That would explain the incredibly bright comment...anything with birch green tones is going to be intense. Too intense for me but also really contrast nicely with CF and black parts.

Yes it's solid/uni. The color is inspired by the stays of Ponte Estaiada.

Someone else posted in the IoMG G80/M3 thread that the seats seemed quite bright. Does this look accurate?

Wow, I forgot that this concept had that color. And it also has what looks like the black lower body paint job that was discussed in another thread!

For what it's worth, that color was called "Golf Yellow" and is not the same shade as Sao Paulo. Certainly they are both bright yellow colors, but it's not clear how similar they would actually appear when viewed in real life.

I've been doing this event for 4 years and each year managed to show up in a different M car so I likely wasn't in your group last year if you drove with a CS owner. This car is new as of April.
Are these the same wheels we've been seeing on the test mules?

Is the black on the lower part of the homage painted with the laser technology you mentioned? It looks to fit the description from the member who reported it on the G80.

Not identical but possible to mistake with some dust on the Golf car.

AY on the other hand is in another palette.
