I'm really excited about all these color choices. This might be the craziest color palette since the E36 M3 days. Blue, red, yellow and green. Just missing purple like Daytona Violet and Techno Violet.

It's about time

No this was tastefully done. The seats were truly stunning, despite looking terrifyingly uncomfortable. Looks like the seat, if this is the end result, will fit most 16 year old lanky boys. Everyone else will need a stick of butter and a girdle to fit between the bolsters. It was the only blue in the car, and you didn't second guess it.

The CSL Hommage has separate pieces, giving a natural break line. Stylistically, that accent is what is being referred to.

No you aren’t, the E90’s mechanical bolsters worked better for me. Need to use the thighs and obliques a bit more in the F80

I saw this in person and liked it as a package.. ext color, gloss black grills, two tone racing seats and the overall aesthetics. To me the grill is an evolution and does not look excessive like the one on the 7 series.

There is AwD option coming per the BMW NA lady. Smoke black tail lights are also going to be an option.

There's quite a number of "heritage" colors that appear in the database. Then again, I think there might be a glitch in the matrix.

If they were amused at speculation about what these look like that means they're monitoring forums like this.

And if that's the case, let's hope their eyes fall on the m3 touring thread and see how bad people want it over here on this side of the pond.

So after reading this I actually went back and watched the video that BMW M released last month and you can see the blue color seats OP mentioned. Didn’t notice before as they blended in with the jeans.

Saw it today ... the color looks like hi-lighter yellow, no metallic flake. The seats look great for the track, not so sure as a daily. The blue suede/alcantara? Looks nice but not with that exterior in my opinion. The car looks like a smaller M8. Oddly the trunk had no M4 badge, only on the side fender vents (M4 competition)
The size of the car compared to the current F82 makes you forget about the front grilles.

The bmw rep said 9/23 full details ... she was kinda reserved when asked about the car.

I'm just surprised someone hasn't managed to get a photo of this car yet. Someone's gotta be able to sneak a mini camera past BMW security lol!

I don't think most people liked Austin Yellow. Personally I wasn't a fan either, this shade looks nicer and closer to the E46 M3's Phoenix Yellow.

So Monticello was the first event that was held. Texas was cancelled 2 days before it was supposed to start. Atlanta was cancelled.
They had to fly people in and have them quarantine in NY for 15 days before the event or use local people who did not need to quarantine.
Everyone was wearing masks. They cut out the hot laps at the end. You had the option of driving alone or with a passenger.

Wonder if that was the color combo the OP saw?
