Is there a difference in new Titanium Gray II color or are they the same? I know they have different order numbers and Titanium Gray I was introduced in 2004, but I can't tell by the photos if there is any change in color.Does anyone really know? and if so did they finally get that ulgy green look out?
old and new color can you tell?

TG1 has a tad of green in it.
TG2 is the only one available now and its the nicer one (less green).

TG I is no longer in production --> http://www.e60.net/information/options/ext.../titanium_gray/
TG II has more the gray look rather than green --> http://www.e60.net/information/options/ext...titanium_gray2/

Titanium Gray 1 has a mild greenish cast and Titanium Gray 2 has a very mild purple/reddish cast, to my eye.
By the way, when searching on this subject search both "grey" and "gray" as both spellings are used (BMW uses "gray").

Yeah, I can tell. If BMW had not taken the green out I've probably be owning Silver Gray right now.

You have got to go to the Meet and point this out to me. I've never seen it in my car.

The surest way to tell is to open your hood and look for A36. That is the paint code for TGII.
