Congratulations! I have the same color combo and it's awesome. Here are some pics of mine.

This color is gorgeous from what I have seen in pictures. Does it show a very light shade of blue in certain lighting conditions? Have not seen this in person yet

Unless it's in the sun it's not easy to see it's metallic.

I'm torn between Skyscraper and Brooklyn gray! I will have the exterior carbon package and the carbon brakes, but I cannot seem to decide. My order has yet to get placed so I have some time to decide

Yes, you can see a blue hue in certain lighting conditions.

I'm really looking forward to mine. Just a few more days and should be at the dealership! BG over tartufo. Should be a unique combo. Pictures will be forthcoming.

I'm really torn between Fiona, Silverstone, and Kyalami. I put my order in for Silverstone, but having second thoughts. Is Kyalami very in your face in person?

I saw Fiona on a blue car in person, and it looked great but not sure how it will clash with Brooklyn Grey

Color is subjective….but I would think Fiona interior would be one of the best possible combinations with BG exterior.

FR seems to be a popular choice with BG.

I think KO might also go well with BG. I saw several KO vehicles during M track event last year and it paired well with IOMG.

That's the first time I'm hearing anyone questioning BG with FR.

I personally think it's one of the best combinations and both colors compliment each other.

Early on people had some reservations about FR I think due to the slight blue hue that BG gives off. I have BG/FR and it’s an amazing combo IMO. Not an ounce of clash!

Yeah it's not like it's superman combo with blue + red. It's a silver/grey/bluish. I think it's one of the few colors that goes with almost every interior color.

I had a hard time choosing silverstone vs FR. I figured that since the exterior color, while beautiful, isn't bold - I'd go with a bold interior.

I'm more concerned about my BG/Yas Marina Blue full leather spec!

Seems like a handful of people have done it already and are happy with it.

Even though BG has a very slight Blue hue, the yellow accents throw a wrench into it and make it pretty loud

Even though a lot of you said Fiona Red (thanks for the recommendations), I changed to KO 😅

Conservative exterior should get a wild interior, YOLO.

KO is a solid choice and looks stunning. Don't understand how some people choose a dull interior such as black with all the vibrant options, but hey, to each their own.

KO is great, but clashing brakes killed it for me.

Silver on black is a badass combo. To each his own. Some people here think ymb is nice. It's actually hideous lol

BG and KO is the best color combination. I am glad to see someone finally post it. Enjoy it!

I was considering this spec too. I really loved the YMB, but I feel like it was fully married to SPY.

Had I saw one in person, I would have probably considered it higher. Then again, red is my favorite color so why not.

It was my consolation for not getting TR exterior.

i am convinced that this color is so hard to reproduce that you all have 1/1 of cars. None of them look similar, they all look different in different lights.
