Help with a Color

I would like to see a LeMans Blue M5 up close and in the sun. I saw it at the LA Car Show but the light was very poor. If you live in the greater LA or Orange County or San Diego areas I would love to see your car.

Let me know if you want to show it off. I am trying to make up my mind before my build date comes up. My only other option might be Imola Red.

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,

I'd be glad to let you have a closeup and give you a ride in my Imola BEAST next time you come to Houston? Let me know a few days in advance so I can plan to meet you!

Mark,

I saw that Beast at the L.A. car show too. I think it looks absolutely gorgeous!! Even with all the different colours to enjoy at the Driving Experience in Spartenburgh, LeMans blue is my favourite now.

P.S.
Hi Andy from Texas!! Remember me, from your first M5 Driving Experience class?? Sandy, the little Chinese girl who kicked butt in the auto-cross!!

Sandy,

Do you own a LeMans Blue? If so, I would like to see it out in the sun. Let me know.

Sorry Mark, no LeMans Blue. How about titanium silver/silverstone interior?

Are you coming out for the drive on Sunday?

BTW, is Andy not checking this thread anymore?
