well, there is that! It was the color that I wanted. I always had wanted an E36 M3 in that hue. I considered Imola, but that color is a bit outlandish for a SUV that I do use as a business car.

Nothing wrong with Lemans either - simply my favorite E39 M5 color and looks great on the X5 too. Especially if you can find one with the 2-tone white / black interior - that looks sweet inside a Lemans Blue X5.

but ya - something about that Estoril just pops in any light condition but especially in the sun. BTW - my kids don't like it - they say it's too flashy and bright. Nah!
