IOMG is too much attention for me (final answer) but I think it is amazing.

I am down to two...

1. PB*, black buckets, black wheels, possibly ceramics
2. DG, KO buckets, 826bc, not sure on brakes as the price is starting to climb.

I have a BSM 1M or else I would do BSM or TB2. BMW gave us a lot of good colors, but I kind of wish a mineral grey type of color was a standard color.

*due to ///AVM pics

I did Frozen White with Fjord Blue interior. If I did it again I'd probably do Frozen Gray.

If you have the car already, I'd be very interested in pics of the interior. My order spec is currently Fjord blue.

Right now I have a Frozen White over Yas Marina M4. If I'd do it again I would get an AWD M3, twilight purple over full silver stone.

Ordered DG but if money wasn't an option, would have gone with Frozen Gray. So many great options though...

We have just place an order for a Verde Ermes G82Xdrive. Have not seen the color in person, but people give it praise who have seen it. Long wait though!

I'm going to wait until the refresh and trade my bg in for fashion gray, if they approve it. If not, I'll do frozen black

I don't think I've ever experienced so much decision anxiety. I'm constantly switching between M3 or M4, and which color I will choose. The M4 is my preferred choice, but I think I'm going with the M3 because of the added practicality.

Oxide Grey has become my first color choice (or Skyscraper if going with M4). Dravit would be my second choice, and Brooklyn my third. I will get KO interior with any of the above colors.

Definitely going with Frozen Black or Frozen Dark Grey next time. This is a wrap, but it looks perfect to me. Good news is the real paint has an even better finish.

If you were to pick a color again, what would you choose?
I went Brooklyn grey because iomg my girlfriend said would be too flashy going to work…should have ignored her, I drool over iomg whenever I see it on the road

I was also the same with BG and IOMG, I figured the BG would be too tamed compared to the IOMG. I've never had a green car before, and why not now. I thought the same when I got my Austin Yellow F82 M4, and that color became one of my favorites of all time. Sometimes you just gotta take that leap and jump onto something new I haven't gotten the car yet, but if it attracted too much attention I would probably wish I chose the BG instead lol.

Not saying there is anything wrong with Brooklyn Grey, in fact it's gorgeous. But IOMG is just... wow

Just placed my order for a g82 xdrive Toronto red with Silverstone interior! If I were to have gone the individual route on the exterior I would have picked java green.

I test drove one with Silverstone and I think it's a great colour but I'm worried it won't age as well as black for a daily driver. Hope it was the right choice!

Ordered a G82 in Dravit, it looks amazing, almost impossible to capture in pictures. Video, maybe. I really want IOMG, but I just think it would be a ticket magnet. Super flashy, DG is a little more stealth.

For those who haven't seen Dravit in person, I was able to capture it pretty well on video. Check out the color shift.

I ordered IOMG but was torn between that and BSM. Most of my sports cars have been black so wanted to change things up a little and the IOMG is so unique. Rarely see green cars in the mid size town I live in.
