I'm a big British Racing Green fan but surprisingly I like IoMG better as it pops like few other greens do.

Sorry, green just isn't a BMW colour.

It's a sporty brand, not a grandpa one.

Lol I'm being harsh for sure. BMW has done some dark greens in the past, it's just my personal bias that's all.

Definitely some points for uniqueness given all the black/white cars running around.

I just think BRG looks a bit dull compared to the newer paints. I would definitely not pass on Isle of Man Green for this.

While the color itself is great, it is too elegant for the aggressive design language of the car, I don't think that suits it IMHO.

Old school but a classic

Not sure if I'd specify my £80k car in it though.

Sure, IoMG looks more "spectacular" and is louder. But not everybody wants that, so it's good to have alternatives. I like it personally and I actually think it suits the G80 well.

Car looks fantastic. Must say though that first image looks very light for BRG, unless BMW have a different interpretation.

My F Type BRG in the sun, very different colour.

Too light for BRG.

A few individual greens to choose from and I'd say Boston or even Irish green.

Boston, BRG and Irish.

I mean, they offer you for nothing IOMG.
It's in my opinion the best green I have ever seen and nearly went with it, and I hate green. But when I see the IOMG I melt, it's incredible!

Why in the world would someone pick a color so bold and boring like this one over the IOMG?

I mean, you have to be into green to pick this, but then just go for IOMG...just my 2 cents.

I get that you like IoMG and you've ordered it if I remember correctly, but people are different. I'm not saying IoMG is super loud, but it's a louder color and not everyone likes that. If someone likes green but prefers to be a bit more under the radar, then he'd probably rather get BRG.
