TB is an amazing color!!! In direct sunlight it is wow! Even in low light it is distinctly blue, i'd call it a dark Interlagos Blue in low light.
It is a hard color to keep clean, a light layer of dirt/dust and it quickly looses its luster and becomes dull looking. Clean it almost looks wet. Good luck with your choices! At least you have TB as an option, I had to beg BMW. My first request for TB was denied on my M5.

I love Tanzanite! I was very close to getting it, I stuck with Jerez but I really love it.

This may be totally irrelevant, but for those really wanting red. I just painted my brembos for my X5M Indianapolis red. I wanted a reddish type tone and this metallic red is really beautiful. Not too in your face. Looks maroon at night and when the light hits it has great flake.
If I was in the market for a new M3/4 in red. I would definitely consider this color. |

Just find it odd that two different German car companies would have the same color on their palette:
Suzuka Grey!

Had a 6 Series with Individual Merino Amaro Brown with white piping and it was beautiful. I highly recommend that one.

For those not familiar this looks closer to Deep Sea Metallic than anything else IMO. I think DSM was one of the most underrated blues. Love TM though...

Audi also has an Estoril Blue (much darker than BMW's Estoril) and an Imola Yellow. Both companies name a lot of their colors after famous racetracks so it's no surprise that there is some overlap, I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting.

the configurator doesn't do justice for Amaro Brown because it's more saddle/orange
