Official PORTIMAO BLUE G80 M3 / G82 M4 Thread

OneSlickM · 03-04-2023, 12:06 AM

After almost an entire year of waiting (Mar 8), it has finally showed up! Tomorrow is pick up day and I received some shots from my SA. Time to knock out those break in miles!

I'll be starting my build thread soon as well since I have parts waiting in my garage.

I think I'm gonna get through the break in first before I start modding though.

Thank you!! It was definitely worth the wait.

Happy early Easter everyone! I’m just trying to give you some anxiety from the bikes😂

The PB looks amazing in a lot of pictures, but sometimes lacks the depth of the SMB or Marina Blue. I'd love to see them side by side (a long shot probably) to make sure extra ~3500 is worth spending...

Covers the monthly payment?

PB is just awesome. Even looks good in a basement parking garage.

Yep, I don’t see the reason to pay $3500 for SMB even though I like it a bit better…

Is Frozen Portimao allowed in here?

They look sweet nicely done! What color are they? Another bronze but is there a name to the color? I’m going to get my 826M’s powder coated and was looking for some bronze colors. Thanks.

Brushed bronze from BC forged.

That color combo and fitment looks incredible. Love the front tire poke 💪

Took delivery earlier this spring after a painful 9 months (better than the 2yr quote I got initially last summer).

My detailers added a video overview on instagram after they finished the PPF & ceramic coating

M3PB_Mike05 · 06-09-2023, 10:42 PM

EU delivery while living there to finally landing in the US. Absolutey love it!!!

Chapter2099 PB in Fiona in dark and sunny conditions

Chapter2099 · 06-17-2023, 10:17 PM

This is sharp, Aalfred. Wow!! Thank you for getting these photos.

I was sold on Alpine but now I’m leaning towards Portimao.

SMH. I can’t decide, but this build looks great.
