That will be my color if I get it. Looks great. And it's not so bling which I really like.

I agree. These wheels are really good looking too; really concave.

Here's the render with a front lip and some hood vents.

It is amazing how a color can make or break a car!

Some form of School Bus 🚌 Yellow doesn't work it's not a Lamborghini for chrissake. just like in the original concept car failure, that BMW eventually change the paint to race livery as they should have in the first place.

I want to see the M4 in Frozen Black 🖤 and Nardo Grey with black rims!

And why is the M4 and M3 not offered in classy Jet Black non-metallic?

Brooklyn Grey looks fantastic. So, the car has really grown on me. Still think the hood is blah. Just not aggressive.

Wondering if someone will make a hood replacement that eliminates the hood vents and adds in a powerdome?

I think that's likely, however working the grille bulges in will be a challenge

Yeah I love blue as well but it sucks even the blue offered is not a M specific blue (which normally it is). I think all my Ms have always had M specific color, gives it that extra distinction

You're 100% correct - Portamao does not excite me. If I did blue it would be Individual.

Looks like a darker shade of hockenheim silver, but not as rich as Audi nardo gray.

One thing I gotta say.....

The differences between E9x and F8x are so slim compared to F8x and G8x. This car doesn't just look new, it literally looks 3 or 4 generations ahead.

This is good for two reasons. 1) E series and F series cars become more classic looking. 2) BMW finally engages customers that like new-ness and change.

It looks fairly decent in this color and dare I say, almost BMW-like. Also, being from NYC, I like the name allusion..

Anyone has a pallet or link of this specific exterior color and different interior colors?

Say what you want, it does make the F80 look somewhat dated:

If BMW really want to downplay the hideous front bumper and grill of this car and not get all the bad press and strong criticism, they should not have introduced the new M3 & M4 in the lame skittles yellow and green 🌈 paint jobs.

They clearly don't want to downplay it. It's their new design language on these cars, like it or not.

I will say, the pictures/photoshops I've seen of this car lowered makes a HUGE difference. It somehow makes the front end make more sense when it's lowered and matches the aggressiveness.
