Fashion Grey G80 M3 finally here

Morangers7 · 07-25-2022, 03:37 PM

This is the way! Love the combo. I'm planning on going Fashion Grey on a G80 myself when I get bored of my F97.

I've been traveling quite a bit lately. Finally got around to take some pics. PS-Her older, but smaller sister got jealous and wanted to be included.

The color combo is 🔥🔥🔥!!

Looks familiar……..

Congratulations!

Nice way to distract from the M4 with an Alpine White E30 M3 in the same pic!

Congratulations!

Thank you! Obviously, I should have done this earlier with my F80. It was black on black. Looked sinister, but black lacks the detail in shapes and contours you get with FG. Your car looks amazing!

What a combo!

I didn't even see the E30...I was too busy gawking at that sexy Honda Accord...

rowdydaoudy · 07-26-2022, 11:19 AM

^Wow, that interior is killer! I'd love that on my speed yellow F80.

This color is so sweet. Probably impossible to get a side by side with another Chalk G8X to compare. Maybe take one next to a Chalk Porsche since there are tons

Porsche chalk is WAY lighter than that. It can almost pass for white in some sunlight.

Actually, the 911 chalk is lighter than the macan chalk. Dont ask me why, I dont know. But I had two chalk 2020 911's and another member here has a 20/21 chalk 911 and we both agree Macan chalk is darker than 911's chalk.

That said, the OP's chalk looks like what the 911 chalk looked like IMO. But fashion grey is much darker for sure.

I posted a FG/ Chalk in post 18. These M5s are FG/ Chalk, for comparison.

New car looks great , but when it's next to the e30 it looks terrible !!
Cannot believe how good looking that classic e30 is, just timeless.

projectme · 07-27-2022, 07:14 AM

Congrats on the car man, looks amazing! I have a g80x in chalk on a boat headed this way. I live all the way up north of Jax FL but I'll be getting my car PPFd and ceramic done in Orlando. Might even stop at PSI right after to have my mid pipe and suspension put in before taking her home. If you want to see them side by side I can try to hit you up when the dates get more concrete.

NotSharocks · 07-27-2022, 02:50 PM

That Accord though.

FG looks very nice on this chassis!

Sean@PSI · 07-27-2022, 03:32 PM

Congrats on the car man. Fashion Grey looks awesome. The E30 looks amazing as well!
