Definitely not from you though. Like how do you not get that? Lmao You tried to talked to me over on IG then you went on here. Stop the meat riding my boy.

Didn’t even get all the other options on your build and yet calling people’s car basic. 🤡

You're welcome. But I left out that you need to get that front grille swapped out for one of the aftermarket ones. The color looks so good and I was distracted by the list of BMWs you've owned that I forgot to be a pest about that.

I'm running the Adro front end, but it needs to be repainted, did not match as well as I would have hoped.

Adro Front end repainted, since the original attempt did not match and added CSL DRL.

Sorry for the not so great picture, its just a preview

Specs:
2024 BMW M4 Competition xDrive
Individual Verde British Racing
Tartufo Merino Leather
Carbon Fiber Trim
Executive Package
Laser / Shadowline Headlights

Already has the MAD Single Midpipe, and SST Valve Controller. Lowered on H&R Sport Springs with 13mm spacers up front, and 15mm spacers in the rear.

This is my 29th M car, and my third G82 Competition xDrive. My Adro front end that was on my previous Sao Paulo G82x will find its way back on to this car within the week.
Damn I’m not usually a fan of green cars but this is incredible.
I’m drooling at the thought of stealth PPFing this.

Thanks for the photos. Due to the rarity of this color, it is hard to find other pics on an M4.

My individual order for V BRG was finally accepted and awaiting production. I likely won’t see it until November. I am still trying to decide what style and color of aftermarket wheels I am going to add.

That’s because there is only one G82 painted in the color. I know of a few G80s painted in the color.

Hopefully you actually get yours painted in VBR. Last I heard from BMW several months ago they were not allowed to paint Ferrari colors anymore. I wonder if you’ll just get regular 312 British Racing Green.

This is interessting! Maybe I get, that Ferrari has some "brand protection" on the paint color name ... but on the paint? Would be weird! I mean: How the VBR color is mixed from base paints (RGB/CMYK) is known .. and I can't think, that Ferrari can protect this mixture ... but maybe I'm wrong

I sent another message to my dealer confirming the correct paint code.

Verde British Racing is P6E for bmw.

Don’t underestimate Ferrari and their ability to be a pain in the rear.

It was a nightmare for me trying to get my adro front end to match. They ended up just putting a camera to the car.

Thanks for the info. I don’t underestimate Ferrari. They are well known for protecting their brand. I have the entire color chart with the codes.

I will have a very candid conversation with my dealer if this turns out to be true. If it is, I have a decision to make… Change individual colors or walk away. I wanted something unique.

Dealer just sent me the screen shot of the order acceptance. It clearly shows Verde BRG P6E.

The color was restricted from about September of last year up until what I would assume now. The color is also not called verde British racing green, it’s just Verde British Racing. Verde means green in Italian.

I guess Ferrari had a change of heart. If your car is a g82 then you’ll be 1 of 2. If it’s a G80, then I think you’ll be the fourth.

I guess this means the other four Ferrari colors are also no longer restricted.

Something to note if you ever need touch up paint for chips etc. scratches happen.com and have them use the Ferrari paint code for the color. That was dead on for me. Nothing comes up with the bmw code.

I was just giving you stats on how rare the color is. It’s overlooked a lot for the more popular British Racing Green. Which is a little bit lighter.

If you want to see more pictures of what the color is really like, the way bmw paints this color, it is a dead on match for how Ferrari paints it. It was more common on the 458.

Looks great. I think I like VBR over BRG! Tartufo matches perfectly!
