IOM Green however, appears to best represent the new face... and comes of as aggressive and coherent to my eyes at least. Dravit Grey also seems to pull it off.
IOM Green is sharp and grey seems to fit the G80 well also.

My vote is for a Nardo Grey G80. Contrast looked great against black & carbon accents in the Joe Achilles M340 video.

Gotta admit, it actually looks pretty good in white. I just can't do black, white or gray anymore though.

Actually looks really good here, especially in the sunlight.

Not sure what I love more: the massive low hanging muffler or the fake side vents. BMW just gives it all to us!!

I am no longer worried about the size of the grills and have accepted them for what they are. Quite frankly, these pictures look promising.

My new concern is the massive weight increase over the outgoing platform..

It looks like BMW was trying to please too many people. It looks like BMW took a little from Alfa Romeo, Infiniti, Subaru, etc. But I'll be patient and wait until I see it in the flesh.

The SPY photographed in this post is a pre-production mule, they are both pre-production. If you look closer, you'll notice small holes from when the body camo was installed/screwed in. Also, the SPY is missing the rear tire flap, where as the the white G80 has the rear tire flap.

SPY in the sun doesn't have depth as a color, too muted and 'bland'.

People are starting to "change their mind" lol This car is beautiful. I don't understand why people are tripping so much over the big grille but head over heels for ladies with big fake b*obs lol Don't even compare it to the Giulia. Giulia looks like it is wearing a groin cup lol

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

Probably the non-metallic aspect of the paint. I am horrified by this color lol. I never considered owning an Austin Yellow, but I always loved seeing them in the wild.

I am so displeased with this color palette. Of all the greens (signal green, verde mantis, java green), IoM green is my least favorite.

Of all the yellows (Dakar, Speed, Austin yellow), SPY is my least favorite.

I'm nervous to do an individual color this early in the production cycle, so it's frozen orange or toronto red for me.
