Twilight Purple G80 and Techno Violet E36 Photoshoot

TargaM2 · 11-01-2022, 08:13 PM

E36 looks great.👍

Haywood · 11-01-2022, 08:55 PM

I'd still take the e36.

ResIpsaLoquitur · 11-02-2022, 01:13 AM

Not sure if this is yours because the G8X forums aren't my side of the house. I'm generally not a fan of the M4, purple, or soft top convertibles. On paper, I should hate it (and even if I did, it doesn't matter â€” to each their own!). But this is stunning and an absolutely gorgeous car!

Congratulations and enjoy it in good health!

Yeah, I had one for a decade. Fun car.

That E36 sure has aged very well hasn't it?

GOLFFRR · 11-02-2022, 08:56 AM

Love it!

ChiTownM · 11-02-2022, 08:59 AM

Why exactly did I sell my e36….

:Oh well - thanks for the nice photo shoot. I always love the dark BMW blue and purple cars, including my Misano Blue M2

Excellent pics and great vehicles. M3 keeps growing up though….like all vehicles.

Looks amazing chicagofan00! The picture of your beast with the plane overhead is beautiful. I love urban themed shots! The e36 ages so well, but damn Twilight Purple on your G80 blows it out of the water. I always loved yours, so happy to see this!

retroviol3t · 11-02-2022, 10:10 AM

chicagofan00 ADAM! Great pics bud... supposedly my TV Jahre is going to be here within the next few weeks!

The blue undertones in the TV is exactly what I love to see!

G8XM3 · 11-02-2022, 10:15 AM

looks amazing!

Thanks! I love a good urban setting as well. So easy to ignore them and go straight for the desert shots around here.

Haha, I know that feeling all too well.

It's crazy to see how much it's grown over the years but like you said, all vehicles have. At least some of it is for the sake of safety.

Nice pictures of two very cool cars. I love the purple on the G80.

Crazy how different they really are. I really prefer the savoriness of Twilight. I just want to sink my teeth into it

Back in 90's when I was a kid techno violet metallic was my favorite colour. Of course I like new G M3 in TP but this E36 is pure emotion.

Eurohorses · 11-03-2022, 09:36 AM

Crazy how much cars have grown in size.

Matt@Evolve · 11-03-2022, 11:54 AM

Techno E36's will forever have my heart

cfm56d7b · 11-03-2022, 03:57 PM

Remarkable photo shoot: the not so old with the new. Both are terrific. Thanks for sharing!

MParallel · 11-08-2022, 03:07 AM

Any E36 content is always +1

Proper mid size sports car.

rolbmw · 11-08-2022, 07:15 AM

Both cars look great

4cylenjoyer · 11-09-2022, 09:31 AM

Both look very clean. I want to paint my g20 midnight purple😭
