UniqueCheese · 04-26-2013, 03:42 PM

If I had the money to buy an M5 in Atacama Yellow ... I still wouldn't.

And maybe they could make the trunk liner in a lime green to augment the color scheme? And orange exhaust tips for a pop of color.

looks goood! now it needs a proper photoshoot!

Gotta find my helmet, the short bus is pulling up.... (Am I the only one who thinks this looks like school bus yellow??)

bmwx3805 · 04-26-2013, 06:11 PM

Thank you. Chrome has always looked good on fast cars, and always will. Ironically, the number of people bemoaning the chrome sort of proves that the blacked out look is actually more passé.

lincvert · 04-26-2013, 07:43 PM

That has to be my least favorite color so far. If you are going bright yellow a true exotic seems like a better choice.

GuyOh · 04-26-2013, 07:50 PM

chrome window trim just ruins it...

rconti · 04-26-2013, 08:34 PM

Absolutely love that color. I'm not sure I'd personally rock it on a car as large as the M5, but that's a personal taste thing. Didn't really notice the chrome till it was pointed out to me.

GT1281 · 04-26-2013, 08:53 PM

Why does everyone in the UAE try to out do each other by seeing who can have the tackiest, ugliest, most vomit worthy car on the road. Haha! Your car might be chrome but mine is golden shower yellow with chrome trim!

I like Monte Carlo Blue best. But as far as citrus colors go, this is actually my favorite.

I prefer it to Sakhir Orange and Valencia Orange. It's a shame that the NY Taxi has tainted this color for civilian use. Actually Atacama Yellow looks better than NY Taxi yellow, but it is close enough to draw unfortunate comparisons

Thank God you guys seemed to have gotten over that

N55 · 04-26-2013, 11:54 PM

The chrome window trim killed it!

FrozenM3nace · 04-26-2013, 11:59 PM

Love the colour but not a big fan of the chrome

mdrobc13 · 04-27-2013, 12:01 AM

Ring taxi maybe? Otherwise it looks terrible! Sorry gotta keep it real. Some folks have too dayum much $$ I guess...they don't know what to do with it.
