Aaah ... my bad. Thanks for the correction. Gorgeous either way. The both of them. So I guess Tanzanite is more of a blue-ish Black Sapphire?

TZB pops!! I like the color but I was afraid it would look flat like my old midnight blue GTO.. this is clearly a more dynamic paint.

TunedM2C · 12-02-2014, 09:24 AM

Looks fantastic. Something tells me this will be a $500 option instead of a $1,900 one in the near future.

MJones3 · 12-02-2014, 01:51 PM

Tanzanite is definately my favourite color for the F8x, looks amazing!

Tony135 · 12-02-2014, 02:45 PM

Looks great!

John Tanglewood · 12-02-2014, 02:54 PM

Can't wait to get one in this same color!!! Looks great!

Omar@VelosDesignwerks · 12-02-2014, 03:08 PM

Nice! Looking forward to the pictures in the sun.

WSCJR · 12-02-2014, 03:27 PM

Just curious about all the shopping carts in the parking garage. The hair stands up on the back of my neck whenever I see one anywhere close to my car.

JSP///M4C · 12-02-2014, 06:38 PM

That shoppig cart looks dangerous. Just saying...

damnitBobby · 12-02-2014, 07:12 PM

Love the way it shimmers in the light! Great video!

Dinh335 · 12-02-2014, 08:21 PM

Congrats OP! I'll be joining club Tanzanite in about a month.

I will say the curse of the poorly lit Tanzanite pictures strikes again!

greedily requesting some more purposed shots and angles in some light.

Thanks and congrats.

Lynchmob6 · 12-02-2014, 09:02 PM

Nice!

Pharmacist_ · 12-02-2014, 09:22 PM

There is an M6 GC around here somewhere with the same combo. Sexy!

Edit:

What is the red color on the M5?

RowanBuds · 12-03-2014, 10:52 AM

Any chance a forum member could shop the first, fourth, or the fifth photo with the 19" light alloy wheels on it?

Do you mean SILVER 19" wheels? Because the wheels here are 19".

RowanBuds · 12-03-2014, 03:22 PM

Yes, I do. On the BMWUSA configurator the 19" options are listed as light alloy or black light alloy. Apologies, I could have certainly been more clear about this.

If you go to the bmw uk site you can build a car in Tanzanite which will give you a decent idea.
