I always liked the purple BMW had on the E36 M3...

So I got to thinking... I bet that color (or a similar variant of it) would look great on the Z4C (all Z4 models for that matter). I broke out PS and did a quick purple Z4MC and one in the same color except with iForged Monacos.

Doesn't look bad with the CSL's but the black rims are a bit much.

In a way I agree. I've always been a black center fan, but I would have to say that I know it doesnt look good on every car/color. I was curious. I dont think it looks BAD though. I prefer the CSL's as well, but I'd probably go with BBS LM's.

Hmm...I kind of like it. I concur about the CSL's. But the black rims . It really looks sharp on that M though. Don't think I'd like on a roadster. And you can't tell that's a Ruby Black. Looks black to me.

It seems like almost any colour looks good on the Mcoupe.
That said.... this would be well down the list for me.

Eggplanty. Black rims look like winter tires.

Where do I buy one? I'd trade my Camry, Blazer and my Z4 for this!! Awesome colour (even if it is PS'd)

I've seen a matte purple wrap before. It looks like a skittle lol.. not a fan.

I'd be interested in seeing a metallic wrap, if that's even possible.

Awesome photoshop work. Someone linked the individual catalog recently, and there's a plum color that IMO looks awesome. See the e85 and e86 catalogs.

an aggressive color, needs an aggressive drop. you need the contrast of the hyper silver to make it look great. black is too bland imho
