Last time this topic was raised on Tbricks, Mike in Wales claimed my 360 was about the same colour as his E30. I'd just picked up a front spoiler for his car, so I took a pic of it on my bonnet...

I swear some people are colourblind in that range. sm56

Yes....silver Redlines were Smoke Silver (306) too. True, it's not a light silver...but I don't see the beige / bronze in it that many people seem to.

cheers

Hmm... strangely there's a Redline saloon on a European ebay at the moment (can't remember which)... didn't know they did them in saloon form!

They didn't, here. You could get 360 GLT Redlines in mainland Europe, too.

cheers
