The three traditional and completely correct BMW Motorsport colors are:

Pantone Process Blue (PMS 859)
Pantone Violet (PMS 268)
Pantone Warm Red (PMS 836)

Some people choose a dark blue like Reflex Blue (PMS 852) to replace Violet 268 and a darker red.

BMW (approximate and/or accepted equivalent) colors:

Light Blue GLASURIT-BMW 5002
Blue Violet GLASURIT-BMW 4000
Red GLASURIT-BMW 353

Did you know....

The Blue is obviously the Bavaria Blue in the Flag of the region, the Red was/is actually the Texaco who sponsored BMW back in the 70's. The Purple was decided the colour that blended the two nicely and the M-Power stripes were born.

you can order the exact colors from a paint place that can get Dupont - they are the US arm of Glasurit paint.
Far more common is PPG, but they can't mix those exact colors I had to work with my local store to get really close colors using the computer and colorbooks.
