Its funny 'cos its true! Oh hang on, wait a minute.....

Regarding Olivin Green its not really a green colour is it, more of a bronze? Seen a few SE's over here in it and it does look good, but needs the sun to shine on it to get the full effect.

I say go for it if thats what floats your boat. Dont think there is any bad clours in the range.

Either hate OG or love it. I used to love it with beige interior, but resale will be hurt. However, you buy car for you, not for the guy who'll buy your car. Just trade it in

Red, Green, Brown and worst of all white are colours not to choose in UK if future re-sale is important. Even the police are starting to use silver cars for this very reason!

I have to agree with areofresh, you purchase a car for you not for resale or anyone else. I just ordered my 2007 525I in OG with Beige interior and gonna purchase 166's 19". So it will look good so just go for it.

Look good for who? We like to drive our cars.

It's like buying clothes I guess and sometimes though someone feels really "cool"/"fashionable" in their choice of clothes, the overall effect on observers is occasionally something quite different and entirely unaticipated.

Of course there are those who just want to make a "statement"....
