Anyone who has seen the San Marino Blue both gloss and Frozen on the M3 F80/F82 CS can agree that it is one of the most beautiful ///M colors. Velvet Blue is also very nice.

The new X5M has a similar Marina Bay Blue color. Of course, you can't get this color on an X3M.

These new G80/G82 color selections are a scam...forcing you to buy an individual color for an extra $5k. Interlagos Blue and Lemans Blue, plus Space Gray on an E9X M3 were standard colors for $550.

Isle of Mann Green is a nice British Racing Green alternative.

If you need a blazing SoCal Sun to see the blue in your paint, like Carbon Black and Tanzanite Blue, that means it will be black at nigh,t which defeats the point of getting a bright color. Portimao Blue is not so great Frozen. Portimao Blue might be too light a shade of blue...darker than Estoril Blue...but not San Marino Blue.

They seem to have gotten the colors right on the new M8s...
