f82mw · 06-25-2015, 10:01 PM

f82mw · 06-25-2015, 10:32 PM

hmmm okay let me find out !

f82mw · 06-25-2015, 10:35 PM

okay i just tried it again! let me know if it works

Ian1973 · 06-25-2015, 10:40 PM

Looks like alpine to me, but you can't tell that well from that distance. Mineral just has some metallic to it I believe.

Andrew115 · 06-25-2015, 10:49 PM

I would also say alpine. Can't tell if it's lowered front wheel is easier for me to spot the difference.

f82mw · 06-25-2015, 10:50 PM

I couldve sworn it look more metallic! So you cant really tell a big difference anyways can you?

Ian1973 · 06-25-2015, 10:53 PM

I dont think you can until you get up close, but I also haven't seen to many mineral white cars to know. Looks a lot like mine, so i'm going with alpine.

DocWeatherington · 06-25-2015, 10:58 PM

I am thinking MW

MineralWhiteF80 · 06-25-2015, 11:05 PM

Mineral white is an interesting color. It has a sort of pearl appearance like brilliant white. Alpine white is a plain flat bright white. Mineral white is a white with a very fine silver flake in it that changes appearance depending on type and direction of light hitting it.

I have a mineral white F80 and an alpine white F30. Here is a pic in my garage for comparison- it's the best I have at the moment...

f82mw · 06-25-2015, 11:07 PM

Wow that is a great pic! rep! I got an mw m4 coming soon! Just wanted to see what color that car was haha. Alpine white is more on the dull side it seems.
Do you regret getting MW? Or would you prefer alpine

MineralWhiteF80 · 06-25-2015, 11:14 PM

Here is another.... You can see some of the pearl in mineral white accents.

f82mw · 06-25-2015, 11:15 PM

Ahh i see! The mw looked leas boring and gives it some color! Thanks! I just cant really tell my looking at the cars lol, i can only tell when i look at it really close

Well... you can't go wrong with an alpine white M car. But! I'm really glad I got mineral white on the m3, the color is amazing. I'd get mineral white again if I had to do it over. Mineral white gives the paint more depth or dimension and it slightly changes color depending on the light. When it's overcast outside it looks like a very light silver. While alpine is a great color but mineral white makes alpine look very plain.

Looks alpine to me

pavlizhec · 06-26-2015, 12:18 AM

supremepower · 06-26-2015, 02:17 AM

I'm pretty sure It's Alpine White. Looks like it's lowered on the KW HAS Kit or Eibach Pro Kit. The rear is dropped slightly, but not as low as H&R
