I'm trying to decide which to get on a 325ci

Silver Grey or Steel Blue. Thanks for any comments in advance.

The choice is yours. I get complements all the time on my SB.

I'm trying to choose between these two colors myself, and having a hard time.

SB looks great in bright sunlight, not so good in overcast. Looks good with Sand interior. Clashes with amber turn lights. There's a lot of violet in this color.

SG looks good with Nat Brown interior, not so good with Sand. I like Steel Grey better and I'm sorry they discontinued it.

Both look good with Black interior.

I'd rather have leatherette interior so right now I'm leaning toward SB with Sand, and clears all around.

I have SB and love the color. Lots of people who see it, also love it.

I think they are both nice colors but there is something very nice about the Steel blue with the Sand interior . . . it just looks sooo good !!!!!

Plus it is a pretty rare color lately . . . it seems to have been popular years ago but nowadays I hardly see it . . .

SB at sunset is awesome! The purples and reds in the sky make the car look completely different. Too bad those types of days aren't everyday.

I have had both steel blue and silver gray...and I really like both...major difference to me is that the SG is more blue in different lighting whereas the SB is more purple.

I beg to differ with respect to all the Steel Blue fanatics.

The 3 series are such nice designs that they will look sharp in both colors. I decided on Silver Gray but could have been just as happy with Steel Blue. You can't go wrong with either.
