What's everyone's colour?
Hi Guys,
I am playing with the idea of changing to an M4 in the next few days... Debating what colour to go with, am stuck with either of the following 3 as being my primary choice: 1. Sakhir Orange 2. Austin Yellow 3. Yas Marina I think those are the three colours that make the M4 stand out from the crowd. Would love your opinion please or some pics of your own motor. |

I've seen your SB, the stealth look is very elegant, and it's very suited with SO interior. My only issue is keeping the black clean. I loved the SO from launch pics as you've said but I've seen it on the showroom and it looked amazing then saw it on the road and it weren't as good. Austin yellow, reminds me of that mustard coloured e46 M3 which I didn't really like the colour much, but it think it suits the M4 better. Right now am leaning towards SO |

I've seen all three and unfortunately all three look really good.
AY looks amazing in sunlight but be prepared for it to look like a "gold" car most of the time, in some lighting a greenish tint barely shines through to show a different side. SO is the weirdest and probably most unique. It looks reddish to light maroon except in sunlight. The first time I walked up to it in the shade I swore it was a red car. The orange metallic looks amazing in the sun. YMB looks like a really light milky blue color, but changes from a light blue to a smurf blue in different lighting and then in the sun the metallic changes the color beautifully. It's the color I chose and get compliments on it everywhere. I had to choose btw an AY and YMB and it took me more than thirty minutes of looking at each from different angles and taking pictures at the dealership.....with my wife's insistence I picked the YMB finally and now maybe the color grew on me but it was the best choice. If I had my choice 100% the way I would want it would be Mineral White with full so leather interior....with YMB a close second with the same interior. I don't care what's rare or common, I care about what I like to look at and be happy in. The silverstone is supposedly the M department's favourite color as it shows the lines the best. Hard choice, all good colors and when you finally take one home it will grow on you and suddenly it's the best color. sorry for the crappy pic...

I love my sunroofs yet I love the overall car look with carbon roof.. I find them very unpopular with the M4's here in the UK. If I go the coupe route, sunroof or not? Confused : |

Tanzanite!!! I love dark navy cars and from a distance or in normal day light it looks lovely. When the sun hits it though it just pops into an amazing vibrant blue which is hard to describe but I am in love with it!
