The different Colors of the E36 M!

Some of this info was new to me, so I thought i'd share:

Q. What colors and body styles were available?
A. In 1995 and 1996 a coupe (two door) was the only model available.
The sedan (four door) came out in 1997 and was followed by the convertible in 1998.

Colors available for 1995 were Alpine White, Arctic Silver, Avus Blue, Boston Green, Bright Red, Cosmos Black, Dakar Yellow, and Daytona Violet

and colors for 1996-1999 were Alpine White, Arctic Silver (up to March 1998), Boston Green (up to March 1998), Bright Red, Byzanz (1997 sedan only), Cosmos Black, Dakar Yellow II, Estoril Blue, Fern Green (after March 1998), Techno Violet, and Titanium Silver (after March 1998).

I didn't know it was called daytona violet in 95', and isnt there a hellrot red? all i see is a "Bright Red" is this answer just unspecific to the hellrot name?

also didnt know titanium silver existed... interesting.

Hellrot is german for bright red. Why do you think the lighting company is called "Hella"?

Daytona Violet is quite different from Techno Violet (Daytona in the front, Techno in the back):

Techno has a lot more blue in it than Daytona. Daytona is pretty much straight violet, yo.
