Brooklyn Grey looks great on the G87, so I wouldn’t lose sleep over that. I just have autistic levels of desire for green cars, so I am really hoping that I can have a green G87 without needing to spend just as much, if not more, on a wrap instead of Indy.

I expect that a power bump is on paper only, so I, too, wouldn’t have any FOMO about that.

I’m amenable to a “slower” AWD M2 compared to the M4. A 3.2s M2 that grips like a bitch in the corners would be something I’d be absolutely stoked about.

Does the M2 need AWD!? it's got 275 section front tyres for goodness sake lol .. does having x-drive on the M3/M4 deaden the steering even moreso?

I mean you don’t have to get it, but I would be one of the folks to choose it over RWD. I had my fun going sideways in my E30s, but I gotta say that my risk appetite isn’t large enough to do that in a car worth what the G87 is. Call me what you want, but that’s just me.

Yeah…loved the idea of Purple and I really like Java Green but Voodoo Blue is going to have to be it for me. Too good to pass up.

Wait hol up, so it’s just like a selection of a few colors, and not “Individual”? Do you believe this is what the “490” was referencing?

Was hoping for LCI, but we all knew that’d be a MY26 thing.

Throw a stealth PPF on that thing and you’ll break necks. I’m stuck between that and voodoo.

Trying my hardest to not text my CA and calculating how much I’d lose on my current ZB in a trade in.

Yeah I was think Voodoo as well but I know a lot of peeps will go with that. I just googled some pics of TP on an M3/M4 and it looks amazing.

Only question is will these color options be the $2,350 like the frozen paints are currently on the configurator of will they be $4,500? Hoping the former.

I suspect they will be the same as the frozen paints. I don’t think this is “Individual,” but I could be wrong. I think it’s just expanded “cost plus” paint options.

I think TP will be more eye catching, IMO.

Individual colors for the G87 that were first reported by BMWBLOG nearly a year ago here and here are confirmed for MY25.


Gigior Telesto Pearl Effect Metallic



Twilight Purple Pearl Metallic



Voodooblue



Java Green II Metallic

Man, that Grigio Telesto Pearl is so nice... so is that Voodoo Blue..... the other two don't do it for me, Java Green feels like that RS3 launch color.

I like these new colors but for $2350 - $4500 potentially I'm not that pressed over getting a '24. Still curious to see the confirmed MSRP bump also.
