Trying to decide between titanium or mystic blue. My car is for september production although i would like to see a mystic blue in person i cant. Does anyone have any links to some other BMW models in mystic blue, maybe this can help me decide.

you had better like blue 'cause it is an in your face colour. Nice, I personally feel it suits a coupe more than a sedan.

You might try checking around your local BMW dealerships to find out if any of them still have 2005 cars around in Mystic. I saw E46s in that colour at several dealers in my neighbourhood before ordering my E90 in Mystic and I thought they looked pretty sharp. Better to see the colour in the flesh but you might also find a picture by looking up dealer inventories of E46's on the internet. I think Mystic was also a 5 colour but I am not sure about that.

TiAg all the way. Its classic Beeemmer and much much better for resale. Its also the best color for hiding swirls and imperfections.

Hello E90Fleet. I think the photos might show why a buyer should try to see an actual car if at all possible. To me, the rear view on the right shows a totally different colour than the front view on the left. Going only from memory now, I think that Mystic is actually somewhat brighter (louder?) than any of the photos show on my monitor. I think maybe the accuracy of the colour shown will depend on the lighting conditions under which the pictures were taken, the camera used to take the pictures, post processing used on the images and the monitor used to view the pictures - errors can be introduced at any stage. The best example of how lighting makes a difference is Monaco which is a fantastic deep blue in bright sunlight but looks like just another humdrum black car on dull days.

Mystic Blue all the way.
Silver is rather boring *yawn* but to each his/her own.

I saw an E60 in Mystic Blue. It looked rather dark.

Yes, it is always best to see it in real life, and under different conditions.

A family member has a Mystic Blue E46 and it can look very dark in the shade and a lot lighter in the sun

The pic of the nose of the E91 is pretty accurate on my screen

The easiest at the moment would be to go out and find a E46 in Mystic to have a look at it

Just as a side not, I saw a E90 tet body in Mystic blue when I was at the factory and it looked very good
