I like it — congrats! The bronze highlights in Dravit are sufficiently subtle that you don’t have to specify an interior color to match it. And a bold color combination beats gray-over-black any day, in my book.

I was going to spec Dravit over Tartufo for my G80, until the allocation in hand was for a G82. For the coupe Tanzanite over Silverstone appealed to me more. I just have a soft spot for Tartufo in a sedan.

I feel they look best on a brooklyn grey, white, or black car.
Stunning, especially with the CB seats. Kudos on the manual. So much fun

Love the color combo. I was skeptical about the Fjord Blue Interior since some photos i've seen were dispicting it to be a light blue. But from your photos, it looks solid.

Very cool interior color and a nice alternative to the oranges and reds. Well done.

Same! I was scared of it being too light also, but it's literally just right. I appreciate the compliment!

Love the combo, only change would be to drop the carbon fiber mirror package, but most people like that, I am in the minority on that one. Beautiful spec! Wheels, colors for brakes, interior etc. Manual Tranny!!

AND I have to say, I'm not a fan of Dravit, Fjord, or Orbit gray wheels!

But all together... I really, really like this. Especially with your blue calipers.

Nice work!

Great spec. I went with dravit and full black merino. I figured black was playing it safe, but fjord blue and kyalami orange I think work really well with dravit. If I could spec all over again, I likely would have gone with fjord blue. Congrats and enjoy it!

Love the fjord interior. Can anyone confirm the color of the stitching on the dash and door card when you have full leather with fjord? Is the blue or silver? Thanks?

I think it goes well with the Dravit. Ties in the blue of the calipers. Dravit is amazing. But I may be bias.

Fjord blue is definitely much lighter than it appears in the builder on the BMW website (it almost looks navy/dark blue), but I think it works perfectly on your car! I think the blue interior would work on almost any shade of grey or a black car.

Beautiful combo with Dravit!

Can you confirm which wheels you have? Are they the orbit grey? Would love to know, thanks!

Don't be nervous. If there is one option I would definitely never change on mine is the interior color. But with your color all interiors will be awesome. Good luck!

I believe same color as the leather it's on (blue on blue, black on black, etc.). Will confirm though

Damn. I really like this. Trying to spec a 6MT M4. I personally don't like red in DG, love tartufo but feels too safe in a coupe, ditto for black, silverstone and ivory are my least two favorites in general. That leaves KO and Fjord blue. Hmmm.

Since you are one of the few to have this combo, a couple of questions:

Does having the full leather feel important to the total package? I honestly mostly like Tartufo in full and prefer extended leaving the black dash bits to mesh with the black in the two tone interior colors; also 2550 is a tough pill to swallow when considering CF exterior is a lock for me and the added cost of the paint job.

Could you see the 825M bicolors working with this? I'm probably overthinking it but I like the exposed silver/shiny parts of those rims matching the chrome badges on the base model.

When I ordered my frozen portimao blue, I almost spec'd it with Fjord Blue.. I am happy with Kyalami Orange but would not have hated Fjord Blue either.

Thanks for sharing!
