Factory Mint Green E36 M3

spaghettiM3 · 10-08-2019, 10:10 AM

Love it but it'd be much better as LHD.

classyfast · 10-08-2019, 11:03 AM

I would take this e36M over any BMW made the last 10 years!

Trends are cyclical as well 👍

i've never gotten so many compliments on my techno violet e36.

Unique. I like this color on the porsche 964

Looks like it's for sale as well

Left hand drive!

My gosh. Would love to see this next to my E92! I'm very curious of an E46 was ever produced with the color. Very exciting to learn of the E36's 🙂

ADEe92 · 10-11-2019, 05:50 PM

Not feeling it... but I'd take Dakar Yellow or Estoril Blue any day of the week

The e34 540i looked pretty good in Techno Violet.

Hopefully from rite aid (Thirfty's)

Fritzer · 10-13-2019, 04:08 PM

Very cool. Love rare, individual stuff like this.

delrosa81 · 10-13-2019, 07:49 PM

While I'm not a fan of such colors, it is encouraging to see BMW has the individual program already since the E36 era and there were actually customers that customised their cars in such loud manner back then. To see such a pristine example of bmws in this era, especially an individual car is simply mind blowing. From where I am, cars of this era would most probably have been scrapped and crushed ages ago given the 10 yr lifespan dictated by the government here. Beautiful example!

Completely agreed. A lot of non of my car friends love my E36 just because it's a Techno Violet. Don't know, and couldn't care less about the rest of the car haha.

Hell, Boston Green was also a great color!

MParallel · 10-14-2019, 10:36 AM

The E36 had some really iconic color.

Daytona Violet
Techno Violet
Dakar Yellow I/II
Estoril Blue
Avus blue
Imola Red
Fern Green

Maybe I'm wrong but I think that you forgot Santorin Blue

MParallel · 10-22-2019, 09:55 PM

Didn’t forget as it’s an Individual color.

Sammyzuko · 10-22-2019, 09:55 PM

I'm late to the party, but here's a section on the idividual program from a 90s BMW brochure.

BMWjogga · 12-16-2019, 02:51 AM

the other one was bougth from Germany to Sweden this summer.

bimmerjake · 12-16-2019, 02:51 AM
