G83 with Brooklyn grey paired with full Fjord Blue/Black. Hopefully the lighter grayish convertible top is offered for the G23/G83 like for the 8 series/M8 vert.

This is probably one of the more unflattering pictures I've seen. Doesn't look aggressive at all, but probably due to the picture quality washing out the lines.

Looks pretty solid in black, but Frozen Blue has looked bad in every photo/video I've seen.

I may be in the minority but I don't like the interior either. The seats are a step up. But the wheel and center shifter area is a step down in my opinion
The carbon weave also looks super small. The whole silver trim outlying the console thing is cheaper looking imo then the old carbon console.

The full US order guides hasn't been released to date, or "leaked" to us on the forums. I suspect that the packages that BMW NA is going to offer for the US market has production delays, which would explain March 2021 market availability.
It's a regular allocation, not an HEA allocation. Just confirmed I can do frozen orange mkoesel unfoundnemo

I think if people could take a proper (non-distorted) photo from a decent angle and with a good camera, most of the hysteria that has infected the forum would be avoided. It's like every shot is taken from a Blackberry Pearl or with a fisheye lens from the ground and two feet away from the grills.

That front 3/4 view of the black M4 is the most unflattering view I've ever seen on a car. I really tried, but I just can't wrap my head around this design.

I'm a little torn on the color of grey i'd like. I currently have a space grey E92 and love the color, but want something more rich than SG and darker than Brooklyn grey. Dravit grey looks too dark on the color swatches at the dealer, but then I see videos like this one and Dravit looks phenomenal...kind of a deeply layered, "creamy" looking grey with gold pearl highlighting the surfaces that are most proud to the body.



Perhaps i should just trust BMW on their color options, as they have spent thousands of hours going over color choices and maximizing the look of the car with what they offer.

Looks like DRAVIT GREY to me. I'm not a color person but to me dravit has that brown/bronze feel to it and this reflection in the video gives it away in my opinion:

Gonna have to see a lot of these colors in person

For me, in no particular order, my preference would be BSM, Frozen Portimao, or Tanz.

Or I could simply cave and go individual and finally get San Marino Blue or Hockenheim.

In post #78 there is a photo post by f85MTUNED with what looks to be another grey that is not currently in our color choices. Is this a render ?

The wheels & drop are probably photoshopped but I can't tell what kind of grey this is.
