Really want to like this colour, every set of new pics that come out I look at hoping to like them but no matter how much I try and convince myself, the fact is it's baby blue.
Wish it was a few shades darker. Changed my order from YMB a few weeks ago. The choice of colours at launch is not great and I'm settling with AW rather than loving any of the colour options which is a shame. Thanks for the pics.

Nice! Were these taken in South Carolina in the hotel parking lot used for all of the ///M Driving School attendees? It looks familiar.

I've seen YMB in person and I definitely think the sun in these pictures make it seem lighter than what it really is. These pics look like Carolina Tarheel Blue which as a MD fan is

Still not loving it, not even liking it. I REALLY would like something like Le Mans Blue, Interlagos Blue, San Marino Blue, but not this powder blue, baby blue, ugly blue.
At this point I'm going with Sakhir Orange, or maybe just Alpine White and throw some ///M graphics on it. Since this isn't happening until May 2015, maybe BMW will offer some better blue before then.

Why did BMW reintroduce Estoril for the 1 and 3 series - would have taken this colour in a heartbeat as an M exclusive colour on this car.

That was my point! Really wished they'd saved Estoril for the M3/4 instead of reintroducing it on the series cars.

I'd like to apologize in advance to all of those who choose this color, as I will laugh out loud every time I see one of you pass by. just a horrible color, and if less people buy it, we'd sooner get a viable blue option (San Marino would be awesome, but I'd also be thrilled with Interlagos).

It just doesn't look good with black wheels IMHO, not even close to the look with silver wheels. The color is somehow sexy, it's one of the colors I actually like to see, but probably wouldn't buy it.
