I also like silver for it's historical tie to Germany's racing color, not that my wife cares, or that a 328i F31 is exactly a LeMans race car.
The red and silver combo is nice, I remember seeing a Z4 traveling down the interstate top down in that color combo...I liked it a lot.

You'd think w/ a name like "sapphire" it'd have blue flakes...or I guess that may be more of a wish on my part
