Frozen Portimao Blue M3 G80 and Toronto Red M4 G82 at dealer
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I have an order on an m3 g80 Toronto Red and I'm very pleased with the color that I saw on the m4 at the dealer. It has an orange hue to it. I'm definitely more fan of the m3. The bucket seats are a no brainer. The production date for mine is planned for 22 February. I will try to go back to the dealer to do some decent photo with my DSLR but for the moment "enjoy" the smartphone pictures *** EDIT *** I went back to the dealer with my DSLR I have a neutral color profile so the color should be as close as possible to the real tone I notify a huge gap on the M4 rear wheel I can put my entire 5 fingers it is not the case on the m3 No interior pictures as it is the full black interior with carbon bucket seats. One note about the carbon bucket seat it is actually harder for me to get in these seats than a bucket seat from a lotus elise/exige On the lotus you can help yourself with the chassis frame next to the door but on the m3/m4 the chassis from is way lower than the seat itself. *** THE M4 *** *** THE M3 *** Last edited by supralex; 01-29-2021 at 05:01 AM.. |

These frozen colors are fire! Thanks for these shots, you captured TR really well with the orange hue in the second rear angle.

this makes me wish I had gone with Frozen PB instead of TR. This thread is rubbing it in my face what my initial build was versus what I changed it to lol.

I just can't see myself in a matte car as I would really like a shiny & reflective finish on the G80.

About to order an X3MC, and Toronto Red and Phytonic Blue are the finalists for exterior, although probably TR. Really loved it in person. Definitely has that bit of orange hue depending on lighting. Reminds me of Sakhir Orange in some pics.

Is it me or does the rear wheel on the M3 look like it doesn't sit flush with the fender arch? Almost looks like it's running skinny winter tires - was that the case?

I have to see the TR in person. I was leaning toward that TR but I'm finding it accentuates the black too much and at the same time the red and black are competing with each other. It also seems to make the grill more pronounced
I'm just thinking visual hierarchy. Just not feeling it the more I see it. The frozen Orange does look good though as it seems to blend better with the black bits. I may go IMG or Portimao Blue on a G80 as darker colors seem to look better unfortunately. Or go individual. I have a year to decide. |

Am I the only one who don't like matt colors? To me matt looks like wrapp cars. Metallic paint is the real thing. So vivid so live. So much character.

Better than sakhir. Hated how that got brown like a turd on a cloudy day. But this isn't quite as red or beautiful as Melbourne IMO.
Overall, it's nice to see a real red back in the lineup. Even if it has an orange hue. |

Frozen colors were not a priority for me - until now. Frozen Portimao Blue looks phenomenal.

I would consider Frozen Black or Blue until I watched what it takes to maintain. Absolute nightmare. Also if you get a scratch you can't buff it out you need to repaint the whole panel and hope it matches. No thanks even though it does look fire.

I was never a big fan of sakhir orange either. It's like a pseudo-red. Give us the real thing.
