Brooklyn vs. Skyscaper

merlin3008 · 05-29-2021, 08:29 PM

Now that Skyscraper Gray is available on the 2022, is anyone reconsidering their spec? I was thinking Brooklyn Gray, but now I'm debating. Brooklyn is pretty unique, but Skyscraper has a classic look and goes great with the Tartufo interior. Thoughts?

I've been going back and forth between BG or Skyscraper over Fiona Red. I really like BG, but I like the dark grey metallic color that's offered with Skyscraper. Ugh! First world problems.

These are the two colors I’ve narrowed it down to. I would prefer skyscraper, but I don’t know if it’ll be available in the US by the time I order. Did I miss some announcement on skyscraper becoming available on 2022’s?

MY22 Order Guide dropped and someone was kind enough to post it.

Does anyone know if Skyscraper Gray has been offered on any other BMW's recently? I'm trying to find this color in the flesh so I can make a decision.

No, it's a new color

skyscraper grey is a grey offered only only onto the M3 and M4. We can name it as an M3/4 color: for comparison, the brands hatch grey is offered only onto the v8 M models.

I've ordered mine skyscraper because is a specific M3/4 colour.

It's a new colour. Doesn't stop it being offered on other BMWs, however. It's just been added to the 2 Series Gran Coupe.

It's not unique to the M3/M4. Skyscraper Grey has now been added to the pallette of the 2 Series Gran Coupe.
