Post BMW 330i Orient Blue vs. Acura TLS Aegean Blue

BMW's 330i Orient Blue with Grey Leather looks similar to Acura's AEGEAN BLUE.

I came across some BMW 330i owner's photos at this site below (like 15 photos). I like the look of both cars. Blue is a cool color.

Any comments?

That's Topaz Blue not Orient Blue. Orient Blue is "light" and Topaz Blue is "dark". I've seen the Topaz Blue in person and it's much closer to Honda's Eternal Blue than Aegean Blue. For some reason, I've never liked blue BMW's.

Barry,

I'd have to say that is either Orient or Topaz blue, can't tell and he does not list it. But Orient Blue is a more popular color among BMW owners, so most like it is.

The light color blue is called Steel Blue.

The nice thing about BMW Blue is that they give you a lot of interior colors to go with it, from Sand to Grey. Black leather interior doesn't go well with Blue, goes better with Silver.

On the other hand, 330i Titanium Silver is almost the same with TL S Satin Silver. For 330i you can have grey or black interior.
