Cool shots! Thanks for sharing!!!

Love the Hera Mica and the Tanzanite. Those are my favorite. I wanted to get the Tanzanite when I went to order the 340. But since production moved from Germany to South Africa for the 2018 models. Individual color palette was dropped so I went with Glacier Silver again. Still pissed about that. Would have sold a kidney to get the Tanzanite Blue. Great photos and thanks for sharing. Enjoy the Hera Mica Fighter jet.

I've never seen Avus on an F80. Looks great! Classic color.

My tanzanite looks black on the end next to Jarretts SMB car. Lol.
I swear its not black

cfm56d7b · 09-14-2018, 12:04 AM

Great comparison. San Marino continued to outshine all other colors.

Beautiful car. What wheels are those?

Crazy Penguin · 09-14-2018, 11:01 AM

Fall blue meet needs to commence

Rxpert · 09-14-2018, 12:17 PM

First off all awesome cars & colors!!!

But someone in the group didn't get the memo:

Change out those orange reflectors STAT!

Really? I think the opposite. YMB looks washed out to me next to a vibrant blue like Mexico.

very cool photo shoot!

now someone needs to organize shades of grey

A very close runner up, shots are excellent.

FBMWWINS · 09-15-2018, 03:08 AM

Great post and shooting.
Provided that they are great colors for me, I will keep my tanzanite blue followed by San Marino though I like the latter one as much.

sahajesh · 09-15-2018, 07:48 AM

Great photo shoot and SMB wins of course

I guess Estoril wasn't invited as it's far too common

Great shots!

Thanks for sharing.
