Mint green interior

I wonder (if anyone know) how many M5 E34 which were produced with mint green interior? If anyone got pictures from an interior in mint green I would appreciate if I could see them.

Errrrr that picture of the mint green is actually quite nice.

In reality and with daylight, the interior is bloody awful IMHO.

Ashok Arora: Is that mint-green? I wonder if it looks nice in leather in a M5 E34? Maybe it will not look nice, or what do you think?

How much can that have cost to order when the car was new? It must be a "Sonderwunsch", special order from the buyer the year when the car was new. Itīs good and interesting to buy a car with special equipment, but it must be nice to enjoy the it too.

Does anyone have a "Fahrzeugdaten" with the mint-green interior from a M5 E34? It would be good to see how it looks when the owner has made a special order from the factory.

The mint green I saw in the E34 M5 was a car I actually went to look at to buy some years back. Sorry I don't have a picture for you.


That interior was limited to the orrible Green LE's. I guess they felt compelled to furnish the car with an interior just as bad.

While the Rosso Red with Champagne was BMW's finest hour (Mac, Steve 2003), the green was their worst. Friday afternoon, led by a colour blind stylist me thinks.

Just as well they kept it to the 25


regards

UK LE E34 M5 25 + 25

ok, M5powered, you don't like the ORINOCO (green) and perhaps
in daylight the interior looks different, fact is though that taste is
different, myself wud -as u- rather prefer the ROSSO RED + champagne interior but others might like the greenish, why not ?
ORINOCO was an Individual-colour choosen by many -
M5_Schnitzer, yes I hv a -Fahrzeugdaten-sheet for these RHD-cars
BUT they were NOT special customer order BUT a limited edition
of 25 made by the factory to identical specifications without a customer order - a huge risk to take if M5powered's opinion is common
Ashok, 'that's what I call green' = looks blue to me but it might
be my PC colour quality ?? -
b.t.w. someone just ordered a brand new E46 330i-convertible
in ORINOCO after a long struggle to get this particular colour
(u know who u are !)

UK LE E34 M5 25 + 25

I have to say that I agree with M5Touring on the colour issue. I am (hopefully as this is my first post) inserting an interior shot of a '95 LE M5 I was checking out for purchase. You can see that it isn't anywhere near as bright a "blue" as Ashok's interior above!! Well you could if I could work out how to get the jpg up here. I only have it saved in a directory. Techno-******! Anyone able to give me a quick instruct??

Whilst the exterior is ORINOCO Green, the interior is actually a "Bicolor Petrol and Mint extended leather interior with graphite bird's-eye maple wood trim."

You can see the info on this at this link....
