What color gray is this M3 with red interior? (UPDATE: Photoshopped from IOMG/KO)

I was thinking of going with Dravit Grey but I'm liking this more. This pic looks like the Mineral Grey Metallic. It is certainly not the Brooklyn Grey. The Interior looks like Fiona Red which is the one I want.

I think it looks amazing. This is almost exactly the spec I want except for the wheels.

Thanks for posting this. It's nice to see these cars up close in something other than the 2 launch colors, especially the interior. I have a mineral grey metallic car, and I can say without question that this one is not mineral grey. This is also too light in color to be Dravit Grey in my opinion. I think Dravit owners will back me up on this..you out there Mr. Clan? That leaves Brooklyn Grey, and Oxide Grey II, and of the two I think it is Brooklyn Grey. Oxide Grey II appears lighter in color than this to me.

If you look up the Individual Configurator for the M3/M4 in this forum, sample exterior colors are shown that are very close to actual, and I think back up my opinion. And by the way, that Fiona Red interior is Killer with the right exterior colors.

Definitely not the Brooklyn Grey , i think it might be the Hatch grey Metallic which looks like the Frozen Grey in a metallic form . i had the chance to play with these extra individual Colors that were available on the Canadian Configurator for 2 days , to me the Fiona Red is a Must now and i Must have a grey color as well and this one is Hit on

Now that’s the grey paint I’ve been waiting for. There is a reference to a grey we hadn’t seen yet in one of the guides presented on this forum but I can’t recall the name of it.

Killer combo.

I also want a Grey exterior; however, I’m not liking any of the options currently available which has me even considering black . The interior is awesome also.

Here are some indoor pics of Brooklyn Grey. It does look darker than the outdoor pics but not sure it's close enough to the OP to call it.

So is Brooklyn Gray similar to Nardo? OP posted pic looks darker and very nice.

Did they have the individual interiors available with carbon buckets, though? That and the brakes are the main things throwing a flag on these pics. I sort of dismissed individual interiors because I figured you wouldn't be able to get them with a carbon bucket, and didn't like the use of contrasting colors with them in the press materials, but I suppose it's a bit more simple to customize the buckets seats from a leather standpoint.

It seems you could see a reflection of an SPY car off the rear driver's quarter which seems pretty accurate, so if the exterior color was touched, I don't think it's by all too much (I suppose they could re-correct that too, but a little too much detail to .

Yes , i have no idea why they removed this option from the configurator after few days but indeed there were all there , the Tartufo Leather looked amazing as well .

to me a Grey Color is a Must . some people don't realize the amount of bad attention you can get in the real world . i'm driving a Sapphire black m240i and it is subtle compared to my old Estoril Blue M235i , unfortunately in the real world Hate does happen and having a shouty Sao Paolo Yellow BMW here in the north east is a recipe for bad attention , every car reviewer spoke about the jealousy and envy and bad attention they had while driving new press cars.

It could be real! If we don't see more pictures of this same car within the next few days I'm going to stick with my "it's photoshopped" assumption! I'm surprised no pictures of the full car were posted.

Unfortunately for me I don't have budget to spend on individual colors so I'm going to be Brooklyn Grey as long as I like it when I see it in person. I'm also going with Kayalmi Orange interior and I'm definitely a red interior person!
