I am probably most surprised the interiors will all be variants of black... unless it is referring to dash and carpets?

Looking at the MX3 palette surprised the Adelaide/red combo won't be coming....

I almost got an HS M2C recently but went for something else. I would really like HS on a manual G80 ...

I considered one as well, but didn't want to get rid of my ///M4 in order to purchase one.

Silver is disappearing from most cars on the market, I've heard it causes some issue with autonomous driving cameras or something like that so it isn't offered until that issue is solved.

Wait, so the G80 M3 is going to be available in both San Remo Green (which we already know will also be available on the 4 Series) and the M exclusive Isle of Man Green? Even as I'm sure they'll be very different colors, that's a lot of green. We've gone from zero to two. Not a complaint, just an observation.

Isle of Man Green is like a Teal kind of hue. San Remo is more darker-blackish green. São Paulo Yellow is like MINI's Signal Yellow.
Contributes to the wide mouth Frog look of the facia

Thanks for that update. I'm starting to be excited by this color palette.

With the right interior and wheel package, that color could really pop.

Same here. Tried googling it but didn't find much. I do wish it had a little less grey to it than what it seems like in that render.

We need a legit silver option at launch IMO. I'll also wish for a surprise SMB as a standard color (unlikely, I know). Still probably my favorite color of all time.

Isle of Man green could be interesting... I love greens but fiance is meh on them so it would have to pass the wife-test. Now I'm curious to see more of this Arctic Race Blue as this could be a contender, too.

Thanks Fuhro. One suggestion: use the G80/G82 renders. Or maybe these F80/F82 images are being created by some production BMW visualizer app I'm unaware of?

Anyway, I'm thinking that a San Remo greenhouse, hood, and decklid; Isle of Man fenders/quarters; and São Paulo doors/side skirts would be the hot ticket. Will BMW Individual do one like that? I figure that would draw everyone's attention completely away from the the grill.

Arctic Race Blue is the launch colour for the M440i Coupe.
