Wish they included San Marino Blue as an individual option in the configurator. That is the color to have!
I was originally taken by tanzanite, but like the pictures showed, it is mostly black if not in direct sunlight. In fact, when I saw it in person, I was pretty underwhelmed...

In the dealership, we can pull your build and show your order car to you like this...very neat system.

I've never been a fan of green cars, but that IOM green with black wheels looks amazing!!!

Personally I like the "black when dull, blue when bright", character of Azurite.

My M4 was TZB and I would 100% not pick this colour again.
Where I live (Scotland) the colour rarely gets a chance to show it's full potential. It looks dark Blue under anything apart from very bright and direct sunlight. It is stunning in the right conditions, but that's unfortunately rare where I live I also found the paint very soft and prone to scratching and blemishes. My detailer said it was one of the worst colours for marking he had encountered. I'll really need to see a few colours in the metal before deciding on this one. Torn between Brooklyn Grey, IOMG and SP Yellow.

I see a lot of comments on the Tanzanite and I agree with them. It's exceptionally beautiful and vibrant in full sun but for your extra money...does get dirty very quickly, isn't an M Exclusive colour and looks black/dark in most kosher other than sun. I had an F80 in Azurite Black and the properties are identical of the tones a little different, this being more black.
Quick pic for comparison. I commented that Joe should go Isle of Man green for his car.

Looks like IOMG being the launch colour is going to be the popular choice for the G80 kinda like LBB was for the M2. Personally I think Dravit, BG or Black with KO looks the business!

Watching 50 minutes of a guy making an order for his car is kind of too much for me

I owned TB and I would 100% do it again. It's dark enough to hide the horrible front end this time around too. If I ordered a G80 I would do TB with the Silverstone.

I'm still holding out hope BMW adds an extra color or two to the order guide next year LOL.
I might just cave and go individual and finally get San Marino.
