Real life pictures of Fjord Blue interior?

Has anyone ordered, received or even seen Fjord Blue seats in a G8x? If so, can you please post pics? Thanks!

Haven't seen on a G8x so far.

Here is a thread with some photos of a G20 that has Fjord/Black seats:

Not an M3/M4, but this 330e at least gives you some idea of what the color looks like:

Edit: chicagofan00 Ninja'd me, but I'll leave the embedded image.

Thank you both... Those pics help a great deal. I think Fjord blue would be sharp with BG on the G8x...a little unsure if any other exterior colors would work well... Besides AW I guess...

Kudos to anybody who uploads the first BG/Fjord blue combo here. It has been mentioned for weeks to be the (ordered) choice of some of here. The pictures of the blue interior from other models seen look too similar to YMB, i. e. too light compared to above OEM picture/photoshop. I am close to order and struggle between red, fjord blue and tartufo.

Based on this, I'm considering it.

The G83 details on the BMW site let you pick it as a visualization option, but there isn't a way to pick it in the build tool here for the G80.

Nice!

From those pics, I'd say its definitely an underrated interior option. Looks WAY better than the G20 variant.

Wow, that looks really good especially in full leather spec. I bet it will look even better with the carbon buckets and full leather.

Wish it would go with my exterior color choice, I'd option it for sure.

Very nice, thanks BeamerBoomer. I'm torn between this and full Silverstone/Black, paint in Santorini (if I get approved) or Portimao.

That might be too much blue.

Ok, so the way that BMW's build tools put the visualization together is based on URL parameters. That's all the codes in the web address. The first code is the upholstery.

For example:
https://configure.bmw.de/de_DE/confi...FV,etc,etc,etc

This builds a German M3 with Fjord blue extended leather. Different interiors change that first Fcode. I tested it across build tools in the US and Canada, where I am. Fjord blue interior doesn't work, but others did.

My wife does not like the Fjord blue (she's fond of what is/was my top pick: Silverstone full leather). I haven't decided yet if that matters to me, because its my car and I like blue, dammit!

Fjord blue would work really well with AW... "blue blood" interior.

The color looks great on the blog posts but appears really dark in the configurator. The color also looks off on other BMW models.

Woah, bold combo for sure. Not sure it really works well together but so long as you like it that is all that matters.

I do like the Fjord blue though. Great interior color overall.

I wasn't too sure if it would work, I'm pretty happy with it though. The launch colors for these cars were pretty bold to begin with.

I'll give you credit for having a set of balls. Love the fjord, but not sold on the IOMG/fjord combo.

So my dealer tried to put in the Fjord blue with bucket for my 2022 AWD order but it would not let them, so I guess Fjord is not offered in bucket in the US... I know it is possible in Europe, can someone confirm? Thanks.
