After seeing that thread, Moonrock seems to be out. It may just be, because of how it looks to my on S2000's. I also want to avoid pearls, and "flaked" colors as much as I can.

The original Ti Silver has a bit of white pearl to it, and seems too hard to match. The body shop that worked on my car is a very competent shop. They tried two different times to get the car to look even again. With that said, I'm assuming that the Sebring is more of a "flat" silver.

I threw Silverstone in the mix (knowing full well that it can be a hard color to match when a panel may need to be repainted) just to see how it'd look. To my surprise, I like it alot.

As for BMW colors, I absolutely love the Orient Blue and the Imola Red. The SteelGray is inbetween the Sebring and the Silverstone as seen above. It's not enough of a color change....the blue is out because it's too manly of a color for my wife (this is my wife's car, btw).

BTW, the e46fans (for the most part) are suggesting painting the whole car Sebring, powdercoat the wheels black, and carbon fiber the top roof panel in between the rain channels.

I may be inclined for something like that as well, however, I'm not sure if the wife with care for the tuner look like that.
