Agree 100%. The sooner the matte fad is over the better imo.

It isnt a fad, but dont let the forums make you think matte is going mainstream. The vast majority are going to opt for metallic

Overall, it's nice to see a real red back in the lineup. Even if it has an orange hue.
I loved my sakhir orange M3, never really looked brown even in chicago winters, looked more dark red on those days and orange only in sunlight.

I have only seen the toronto red on the X3M in person and didn't like it at all (usually I love reds, oranges, blues) maybe its because of the size of the X3, but too much red. guessing it looks better on M3 with more black to break it up (including roof).

just too light of a red, not like melbourne or imola (wish they brought that back). think lighter brighter audi red.

I think I like Melbourne Red better.

Donington grey would be nice.

They need spacers desperately. There was a render floating around with the wheels spaced out and a drop. It transforms the car for such a simple change. Wheels are a little too far out in the pic, but gives a good general idea.

The frozen colors are always fire. Always have been, always will be. They make everything look incredible. They're also very much love or hate though.

But if u wrapped Rosie O'Donnell in frozen grey ... ya, I'd do her. :

I am not generally a fan of the matte finishes either, but nothing is forcing us to buy it, and choice is always a good thing for customers.

The back looks decent. I am not convinced by peoples photos. They tend to be very flat and no depth.

You need to set the aperture to like 22 let it sit to get a picture of this car.

Also did you guys hear the GT4 RS will put out 500 hp? crazy.

The frozen PB does nothing for me and I like blue and I prefer the G80. However, the TR M4 with the silver wheels looks really good here!

Now that's how you take pictures! Thank you

Both colors look great to me, but it's M3 over M4 any day of the week IMO
