20" wheels mate, nice but ......
Nice wheels but to big for a Z3
Just wondering if it's factory Dakar Yellow. Or something pimped up in yellow.
Think your right It does look rather bright
Silly sized wheels!
Colour on front corner looks closer to Ferrari Giallo Fly. I'd compare it to my Morgan, but it's hissing down outside and my garage is not joined to the house!

It was more about the style than the size. I agree they are far to big.

Looks like a 1.9
Have to admit the black front grilles and the added splitter at lower bumper do actually suit it agree with the wheels nice but too big
I think it's Dakar. If you zoom in the bumper looks like it's had paint making it look brighter but the bonnet looks right.

Probably is Dave.
Dakar is a colour than can look really different depending on the light and background
Sometimes can look really yellow and rich and in other light looks very pale and pastel like.
The one thing i would say is looks great in any light or weather its just one of those colours
Looks great in a sunny setting but equally brightens up a dull wet day pic

You’re right on the colour Steve. Got to also consider a few other technical things too.
Cameras do all kinds of funny adjustments to create what they think is a faithful rendition to produce an image that reflects how your eyes see the same scene. Then you’re probably viewing it on a non calibrated screen for the colour-space that the image is stored in (sRGB for internet images - there are better ones available). Then devices don’t show the colour space properly but iPads tend to be good). Chances of all this lining up are quite slim if your looking at something like exact colour.
Unless you know how it’s processed and know what your viewing it on you can never be sure.
But, looking at the photo and the colour of the light falling on it, I would think the bonnet and tops of the side panel are the areas I would trust. My judgement is it is probably a Dakar.
Is it Dakar then Ian lolYou’re right on the colour Steve. Got to also consider a few other technical things too.
