Welcome to our somewhat incomplete listing of information about BMW Car Models over the years

BMW Color Codes and information	This page is still a work in progress
This is a partial listing of color codes and names we know of and use in the registry database to assign a color to a members car. The database also includes many color chips which we can't display here. If you know more codes, or have additional info on what we have listed, please let us know.
