Thanks. For sure MG is the lowest contrast with the CF roof, and to me this is one of the draws of MG. I expected it to be with BS, but the roof is more gray than black.

I frankly do not like MG on the regular F3X, and had ruled it out for that reason. But "the devil is in the details" and there are enough differences in the F8X (bulges, curves, the roof, the wheels) that make the color much more appealing on this design. I'd seen multiple pictures where I thought MG looked good, but didn't trust them. Now that I've seen it in person, it looked good.

But eating some crow on my prior critique of BMW's colorists - all of the colors looked good in person in sunlight. I won't go so far as to say there is something for everyone because even if YMB looks good it isn't the same thing as an Estoril or other such deeper blue. But this initial selection is pretty decent.
Thanks again for the info.
