Bucket seats will only be available with one interior type, the full merino.
  • Metallic colors:
    • Black Sapphire (475)
    • Brooklyn Grey (C4P/WC4P)
    • Toronto Red (C3G)
  • Uni color:
    • Zandvoort Blue (C6E)




The new ///M color Zandvoort Blue (uni color) - a kind of baby blue pastel color - is similar to Space Race Metal (metallic color) of the BMW 2002 Hommage Concept (2016) (see here and here).

Praying there's an individual option from the get go. If the wait is too long, I'll be going BG.

That's a really limited choice of colors. Surely they'll offer Alpine white also right? And what about a nice bright blue like portimao? Not pleased with this list and may sway me to wait if true.

I voted for Zandvoort Blue but i will wait until the official reveal to decide.I would assume that Alpine White would also be available but then why wouldn’t it be on the list.It makes me think that these four colors are going to be the only colors available until the LCI.Remember there were only 4 colors when the F87 was released.

Already have a BSM M240i so nah, not a red car guy, not feeling BG (not a fan of the blue undertones) and not really feeling the UNC blue of Zandvoort. I'm afraid Alpine white or Mineral will end up being my pick. Chalk might've been my pick for individual but really don't wanna pay several thousand dollars for it.

Arg!

Would suck if there are only 4 colors, since Brooklyn grey and zandvoort are similar in tone.

None of the above, but Alpine White will be a standard color and I would possibly go that route. Like Game I want individual paint and would delay 3-4 months in order to get it in the event that BMW has a later SOP for individual paints.

Don't care for any of the known colors so far. Hopefully the palette has more colors.

BMW M posted these individual colors today for the M3 Touring. Wonder if these will be offered for the G80/2/7 as well at some point.

If Individual is an option when I place the order, we'd probably go that route. We'd be looking for an allocation around late summer next year.

Hopefully IoMG is available as a standard color if no Individual. I think SPY would look good, but it's a hard sell to the wife, as she will be driving it as a daily.

Out of those above, Speed Yellow is the only one that is grabbing my attention.

Just old and grouchy, but I totally relate to this;

I was looking at Speed Yellow last week on the individualizer and added it to my list. I do like it on a 997 911. It works well for it.

Seems like there should be an individual option in the poll.
