, I hate the body kit but I love the color.... Overall I don't like it

jabast09 · 07-18-2012, 12:09 PM

Awesome color

ImSoFreaknWhite · 07-18-2012, 12:22 PM

definitely love it

B_Cyrus · 07-18-2012, 12:24 PM

seems like BMW is trying to make the 1M a "classic" by using this color... similar to the dakar M3's.

Beautiful

Before I opened the thread: hated it
After I opened the thread: loved it

It's one of those colors that only really works on aggressive looking cars. It works here.

I think this looks very aggressive! Love it.
