Lovely. I would like to see the Individual Moonstone colour in real life to fully appreciate it. All Individual colours look more stunning in real life than can be captured by photographs.

Those photos are nice but its way better in person. I saw 2 different moonstone M6 carbios in Germany last September (one at the Welt and the other in Garching).

Stunning color. Like liquid metal. Not at all harsh like Brilliant White metallic. Its almost a pearl but with more silver.

Congratulations (you lucky Canadian, whoever you are) on a stunning M3.

That color really is stunning. Even in the pictures you can see the depth and complexity that moonstone metallic has compared to other shades of silver paint that BMW prodcues. i just wish I could see it in person to appreciate the color to it's fullest.

Hello From Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada
I am the owner of the M3 in the photos. I have to say that Moonstone has exceeded my expectations as far as colours are concerned. I love the colour change effect that Moonstone has but also love the fact that it is not "LOUD" while doing the colour change.

I am flattered that Gustav posted my photos on your board and am also flattered by all of the nice compliments.

Please stay tuned, I will post some better shots in a little while.

Welcome!

We are looking forward to the more pictures. As you can see we have seen Moonstone on a M5 and that looked spectacular and Im happy to see a M3 Sedan in Moonstone: my favourite M3.

The BMW U.S. website now has the "Build your own" option for the new 750 and Individual paints (including moonstone) and interiors can be selected. Looks like more moonstone cars might be heading our way! Fabulous color.

7-series (at least the older) was open to Individual in the USA. As well as 6-series but no other cars.

Right, but now its an online option from the bmwusa.com website and shows the "standard Individual" paints and leathers and pricing in the "Build Your Own" functionality. That's new.

I sat in a new 750i at the dealership the other day. I like..... (but then I used to have a 2002 745i).
