Priced below KBB, doesn't say anything about maintenance. Alcantara looks nice! What's up with that shift knob, what kind is it?

[Avetiso]

Looks like a standard 330ci shift knob.

No longer listed...

[E_Rak]

Still up for me. I've heard a few wonky stories about that place... namely that there is a $2,000 markup above all their listed prices for "expected trades"

[Vas]

Would be awesome if the dealership didn't give off a shady vibe.

NO way that car is blue. ALso not in the registry. I'd suggest if you find one w/ a vin to add it. http://www.zhpregistry.net/

YES way that car is blue. It's Monaco Blue, not Orient. So, even rarer.

OK, I registered it as such: Total VINs matching your criteria: 1

VIN Check confirms: MONACOBLAU METALLIC



I don't like it. I mean, I thought OB was a little dark, but this might as well be black considering you'd need full sunlight directly hitting the car to see blue.

[Vas]

Perfect for people that like black but want it to look different with the sunlight i guess.

I like rare colors though.

[ELCID86]

I think i agree w/ both of you. Orient Blue is almost too dark for me. I'd like to see this one up close.

I'm the same way with my car. Not the biggest fan of the color, so I'll have to make it up with some nice contrasting mods. :)

Oh, I guess mine was a PO's addition, then! It looks like this.

Yikes, didn't realize!

Oops. I forgot about Monaco when I titled the thread. I agree that it's a little too dark to justify... not being black.

Aw, well if it helps I think your cars are lovely!
