Just had to say this to the owners, I was getting gas on the way home from work and next to me at the gas pump was a BMW 320somthing, hell they are running out of numbers. anyway , when he got out he stared, pumping gas he stared, out of the corener of his eye he stared ...all the time trying not to look like he was.. it was great...I know he had no clue what i was driving...Just another reason to love this car

yea thats one thing about the car, it looks like nothign else outhere, look at that even with the silver color the car brings attention...

That exact thing happened to me today, except it was a Z4 convertible. After he pulled away from the pump, I saw him staring at my 8 from the stoplight.

It's the curse of the Silver's that's attacting the attention, they don't want to be cursed by being too close.

Does the Silver curse count if the owner/driver is color blind? And if the owner/driver is color blind and their blue 8 looks silver to them does the curse take effect?

I had a neat "incident" last week driving down main street in my little town. I saw a guy point me out to his wife and said, "Now, that's what I want for Christmas!" They both laughed and waved.

to a color blind person, the silver would look white rather than blacck. but is that person we talkin about semi color blind, or does it have glaucoma, cause it might be that he had a spot on his eye so he cant truly see the color. and how high was he/she when he got the car ? was it on weed ? and from where was that weed? all this are important questions that need to be answered.

At least according to my medical encyclopedia color blind people see mostly brown shades, like sepia photos look.

I am color blind, accually it is called color deficient. SS is not a problem. Greens, Reds and Browns are a problem. Flat colors more than glossy. Also the color of the Red & Yellow on the traffic lights look the same. The difference is the brightness of the light and their position on the traffic light it self.
I ran a flashing red light in Gainsville, GA at 2 AM many years ago, because I thought it was yellow. Usually there are stop signs associated with flashing red lights.
I have no problem with my RX's. They have all been black.
