If it's a deeper blue like this, I could dig it...



If it's a lighter baby blue / pastel blue like the laundry room above though...BLEH. Avus blue, tanzanite blue, all the darker blues look far better imo.

My cousins buddy texted him the other day saying he just bought a 2018 X4M. When he sent my cousin the photos, it was an X4 M-sport. My cousins buddy was adamant it was an X4M even though they hadn't existed yet.

Just an example of why Bmw does what they do.

...and Audi, and Mercedes, and.....! I still think that's a page out of the other manufacturer's playbooks that BMW should've ignored. The ///M brand whoring sucks.

Have the M police come to M town ?

Welcome to the 90s.

Real M cars have individual throttle bodies...

Not a big deal to me but agreed. ZSP was much better for non M-cars and A LOT cheaper, fancy wheels, excellent seats and suspension for less than half of an M-Sport package that is now an even pricier M performance car.

I have AW with the dark 19’s on my F80 but when I see a nice Silverstone with the light 19’s I sometimes second guess my choice so I’m curious what the Blue will look like and if it will be available on the G82.

That's funny, I had a dispute with a relative who thought I was hating when I told him his 335i with a M Sport package wasn't a real 'M car' but he retorted that "It came with M badges"

BMW knows what they're doing by prancing on consumer's ignorance.

Interesting, what I see in pictures bluestone looks close to space grey in low/soft light and more blueish in bright light. It looks to have more depth than Silverstone that is a very nice but quite flat color.

If it's going to have pig nostrils as a grille, I think I'd rather just drive an A5.

So sdrive for the regular 3, why for the 4?
No manual for the regular 3, I assume it'll be the same.

Where is Titansilver color code? Are silvers banned on new BMW's?

+1, one of the best colours of all times. If it is available, you cannot select it with an M-pack most of the time.

I assume the Mx40i will be either sdrive or xdrive in the US, both for the 3er and 4er. The latter wasn't clear until now (might have been xdrive-only).
