: Thanks for starting the Z8 board. I can't imagine a lot of activity for a while but I sure think about this car a lot.
: I ordered one in November and anticipate an April delivery. I'm deliberating over the color. I have a silver 540 and really like it and the Z8 does look nice in silver...

: I posted the color question on the E39 board. Color is obviously highly subjective but I'm having trouble deciding what color would look best not actually having seen the car. Black is too hard for me to keep swirl and dirt free, red looks great on Ferarris and Porsches but I don't know on the Z8. I'm deciding between topaz blue and silver with black interior.
: Thankfully there are no other options to consider.
I was not impressed with Topaz on the Z3. It doesn't look good in low light (ie cloudy) conditions IMO. Looks pretty good on sunny days.
I would personally take the silver, but there are going to be a lot of silver Z8s. If you are going to spend that much on the car, why not see if you can get other BMW colors. I am not sure what factory they are making the Z8 in (Dingolfing or Garching?) nor where they are painting the bodies (which will determine what colors are available).
