2022 G80 M3 Competition in Twilight Purple with M Perf CF Parts & IND Painted Parts

Considering getting the same color. Is there an aggressive metallic effect or is it very subtly? Really hard to tell from photos.

It's a very dynamic color but I wouldn't call it overly metallic looking. No where close to some of the more metallic individual colors like Java Green imho.

What do you mean by dynamic? Is it different shades of purple as light sources change?

That last picture…….holy shit!!

Yeah, that's something else. How does the metallic effect compare to the tanzanite blue. My other concern is that it's not visibly purple when there isn't direct light hitting the surface. Is that just in the photos?

I'd say TB has more metallic flake to it than Twilight Purple.

It's still visibly purple in lower light situations but a very dark/deep purple versus out in the sunlight.

Perfect. My biggest concern was that in low light it wouldn't be visibly purple which isn't the case. Done deal then

Noticed you have the CF pack. Does it bother you that the rear diffuser is half CF/half glossy black?

Thanks for your replies, this is super helpful.

Glad I could help!

And no, doesn't bother me in the least bit about the CF diffusor and the carbon pkg.
