I do like the idea of Tanzanite on brown, though I have Nougat brown in my Q7 which is a bit too light, and from what I understand Tartufo is similar. Ideally I'd want a very dark brown such as Porsche's Truffle.

I was initially looking at DG with KO but after seeing KO in person couldn't see myself driving in that brightness for 3 years. Decided to go with Tartufo. Wish could get Tacora Red in merino as an option. Think it would compliment DG nicely.

This looks amazing!

I was at my dealer today configuring a Dravit grey and I'm between your exact build with SS buckets and standard Fiona Red seats. I don't know which one to go with! How do you like it?

The SS CF seats in mine get a bunch of compliments on the look and contrast with the cars exterior. One reason why I went with a light tint setup too-didn't want to block these beauties from view!

My exact reason as well for going with a lighter tint than normal for my G82. I'm usually around 30% all the way around, but not this time. I'm doing 50% because I want my SS seats to shine through under most lighting situations.

Hec, even 50% is a tad dark under some lighting, but I'll make it work.

Order placed! Dravit with Fiona red Bucket Seats (SS would have been a great second choice that I would have been happy with). Feeling so happy right now.

Nice! Did you go regular or extended leather?

I did regular. Spent the extra money on the carbon fiber package and bucket seats.

Was there a reason why you guys don't like BG out of curiosity, if you did considered BG

Personally, the reason I'd easily pick DG over BG is because it's a far more complex color. BG stays the same in lighting condition, but DG has so many flakes that it's pretty much a different shade every time you see it. As I said before, if I didn't already have a grey car in the garage, this would potentially be my first choice.

I love Dravit Grey and how it changes color depending on lighting. The only thing that scares me is trying to touch up a scratch or paint matching if I am in a fender bender. I will PPF the front and bumper and of course side skirts.
Beautiful car by the way

Picking up the car tomorrow at 5pm... so pumped. Gave my previously ordered f82 M4c a hard break-in. Will be following the rules this time around.

Ordered late March. Arrived a week ago. Sorry 2 pics are sideways, f*ck it

barryc365 · 06-30-2021, 07:29 PM

Picked the car up today from getting PPF, Ceramic, light tints and spacers.

Lot of people looking at the car on the way home including and old woman who said 'honey, that's a really nice car'

@Tall Tom Cruise - I'm breaking in the S58 on my X3M Competition a touch on the aggressive side. But nothing over the top or borderline risky.

What exactly happened with the S55 in your F82 M4C... ?

15 up front and 10 in the rear.

I'm on Pirelli's and I haven't experienced rubbing in reverse like others, I've just been cautious not to go full lock

Have that MSS HAS kit on the way so that may cause a little more rubbing

No, MSS I think it's called. From Evolve

I'm not a fan of dark grey but DG is unique in that it straddles the line between the light grey and dark depending on ambient light conditions. Very nice color.

Limegrntaln · 07-08-2021, 08:10 PM

Im glad I ran across this thread. This definitely has me switching my M4 Spec, from BG to DG. I never knew how dynamic the color actually was. I've never seen it in person. Removing that $550 and adding the $1,950. Here we come.

02M3ForMe · 07-12-2021, 03:13 AM

Dravit looks great in the studio.
