Does anyone have photos of Dravit with Fiona red? Wondering how that combo would look.

I'm getting that combo on my G83. It's still in production, but here's what put me over the edge to order it:

My order is for BSM (I think darker colors look best on G80 M3) but I am tempted to try Dravit. I just worry the brown gold sun tones might bother me. I clearly like the color more in the shade.

Does anyone regret choosing dravit?

I wanted a Grey car period so I tossed the idea for BG and Skyscraper Grey but after going to a dealership and seeing all the colors, Dravit Grey won out. Pictures do not give you the full effect and its truly dynamic in person. I saw it on a Seven series years ago and fell in love with it.

Out of those greys, Dravit would be my pick hands down too.

If you are doing black, I would do Fiona Red or Kyalami. Any of those colors would make the black pop. Not a M3 but gives you a idea.

Yea I am either Black sapphire with fiona red.

Or I will do Dravit with the orange interior. The gold flake in Dravit makes me worry it will clash with bright red interior.

I've seen a Dravit M440 with Tacora Red interior and it looked awesome. I imagine Fiona would look great too. But I've also seen a Dravit M4 with KO and it looked awesome too. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with either choice

Thanks! The Kylami orange matches the gold flake in the sun so I am drawn to that. Plus I have had a lot of red leather cars. I just worry I will get sick of orange. Man this is so hard.

Here is Dravit with fiona interior 3 series. Not sure the red works with dravit as much as the KO does.

Wow, that person must've spent a lot of money for a regular 330e. But I agree with you, I think the KO works better than that interior

I went with Silverstone because of how light the color is and how it changes shades. Tarturfo is another option for Dravit but it did not have black down the middle and I like that design.

This was what I was aiming for when I went with DG and KO. I honestly could not be any happier with how it turned out. In my opinion, this is a perfect combination. If you're considering Dravit, Kyalami should be at the top of your list of possible choices. Take a look at my earlier photos. Also, it's definitely worth the extra money to go with full Merino. The extra coverage on the upper snd lower dash, doors and knee pads really raise the interior to another level. Many have forgotten to mention the contrasting stitching that is also part of this on all these areas - the black snd the orange locations. Do not worry, it's not too much Oramge with the added lower dash areas.

I saw your photos!!! Those are what caused me to change my order today from black sapphire metallic with fiona red, to darvit with kylami!

Full leather is a must. I choose that.

Thank you for letting me know how you feel living with KO. I dig it.

[Avaley]

might be my favorite color for this car

Damn, I saw this post too late. I could have driven down to Mountain View and finally seen one in person!!

Thanks for the post. If its there, next week, Ill go check it out.

Yup!
That's how dynamic Dravit is.

Such an amazing color.

BigW03rm, Happy to see you ended up ordering the car!! DG over KO is a freaking stunning combo. The fact you went full leather just seals the deal...I couldnt make up my mind btw TBII and DG. I alternated weekly. Did you get an M3Cx or an M3C?

[Alarmin]

Just joined the Dravit Crew (Unless I panic change to black or Skyscraper lol)! Any opinions on Bicolor vs black 826m's on Dravit? Love the blacked out look of rims but seems the design gets a little lost in the color - any opinions would be appreciated!

I did black 826Ms on mine. I think the by color looks clean. But I wanted a more sinister look myself.

And I know what you mean about switching. I went from black sapphire with fiona red to Dravit with full Kylami orange. I love black, but so much gets lost in all black cars that they dont stand out. Plus black is a PITA to maintain. Im sure Dravit will not be as easy to keep clean either. But at least you can see all the curves and with the flake, it changes color so drastically.

I think you made the right call. What interior did you choose?

Yeah that's the thing, these are the most aggressive looking cars BMW has put out in a long time and I wanted my build to be like a "Mean Luxury Racecar" so I might swap to the black 826ms. And I agree, I was gonna do black til I saw a black m3 with shadowline drive by the other day and you couldn't really tell anything about its curves and features.

I decided on Dravit on full Silverstone/Black with the bicolor 826ms over red calipers

Dravit with extended Silverstone for me and I switched to Black wheels because my wife said it looks more aggressive.
