Have you seen it in person? What are your thoughts on the color? I've yet to see Skyscraper in person and can't tell where it sits between the greys.

What I gather is: darker and more metallic than Brooklyn. Similar to Oxide but without the gold flake. And way lighter than Dravit.

I was really on the fence between Skyscraper and Dravit. Oxide was too champagne colored for me.

Ultimately I switched my order to BSM, only because I won't be able to see Skyscraper grey before my order goes through. I'm sure when I see it I'll feel like I made a mistake, but I saw a BSM in person and it looks amazing. I just don't want to spend 85k on a car without knowing for sure.

Yes, I already saw my M4C Skyscraper in person and It's exactly the color that you are looking for (as you wrote)! Darker than the Brooklyn and Oxide but lighter than Dravit. It's like in the photo that I post… I took the risk because I never saw this color, only when my own car arrived and it's amazing, love it!

Man you killing me too... I was thinking of switching to dravit grey tomorrow since I am status 047, no allocation. I really want a darker grey, not silver and I was worried it's too light.

That's where I am too. I want darker than silver but lighter than Dravit. Skyscraper is the only non-individual choice but I'm sure it'll look fantastic no matter what

Would you be able to share your video with us all? Keen to see some more videos of skyscraper grey as there aren't many out there. I too am tossing up between Skyscraper and Dravit (with Silverstone Interior and 825M bicolour wheels).

Without seeing either colour in person yet, I'm worried Skyscraper might be too light and silvery against the Silverstone interior, but I'm also not a huge fan of the bronze/army green hue that Dravit has in the sunlight...

you're driving me crazy.

Mine (G80 xdrive) was wxpected to arrive dyring these days, but the proidyction has been delayed to late september. Always wanted in grey beacuse it's easier to maintain and due to the fact that it's also better under the sun, as here in Italy it's becoming hotter year after year during summer, si it helps to preserve as much as possibile the car.

But anyway, I love greys so for me has been a blind obligatory choice. And for what I see, SG is underrated, but really cool onto the G80/82 body shape!

Enjoy your car!!!!!!!! And tell us your impressions as soon as you can.

p.s. wonderful pic....just emphasizes the superb shape of the M4.

Managed to find a car locally that fit my spec 99% (SG, KO, manual) so I put a deposit down, it's just finished production and is in QA check now. Looking forward to posting pics in a month or so hopefully!

Hello from Germany. My US spec Week 32 just arrived at the dealer. No hold, but no parking package either. This pic was taken in direct sunlight.

We just did some painted reflectors in this color and it looks MUCH better in person than the photos.

You guys have the finest paint I've ever seen on BMW parts. Better than OEM / factory finish. Sure wish I could ship some of my E90 parts for my space gray 335i for IND to paint.

So I forgot that the new 2er GC also gets Skyscraper as an option for the 22s, and my dealer just got one in. So I went over to check out the color in person. It's great! Very similar to Space Gray, maybe a touch lighter with more blue than purple in the metallic. I think it's going to look aces on my G80 when it arrives. Anyway, I took some pics in direct sunlight for you guys. Hopefully it helps!
