I usually vote for AW but it's probably not the best color for the M4.

That combo is going to polarize the community. I can't wait to see it.

I like this Singapore Grey/SO combo:

As a good color combination that looks really good. I just can't feel comfortable in any red interior. It feels like I'm at a either a 50s style diner or an immoral establishment. Just doesn't work for me, wish it did though since as long as I'm not sitting in it, it looks the biz.

I have a aw one now and was going to try something different this time but I may need to stay with aw. The contrast with the carbon fiber roof will be amazing. And the carbon fiber aftermarket accents will look great. Someone mentioned a red interior. Will that be offered or just the orange. What interior will look best with alpine white? Red, orange or maybe black?

But with MG you lose the contrast of CF parts. You might as well get a sunroof then

The reddish-orange is all you get unfortunately.

Yes, unlike M5 above, the only thing SO interior wise in the new M3 are seats and doors. Add the fact that back of the seats are black and CF roof is equipped it'll look awesome.

I wouldn't do it on the M5 though.

Also, I'm not buying a car for for the next owner so I don't give a rat's ass what the popular combos are.

AW does look really nice on the M3/M4 - but this is exactly what I'm afraid of - getting bored with it after awhile - only way I could do it is if I had the Sahkir Orange full leather interior...

But even then, I think I'm going AY with black wheels, full black merino leather...(but who knows - knowing me I'll change my mind 600 more times before I order...)

A week ago, my order was AY for sure. I went through a brief SO transition period and now it's YMB for sure. Will I be able to get Amaro Brown interior from the Individual program on an early order? that may change things more...

Here is why (at least for me):

I like the contrast with the roof, the wheels and the carbon fiber ACS pieces that I will end up putting on it. And with SO interior it would look awesome

Grey and black look good too, but the contrast is gone. It all blends in together.
Sakhir - the contrast works great, but the rear lights blend in the body color, and interior has to be dark and cannot be Sakhir
AY and YB are pretty cool and create contrast, but both would look like crap with a SO interior
Silvertone - is just plain boring
Mineral white - if you want contrast, might as well go for the brighter AW instead
You sir understand perfectly what was on my mind!

I think carbon fiber looks sick on mineral grey. Right now im 80% MG with SO and 20% YMB with black. I am scared of silverstone interior.

That would be a nice combo. Space gray looks great with a cf roof

I'll go aw with beige but am considering mw, with ymb as an outside chance

Silverstone leather looked really nice on the M6 I saw at my dealer (with Space Gray). Would consider it with Mineral Gray, but not white. Not a good interior color for a family car, though.

People, learn to resize your photos. I've got a 24" monitor and I still have to scroll.
