Thank you. And will do. Sold the f82 in 2018 so it's been a while. The g80 is a step up in a lot of ways in terms of ride comfort/quality and interior quality. Once I break it in can speak more on performance.

Good choice.
It looks like dravit with silver metallic instead of gold.
I may be way off. Side by side would be interesting

Looks like Night Fury from “How to train your dragon”. It seems like dark colors really fit g80/82. But generally I like that bmw brings all new colors to their range so everyone can get what they like.

Beautiful spec. Love the darkness and richness of that colour with the metallic sparkle.

Enjoy your car...

Congrats on the purchase.

Because its a manual, it's spec'd perfectly! Enjoy it!

I see some purple hues in this color under the dealership lights. Wow, very nice gray!

Looks good but looks like a more ordinary gray compared to dravit. Feeling lucky to get dravit (and Fiona) without the extra individual cost. Solid handsome combo here though and thank you to OP for sharing the pics.

Dropped off for full ppf and ceramic.

Looking forward to seeing more. This is a pretty awesome color.

This thing is unfortunately going to depreciate like crazy due to the lack of Fiona red...

Nice color though!

That's definitely a matter of taste. Black wouldn't be my first choice, but on the other hand I would never buy the car with a red interior.

Looks great, very nice prestige colour

Definitely a matter of taste, you're 100% right.

I'm just speaking in terms of the data for resale values. For whatever reason, greyscale (i.e. white, grey, black and any shade in between) painted high-performance cars hold value better with red interiors.

This is particularly true with the M3 based on the data I've seen.

If I hadn't known this, I would have gone for that crazy blue/neon yellow color combo, hahaha.

Some more photos post ceramic/ppf. Will take some more tomorrow in better light.
