Which Individual color for my F80 M3?

Hi.

Looking at ordering a F80 M3 in UK.

I was orginally wanting laguna seca blue with Golden brown interior.

But sadly in Uk they have stopped it.

So the Other two options are these.

1. Atlantis Blue and Golden brown

2. Imola Red and Golden Brown.

I have already a Laguna Seca blue E46 m3 Vert with cinnamon interior.

Just stuck what to go for.

What is your opinions.

Since you wanted a blue originally (Laguna Seca), then I'd go with Atlantic blue. It is a very striking color

Personally I don’t think I would spend the money on an individual color but if I did and those were the 2 choices, I’d say Imola red.

What do you meant the they stopped letting you get LSB in the UK; what is up with that?

I have LSB and I couldn’t imagine another color on my car, buuuuuut, I saw a Porsche the other day driving in the opposite direction and it was a blue I never saw before on a car and I wanted it. I know it’s not Mexican Blue because I saw that on an M4 at Welt when I did my delivery, but it could be Miami blue. I’ve seen some pics of Miami blue, but nothing in person yet and the pics don’t seem as unique as what I saw, but close enough to think it could be it. I only have a handful of pics I’ve taken where it actually looks like LSB on my car, so I’m guessing the same may happen to Miami blue.

Been seeing a bunch of Atlantis F80s around the forums and instagram lately. I'd personally go with Imola as it looks damn good on the F80.

Atlantis seems like one of the more popular individual colors here.

LBB? Similar to Atlantis. Less people have it. Plus, since it’s a Bmw color, it costs $3k less and shortens the build process by months.

It just doesn’t work like that.

Atlantis blue would be my choice. Its just a cool ass color, especially in bright sun with the metallic shining.

You’re just going to get opinions here (mine is atlantis blue), but is that helpful?

Which sings to you more?

Care to clarify?
Choosing a Bmw color for individual is indeed a lot cheaper ($1,950) and I’m almost certain takes much shorter for a build time.
