I like Yas I think it's a fresh color and will turn some heads.
Agreed

I also dislike LSB. I don't know what everyone else see in it, but I see a putrid neon blue that belongs in a circus. Santorini seems to be a conservative version of LSB, and probably why I like it more. Of course solely my opinion.

Hopefully most people don't get YMB, it'll make the color more exclusive to those who do opt for it.

can your order the wheels that were shown on the M4 concept at Pebble Beach. Those looked really good.

Also, when I order I am going to try for Imola Red as a custom color!!

I'm definitely a fan of blue and will be ordering my M3 before seeing most of these colors in person. As of right now it's a toss up between SO w/black interior or YMB w/SS interior. Just not sure if this will be too light of a blue for me.
You have to see it in person. The artificial indoor lighting makes a big difference. The same colour car looked different in Detroit than Toronto due to the lighting temperature.

When I was in Detroit, the lights on the car created a "glowing" effect for YMB. In Toronto, it seemed more darker and appealing. The color seems to look better in a darker setting IMO.

I would definitely be more inclined to go individual if they actually did that!

That's the problem...I'm impatient and don't want to wait for the local dealerships to get one in. I want my car to be one of the first ones they get so I'll end up ordering sight unseen since there is no auto show close by coming up before the actual launch. The more I think about it the more I will probably play it safe by going with Sahkir Orange instead of YMB.

Which car looks better in real life M3 or M4? Watching the photos, for me, the M3 look more aggressive, because it has this huge rear fenders.
One more question about the interior - the f32 is a little bit wider inside that the f30, so is it the same for the f80 anf f82? It feels more comfortable in f32 in the front seats.

I did not like YMB at the Chicago Auto Show. Seemed too baby blue to me, almost a washed out Laguna Seca. Will be interesting to see out in the wild in person.

Man, the show was too hectic due to the sheer amount of people. Hard to get pictures or get any seat time with any of the Mercedes and BMW because that's where most of the volume was at. One thing I can say is, for those who look at internet pictures of the M3/M4 and are skeptical of it's looks, seeing them in person should ease a lot of your doubts. The M3 does look better than the M4, but I'm liking the M4 a bit more than I did.

Hopefully BMW can get some small vehicles out there because the amount of people that were interested in the CLA was absolutely ridiculous! The M235i was there but no one really seemed to care except for those who actually knew about the model and what it represents for BMW.
