Really really like this whole combo right down to the wheels.

Saturatedfat · 02-24-2021, 11:23 AM

Looks good!

These are the bi-color wheels?

M3AWD · 02-24-2021, 12:57 PM

Looks great! Thanks for posting.

It looks like I'll be going for Portimao Blue on my G80 M3 but I'll do:

- Exterior M Carbon Package
- Interior Carbon Fiber Trim
- Kyalami Orange Interior (or Fiona Red?)
- Kyalami Orange matched Brake Calipers (or Fiona Red?)
- Gold-Bronze powder coated 826M Wheels
- Approx 1 inch drop on MP-HAS or aftermarket springs
- Wheel Spacers
- Medium Tint
- AWD

I always make them remove all dealer logos before delivery unless they're paying me monthly for that advertisement

MachinesWithSouls · 02-24-2021, 02:46 PM

I want to love this color, I really do. I just wish it wasn't the same one available one a 330i...

khoa@x-ph.com · 02-24-2021, 03:00 PM

This color makes the car looking so good!

Wanderer73 · 02-24-2021, 03:29 PM

That is a nice color combination!

oz555 · 02-24-2021, 03:31 PM

Looks sharp. Generally M3 looks a bit sharper than M4.

Gdiddy23 · 02-24-2021, 03:55 PM

But but but that color is available on the regular peasant 3 series

Cabby · 02-24-2021, 03:57 PM

Why would you not get the CF package on your first new M3 for the dealer?

I feel the same way, it's a beautiful color, but it doesn't look special like a LeMans or Yas Marina blue.

SteveChester · 02-24-2021, 04:28 PM

M3 defo a better looker than the M4.....

Could be worse, like black, white, or grey. I'd take Portimao over yellow and IoM Green (but that does come in a close second).

Honestly I think Silverstone interior would match way better with PB.

Or maybe the Yas Marina Blue , but I feel like that would be too much blue.

Blue and Orange or Blue + Red , imo doesn't go together at all. That whole superman look is very tacky. But to each their own

Aint that the truth. And this coming from all us coupe guys

Definitely going M3 this time around.

On the F platform the M4 was a perfect size, especially from that profile angle. Even tho I loved the wheel arches on the M3 , I went with the 2 door.

But on the current generation , totally different story. I just wish the rear taillights on the new M3 were the same ones from the 4. My only gripe

Hopefully the LCI next year brings even a small refresh to the taillights, I'll be more than happy.

RyanBMW · 02-24-2021, 05:14 PM

Good looking Blue I guess, but Not that special.

TB IS MUCH MUCH BETTER!!

ShockArrival · 02-24-2021, 06:08 PM

"The Ultimate Machine"

That color doesn't suck, and even the normal seats are looking pretty nice! Thanks for sharing.

Tflong24 · 02-24-2021, 06:52 PM

Another great driving and track review. So much better then the hundreds of "look at this color" posts.

Agreed! Nice exterior and interior color combination. Replace the black wheels with silver ones and it's perfect.
