All joking aside:

I look back on this color more than any other when I walk away. I know its a vanity comment but its real.

I love the multi faceted color scheme it employs with light changes.

I love the uniqueness of the color as well; no one I know has this with an M car.

With the G80 lines, the color compliments the curves and renders it aggressive yet classy.

yea that's exactly the vibe i got off the color as well. it seems like a color that would get a lot of looks just because it is so different and not too loud like SPY. just got a little nervous it may look too burgundy with a purple tint but after seeing the pics you posted I am back on board.

Aventurin Red M3 Competition in the shop today. Expect to see this as part of an upcoming build series in a separate thread, complete with M Carbon Bucket Seats.

KW v4 Coilovers and Titan7s already on the way, as this will also be seeing track time.

Vic, I gotta admit, your photos had me question changing to AR. I am ordered with Skyscraper Grey. Funny thing, most every car or truck I have every owned has ranged from silver to dark grey. I saw Skyscraper and thought "that's it". But this Aventurin is highly tempting. In the end, I guess I am who I am, but I will admire that beautiful color in this thread!

Here is another. More of an OEM+ approach (stock height,specers,remus axle back and ducktail spoiler).

SG is great too--- its what you are willing to own and love for a long period or short. I was slightly apprehensive when I heard about the car in the color being available but I wanted the X drive to see how it was since I already had the G80 Non X Comp in Portimao.

Zero regrets from day one.

Shots at the dealer and first day home

I have no doubts if I saw this at a lot with the options I want (and in the M4 variant) I would have jumped. Really stunning.
