I was sure about TB but now I’m sure about BSM, lol.
I was also sure about the 826M but am now leaning 825M.

Isn’t it always like this

This is a sharp looking coupe.

I have been going through this for 2 weeks - have it narrowed down to BSM or Dravit over 825 bicolor. Slightly favoring Dravit because it does allow you to see some of the black bits but damn they both look so good. Tilted towards BSM is the fact I've never seen Dravit in person and am afraid I will hate it.

for those of you that did order the BSM did you go with the red or the blue calipers, or go hardcore into the upgrade and go Gold?

I haven’t ordered since I’m waiting for AWD but I will go with red calipers for sure.

My only decision now is 825M or 826M bi color. I prefer the 826M design by a large margin but I want enough contrast in the light areas to be clearly visible and in some pictures the wheels look to be a mix of dark and very dark while in the first video in this thread there is enough lightness. Hmmm, I’m 95% sure an IRL viewing will confirm 826Ms
