Individual Atlantis Blue G82 M4

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Finally picked up yesterday, the colour is so impressive and dynamic.
Photos cannot actually show the real colour in person.
I think it's closer to Snapper Rocks rather than long beach blue.

Parts:
M performance spoiler
Vorsteiner CF front lip

Going to install KW HAS spring next week.

In Canada all MP parts are installed at dealership, so the car comes with the small spoiler from factory.

The dealer removed the small one after installing the big wing, but I prefer to keep both so sticked it back by myself.

I just put my order in for an Atlantis M4 coupe with ivory carbon buckets. How was your experience with individual colours and BMW Canada?

Congratulations!! Definitely the best color, no bias here

You’ll have to download some editing software to show the true color, the camera only picks up blue even though the reality is very very teal

I use Lightroom (iPhone App)... but you just need any editing software/app that let's you change the hue. Play around with it and in Lightroom you can save the settings... you'll need to adjust it different depending on the lighting situation.

Great spec! I think individual color doesn't cause longer production time but logistics is a big problem, you can find more info in Canada forum

Rich deep metallic color!

It's your car, but I suggest rethinking the dual spoiler look.

Thanks for your photos. I have found it so confusing to understand the difference between Atlantis and Snapper. Even in this thread, your photos make Atlantis look much more blue than the other guy. Every one of his photos look teal. But he indicates in his reply that it is more teal?

I hope that "in the real", your photos are much more color accurate. But by the words of Mar48, his photos are more true, so I guess Atlantis Blue = teal.

Mar48's photos are more accurate, but this colour looks different based on lighting conditions, so no photos can 100% reflect the real colour, you may need to figure it out in person.
I met an old Snapper 4 series in the parking lot today, but they still look quite different, both are teal but Atlantis is deeper and bluer.

But everybody is saying it's gorgeous!
This image is more accurate under indoor lighting

Beautiful car, congratulations. My out going 440 is Snapper Rocks Blue and the color is very close. One of the best things has been that the car is different colors in different light. Very much like the pictures of yours.

I'm still waiting my atlantis m3 to come in (sitting at port atm) and there are times I always second guess my decision, but then I see some of the pics and I get super excited again.

Your car is lovely man, great combo.

I feel this. I’ve never seen the color in person but it was the only color I really wanted for my G05 (Wildberry would have been the dream color but BMWUSA wouldn’t let me have that color or Ametrin which I thought could be a good back up choice). I wish there was a thread of example so long beach blue metallic, snapper rocks metallic and Atlantis metallic side by side.

And comparing your Snapper Rocks photo to the "accurate" Atlantis photos above, Snapper looks more blue and less teal than Atlantis.

Well, if I ever order one, I would try to see a side by side in person. Would be for my wife anyways, not myself, so she can figure it out

Yes, but here it is under overcast skies. It really changes in different light. It even turns upside down.
