Cool DG The best

I love my diamond graphite. Especially when it’s clean. I remember looking for the car and not knowing the color and asked for the duck tape color . Definitely my favorite color and would not pick any other. It’s not the best looking dirty but once you clean that off man it’s the best looking color you can get.

I liked the DG color, but EVERYONE has it. My '04 was Laser Red and I loved that color so much I just bought a '05 in the same color.

I think red is probably one of the rarest colors....

definitely. I see many more LR G's than anything in athens/carribean/serengeti.

Lakeshore slate is slowly but surely becoming my favorite color, Im not sure as to how rare it is though.

To me its an alright color, not the best by any means, but it gets a lot of looks and it has a lot of depth if you get closer to it. DG is just so bland to me, sure it picks up color at sunset and sunrise, but on the road they blend in with everything else driving by.

If anything looks cheap to me its LR because its practically a flat color with little to no flake.

CB getting no love around here

I love how the DG looks from behind. It looks very nice with the red tail lights.

I dont think the g looks cheap in CB b/c i have it. However when i dropped my car off at the dealership today a guy walking from the back service bay asked me if it was custom painted. Made me feel a little special.

And for the car looking cheap i just ordered some vs-xx's. At least for the car heads will know i dropped a pretty penny, to compensate for the color.....and that's all.

i do think dg is boring athens was my second choice but ive wanted CB since seeing it on 02. no way i am settling for something i would not look at everyday and be in love

decided to go with silver. After looking at the car with stock silver 17's i thought they really 'popped'. i wanted to go away from silver b/c it looks stock and who would know the difference but i think the monster lips will make it known they didn't come with the car.

Year(s) ago black was my number one choice, but after thinking for the past week i decided to many little kids have it on civics eclipses and things of the like. Not to say bmw's blacks do not look sexy.

hmm i think you'd have to say any color with the chips. But i guess seeing how you have black it hurts just a little more when you wash your car and see the 'new' damage.
