SMB color gets better and better with every photo.

Thanks for sharing!

cfm56d7b · 05-21-2023, 09:54 AM

Incidentally, what did everyone pay for SMB paint and how much longer was the wait for the vehicle?

PinkFlamingo · 05-21-2023, 02:55 PM

^^

Paid $3,750 and between the paint and performance center delivery it added 12 weeks.

Worth it. Pic with my little guy at cars and coffee this am

docjavier · 05-21-2023, 09:34 PM

$4200 and 8 weeks.

Guys, are you finding that SMB is incredibly difficult to photograph?
Every time I see it in the metal it blows me away. The depth of colour is beautiful. But in the majority of pics online, it really just looks like a bright blue.

I’m guessing the fact most of us take pics on camera phones these days means they just don’t have the lens quality to capture the true colour. 🤔

The purple and depth doesn’t come through in the photos. The purple tint is one of my favorite things about this color.

I've taken pics with my "real camera" and still had trouble capturing the range of shades. Gotta see it live.

Well, to keep our SMB thread goin, here are a few pics from Saturday and Sunday simple mods.

kingofpena · 06-14-2023, 07:33 AM

Thanks to all posting more pics, I love looking back at this thread in anticipation of my SMB G80 getting here. I've been at port since 05/31 but hopefully can catch a ride stateside soon.

Out of surgery with 77 miles on ODO. Time to get some miles on this!

If any of you know know of anyone who wants a SMB M3 Comp X, Day Laborer has a line on one in the South East. Has Tartufo Extended interior. My wife poo-pop'd the Tartufo and if it had been full I would have pushed the issue and bought it.

I love this color and have some regrets about not ordering it but I didn't want to deal with the wait!

That's so funny mine is SMB with full tartufo, I think it should look pretty good. Hopefully should get it soon, on a boat to Brunswick now, should be docking on Sunday.

It’s a stunning combo. Full leather for me was a must (just one of my things).

Hmm tempting but I have other stupid car plans this year and thinking the right time to order a g80 is when the LCI hits. Also full Tartufo a must on my order.
