Looking to buy a car in white but want to know if Audi and BMW plain white cars are single stage paints with no clear coat? 2011+ Audi Ibis White and BMW Alpine White.

Thanks!

BMW Alpinweiss(Alpine White) I and Alpinweiss II are single stage, Alpinweiss III is base clear. Only new single stage white BMWs I've seen in the last few years are either special ordered via individual with european delivery or BMW NA race chassis(typically marked not for road use).

As mentioned above the latest Generation of Apline White is base/clear on BMW.

Go ahead and get a new white BMW.

I have done 2 x Ibis white Audi RS3's and one Ibis white Audi TT, none of which seemed to be single stage
