Do we know 100% that the above M8 is LSB?

I used to say that I believed nothing that I read and half of what I saw. Now, with photoshop and so much fake news, I believe nothing that I read or see, and half of what I write.

Officially, no, but I think it is based on the color on the previous page and also on THIS LINK as its the same 3 colors of the M8's they had sitting out from at M Track days.

You're right, based on the link this is LSB for sure

Any chance at finding the pure blue color sample? I'm not sure how you are finding these on the visualizer. I don't see them anywhere.

I did two screen shots foe a side by side comparison.
Would truly love to figure out how you got the paint swatches from the visualizer site.

Here's a Santorini borrowed from the Visualiser. To get the paint sample image, click the magnifying glass on the paint within the Visualiser. It does an overlay with the paint sample image, which you can open in a new tab, save, etc.

Omg! I never realized that was what the magnifying glass was. I'm so dumb.
I did grab three blues I am looking at. I'm starting to really fall in love with Enzian.

I ordered my AWD M3 Comp in Voodoo with the all black extended leather and carbon seats, carbon package, and the lip, side skirts, and rear spats. Looking forward to seeing how it comes out! Order banks supposed to be opening in next two weeks according to my local dealer, for 2022.

I'm still waiting to place my order for M3 AWD. I'm vacillating between Enzian and Voodoo now. I keep feeling good about voodoo then switch. Lol.
What made you pick voodoo over any other blue?
My intent is to do a superman combo so I'm getting picky on how the Fiona red interior is going to look with the blue. Part of me likes voodoo a lot but worried it will be too light. Some photos make me feel like that but I can't tell if it's real or if the photos are over saturated or manipulated.

What about Pure Blue? Not in the running? Not that I really know what it looks like.

I looked at pure blue for a while. I can't find any really good examples of pure blue that I like. It seems darker than Enzian and I like a more medium or lighter/brighter blue like voodoo. My last Superman combo was estoril blue over Coral red leather.
I really liked it. Don't need to do a copy of it but would like to stay in that color family.

Why pay to get it wrapped when you could just pay close to the same amount (I'm guessing?) and get a custom paint color.

Tangent… did you wrap and/or ceramic coat your Enzian?

I've considered both a bunch, but I think in the end I will probably not end up spending on either. I only plan to have the car until the LCI comes out and all of my previous ones have survived without either despite frequently taking them through car washes even.

Why only keep until LCI? Just curious.

Although I bought this one, I usually lease because I like the new car every few years and by the LCI I'll probably be ready for something new and exciting. A little looks update, new color, maybe some new tech, perhaps move to the 826 bi-color wheels for variety, CF interior that I talked myself out of on this one, etc.
