I recollect seeing this when it was new: a 'Matt Stripling special' rather than a 'black edition' (which I had, #097, and I think those are also MS specials). He had a vision of creating some offbeat and different colour combinations and graphics on E9x in particular at the time, including a white E90 D3BT with old school Alpina blue and green 'block graphics'.

The red pinstripes may not appeal to all, but they can be removed if desired.

I dug out some old images of those "creations" recently.

The silver and white cars I could happily get along with and being vinyl the graphics can be easily removed if one's mood changed.

The others not so much, but that's a personal thing as I don't like black cars in general.

Only worry if it starts hesitating from a stand still and junctions when you try and make a gap also might depend on manual or switch-tropic mines a switch-tropic

"creations" :lol:

I may be wrong here as I saw a few of these back in the day, but I THINK he used red lettering on the boot of the white one.....in the flesh, it was quite challenging: very bold. The car sold in past 12 month as I recollect seeing it pop up on one of the usual selling formats.
