Photoshop rendering of an F82 in Mineral Grey

W12x · 02-12-2014, 11:31 PM

MG+SO looks great, but personally I'd prefer Gold calipers over Red for this particular color combo.

Wow that is dark this is the first pic I've really realized how dark it is!

Correct me if I'm wrong but when I went to look at MG the other day, I believe that the car does NOT seem this dark outside especially, with the sun shining.

I don't want another black car if possible, and mineral grey was the only other alternative on the configurator that I liked. It's a bit darker than I realized. I wish the blue was darker like Monte Carlo blue, or there were just more choices.

Also why are there red calipers on this car?

I'm a big MG fan, did you see the shots of the M3 mule in MG with black wheels? Looks great

GOLFFRR · 02-13-2014, 06:20 AM

Mineral gray isn't all that dark. It's not all that lustrous either. I liked the Sophisto Gray on my F10 much better, and would have been happy with that on this car. Would have loved Singapore gray too. To me, Singapore is the perfect Gray. No, gray isn't the sexiest color, but it looks pretty damn good in the right shade, and also brings out the curves on the car. Why do you think BMW prefers Space Gray for photoshoots? To me, though, Space Gray is a little lighter than I prefer.

Singapore would have been perfect.

JTO24 · 02-13-2014, 09:29 AM

I like mineral gray.. and now the M4 body is growing on me wtf! I was all set on going m3 but the 4 is looking better as time goes on for me. I'm still not sure of anything now except for CF roof, 6 spd manual and CF interior trim lol

Powaup · 02-13-2014, 09:50 AM

Not bad. I think the car would look better on Silver wheels. Black on Grey is just bland land.

This looks darker than the Mineral F30 I saw the other day.

Also, I thought Singapore was the darkest? Either way, odd to get rid of Space.

angelc5 · 02-13-2014, 10:37 AM

I was going with that color at first but after seen the MG outside in the sun I change my mind, it looks brown instead of grey, would love a Dolphin Grey

Grey changes to brown? That would be .. different. Now you're scaring me!
