What Color?

I'm planning on repainting my 02 really soon. Can anyone ID this color? Thanks for the help and Happy Thanks Giving all!

I'd like to say its turkis but when I google it, some come out to be a lighter more blueish color than that of the pictures. I'm all for the darker teal-ish color like shown on the pictures.

The Z3 color is called Evergreen. IMHO it would great on a 2002!

The M color is Evergreen and pretty rare. IIRC Turkis is much lighter than the one on the 02 you have pictured.

The interior even matches the paint.

You guys don't even know how close my 02 was to being Evergreen.

That green looks fantastic. Robin's egg blue works well on 2002s as well.

Well, there's always the next one, after you finish the widebody.....

Whatever it is, it is a really nice color...on a Z3...or a 2002.

Anyone know the color of the car on the video (link at the top of my post)?

the picture is definitely a metallic--very pretty color too. Any Z3 experts out there?

There was an Evergreen Z3 at Ofest 2004 in Pasadena--couple drove it there from either Wisconsin or Minnesota--and it had a pumpkin orange leather interior--they ordered it that way!

And FYI there's another Z3 color that's very close to Turkis--saw one at the Pgh Vintage Grand Prix this past July--there's a pix in the Oct Roundel.

Yup! Thats the answer I was looking for. Its definitely agave. Still undecided on weather I like it or not...Pictures seem very deceiving, some showing more of a dark green and others showing a more teal-ish shade under different lighting. I'm all for something closer to teal. I'll have to see this color in person. Well thanks for helping me solve this little mystery guys. I'll definitely keep evergreen in mind if the agave plan falls through.

As the car in question appears to have a tan interior, then my guess would be Amazonasgrün. This would be slightly lighter than Agave.
