Oyster in mine as well and not a single regret. Looks as good as I imagined it would.

On the fence between this color and portimao blue. Seriously considering one painted in both colors at this point. 😆

Anyone else in the same boat? Do you regret going with SO over PB or vice versa? Southern CA here.

I considered getting SO but got PB instead. Drove a loaner 330i in SO for a weekend months back when my F30 was in the shop. It got too much unwanted attention.

I'm all about having an aggressively styled vehicle, but I would worry about the orange sticking out too much in parking lots etc. The PB was will still stand out but not quite as much IMO. All up to what you're looking for!

In the limited time I had the vehicle, boy racers were pulling up to me and had a couple of random people come up to me at gas stations asking about the vehicle.

It doesn't bother me a ton but for some it might.

Are you pleased with PB or do you regret not going with SO?
