FIRST Shots Of An Atacama Yellow BMW M3 - FRESH Off The Truck!

It's not a color that you see everyday, not even on the standard model it is optioned with. Atacama yellow is a bold yellow with serious passion behind it. It's not like the pale Dakar Yellow or that depending-on-the-light, snot green Phoenix Yellow.

Something tells me that Agent 001 is going to fall in love with this car. That's because this particular color is reminiscent of Porsche's Speed Yellow -- a color 001 is smitten with.

What do you think, Spies?

Does this Atacama color work on the E90 M3?

Update With First pics.

I'm more of a Dakar Yellow fan, but that being an E90 does it for be as well. Something about the M3 sedans turn me on...

To me the sedan has WAY more appeal.

I like bolder colors like Imola and Avus, so, Dakar doesn't light my fire, personally.

I lusted for a first first Gen S4 in this color. Some cars simply wear the color well.

As a speed yellow owner, this looks a little bit more saturated (less milky) than SY, and also a little more toward the lemon rather than orange shade. Interesting color. I sure wish we had more options for paint without having to spring for custom. There's so much silver out there it looks like there was a government incentive for it.

I think it looks fantastic! It just needs those same competition package wheels in black, the a black grille. Light tint on the windows and that all equals orgasm!
Ive wanted to do this color so bad for my next BMW 335i sedan, but it looks like some one beat me to it.

Wheels need to be in black with this yellow to look good.

This so different that it is cool. Glad to see people going for BMW Individual now. The E90, E92 & E93 color palette is to small just like the new F13 6 Series color palette. The silver, grey and white M3's are just plain next to this. Well done.
