But the first picture doesn't look like it is an M-sport of which Le mans blue is an exclusive colour. I think it's Montego blue. Maybe my eyes are deceiving me.

I don't know, the sports seats makes this confusing, although I'm sure you can order sports seats on its own without M-sport.

Yeah I had my doubts but it's too "hyper" to be montego. By the pics it's Le Mans. Could be a vinyl wrap...

As far as I remember msport wasn't available until 2009 on e90 models. This is an 07-08.

mashimarho · 10-19-2013, 10:23 AM

Lemans!

Another nice color to look up is Laguna Seca Blue

Exactly. I think it is Montego. I've always had a hard time differentiating between the two. I've had a Le mans blue E90 and it was slightly darker.

This isn't correct as it's a pre-lci non-Msport. LeMans blue was only available on M-Sports and saddle brown leather only available on LCI's.

The correct colors are:
Montego Blue on Terra leather
Monaco Blue on Beige leather

It does look too bright for montego don't you think? I have never seen a montego that bright.

Nope, looks exactly like Montego to me. It's both a pre-LCI and a non M-Sport so LeMans blue is out of the question. It's undoubtedly Montego. The second picture may actually be beige leatherette instead of leather, hard to tell from the angle.

LeMans Blue wasn't offered until LCI with M-sport. Saddle brown was not offered on E90 until LCI.

It's Montego Blue with Terra interior.

It's definitely Montego. Montego is a very vibrant blue, moreso than LeMans. Maybe you're confusing it with Monaco?

ecamp55 · 10-19-2013, 05:24 PM

Looks like Montego to me as well

StevenY. · 10-19-2013, 05:48 PM

Looks like montego to me too, isn't lemans blue a shade darker?

Montego is brighter than Lemans. There is another color similar to Montego that is slightly more purple.

roadkillrob · 10-19-2013, 06:47 PM

Montego/Terra

As stated above, Lemans was exclusive to M-Sport and not offered until the LCI and Terra was the Sedan color in the early years, only coupes/convertibles got saddle (it looks more orange), Sedan got Saddle on LCI.
