Colour Comittment Issues - Verde Ermes & KO interior

I am super close to ordering my new M4, but after showing a few people my colour choice, it has me wondering if I'm bonkers. Verde Ermes exterior with Kyalami Orange interior. The Verde is darker than the IOM green, but not as deep as San Remo Green. I've only seen it on a 5 and 8 series, and plenty of Lambos, so this is possibly the only request to BMW for this colour on the M4. Will the contrast with the KO interior pop, or make it vomit worthy, I can always go back to Tanzanite Blue ( which I've had before) and let the KO do the talking? I'm committed to the car, but after stepping out of a Sakhir Orange M4, I want the next one to look just as hot - but not stupid. Hit me with your colour comments.

I am always inclined to pair a tame color w a bright one. If I were ordering a green exterior, I'd probably choose a black or gray interior. Alternatively white black blue gray exterior and KO interior ---- but I'd probably go for the green / Gray if it were my $$$

I think the verde is more of a classy color that might be best paired with Tartufo.

If your looking for that wow factor I think the Orange/Green combo will certainly stand out but wouldn't be my choice personally. Might be a bit too much brightness to live with for me

My M3 Comp is IOMG with Tartufo- will get it 6/7 but some pics of the combo have been posted and I think you should consider Tartufo for Verde Ermes. As Barry noted- classy!

This struggle is very real. I've been agonizing over which blue exterior to wear for months and then agonizing over whether I should get a Fiona Red interior or stay safe and get Silverstone.

Ultimately I think this might be the last new ICE car I get so the advice I have is the same thing I keep telling myself. Get whatever speaks to you the most and not what speaks to anyone else. Obviously if you have a partner with some level of veto power, their opinion matters (a little)... But otherwise get what you will be happy seeing and driving every day.

There is a fantastic individual Verde Ermes M340 TurtleBoy took delivery of.

I think it would look great with KO

Go big or go home! I'd do the KO with Verde Ermes.

Tartufo would be the safe choice but also can't get that in the carbon buckets if that is something you are considering.
