As the title stated, I'd like to call out all Amethyst Gray owners. Because I always wonder how many members (active or not) actually have one. I, for one, love this color as it's unique, plus you don't find that many on the road anywhere in NY/NJ (let alone modded ones). For those who live around the Tri-States know there are so many E60s in the area. And I always enjoy seeing other E60 drivers staring at my car and sometimes commenting on it (positive mostly ).

Anyway, I know there are a couple active members like Dirk "dirksqjaw" and Derrick "deriffic". But there are some others whom I came across and forgot about. So, come on in and show your color, bro!

jm - Great to hear from you and thanks for checking in. I bet that must be a long and fun drive back from Nebraska. Love to see some new pics of your A.G. 545i.

I also think AG color looks very unique and stand out from the crowd. I put on many carbon fiber parts and they match perfectly. SUPPORT !!

This has got to be one of the rarest colors, but I can see it being very nice in person, but with chrome its not so nice to be honest...

This is the only clear one I've got... the best time of day for this color is at dusk - purple comes out just a bit. In bright light it looks a little bronze.

I get a LOT of complements on it, mostly from women but also from parking attendants, some of whom think it's a custom paint job, as they're used to seeing black, white and silver only.

I agree with the notion that it looks best with shadowline trim (then again, I think all of the colors look best with shadowline.....) Something about the chrome takes away from it.
