The car needs to be repainted,brilliant red is not my favorite colour.
last year in Germany a black ks8 sold for €90.000
I am thinking of BMW Cosmos black or orient blue.
I know a colour change will devalue the car if it is to be sold.
I believe, only 3 rhd KS8 built, therefore imo a collector wanting to buy a KS8 will want it in top condition and will repaint it again.
Colour change????

You're not seriously thinking about Black???
A compromise solution could be another Red Tone... a not so obvious change. -
I agree with Danilo,
unless you're a blue in which case how did you last this long?

Dave, a friend of mine - and a collector of special 8ers - loves the color of my 8...
Me too!
Black when it's dark, unbelievable when the sun comes out!
BMW color code X03

I have an Orient Blue one and I love that colour. Depending on the light and angle of view, it looks like:
- very dark blue
- deep, rich metalic blue
- dark violetCheers

Hi Timm, what colour is the interior of the Orient Blue 8?
my 8 has black leather and may not need to be changed.Quote from Timm;133845My last one was Orient Blue!

Orient Blue is one of those colours which are hard to photograph.
The 330i in the middle of this page displays it quiet well though...Cheers

Yes, photographs cannot do Orient Blue justice, very difficult. My interior started off Silver:
...and then I swapped in bi-colour cards from a '91 850i:
