Oh and +1 on trying to keep the car clean.. BBP seems to be the worst color, next to black ...
I think it might even be worse than black... when it's squeaky-clean, it positively GLOWS, but with just a little dust, it just goes flat. I'm hoping I can find some wax that will help the dust off, but not likely here in TX. Too much construction, and too much dry land out west for that to happen.

^^ True. I've noticed that when I take pictures of my car it's kinda difficult to get the "purple" to come out. Most if the pic's I snap are very dark blue. But I think that this pic is the one that tells all on what the color really does. It was taken the day after I bought it. (Too bad it's all stock and dirty)

Would you mid post up more pics with you aftermarket wheel?? I want to see how to color match with BBP. I saw the one you post before, but want to see different angle. PLZ!!
Thanks for the tip, FitBull, I'll give that a shot. The Meguiar's three-step I just used doesn't do anything for the dust. Does make the water run off better, and the paint sure glows... for a day...

Now featuring an 08 BBP
i finally saw a BBP in person and maybe i'm colorblind or something but i SWEAR it looked more purple than blue
extremely gorgeous color though, it was parked right next to a MR and on comparison they just look like 2 entirely different cars. the BBP is very sleek, the MR looks more sporty.

i was heavily considering trading mine in for it
Yeah i saw one last week on the road is it was really purple with the way the sun was hitting it. Right when they released the 08's i went and checked a BBP out at my dealer and it was cloudy and it look Navy blue. I love how it changes color. Very cool!

yeah i think it all depends on the lighting...cuz a friend of mine had that gsr purple redone on his car but a lil darker like the BBP....only thing was if ever he did a photo shoot at night...he had to find a place that would be bright enough for his SLR to get the color of the shot...
on the other hand, what i like about the BBP is it confuses people what color it is during certain times of the day...haha

Guess I am a little late on this thread, but I am a BBP owner. I find the blue comes out under flourescent lighting. On the rare occasion I find myself at a gas station (gotta love the Fit MPG), overhead flourescent lights at night actually make it look like a completely different car, a fairly bright blue color. During overcast days, or at night, it looks almost black, but in direct sunlight there is no doubt about the rich dark purple base color.

Yeah, the dynamic range of colors on the BBP are making it hard for me to choose a wheel color for mine. I already have the wheels (just had them media blasted), just waiting to figure out what color to powdercoat them...
