![]() ![]() ![]() If I was a betting man...I'd put my money on that most BMWs that have stripes applied to them will 99% of the time be a model that has a 1, 2, 3, or 4 in its nomenclature (or it's a MINI ). This applique of stripes usually isn't something BMW owners with larger vehicles are into (5/6/7/X5/X7)...so you're probably not going to find a lot of example. But again, if you do a search for 1, 2, 3, 4 series BMW w/stripes...you'll probably find what you're looking for. ![]()

It ia. 2000 Oxford Green. I checked the VIN. I learned later that it belonged to a jeweler from the area. Haven't seen it many years.

Good god.
For those in the know was it the e36 LTW that started this? It worked on that car. |

Back in the 70's it was rumored that stripes such as those shown would make a car at least 10 mph faster than those without.
I'm not sure now if that was only in the mind of the owner.

Stripe pics
The stripes could definitely slow a vehicle by increasing the drag coefficient, but they can also act as a good bug deflector
