Wow, nice updates, the ride height in combination with the gold wheels absolutely hit the spot. Very special car with a very special story.

This needs to be on the front page.

P.S. Just got to see Verde Ermes in person for the first time a few weeks ago, it's incredible.

What an absolutely beautiful build! I love the gold CS wheels too, great color combo. Very much some "Aston Martin" vibes

Awesome colour combo mate. There was a supposedly one off Oxford Green one for sale last year with brown interior that I was so close to getting, kicking myself now that it got away the week before I could go see it! Enjoy the car!

I love the fact that they provided a picture of the car during the building process as a bandaid for getting late. That was a beautiful touch from BMW’s part!
I really like that!
This is one of the things that made me love the brand, including the Individual program which makes BMW stand out.

The car is beautiful. Enjoy it in good health!

Welcome to the green/gold club. Stunning stunning stunning car. After seeing a bunch of individual cars come out in green in the past few years I think it was a crime that the f8x wasn't available with a green paint option. And I think bmw picked up on this with the intro of IOMG for the G8x. Beautiful car, congrats!

Great color combo! You thinking of changing the caliper color at all?

Such a beauty. Can't believe the way BMW have wrecked the look of the latest M3/4. You were so wise to get a F82.

Nice build.

Any regrets or final thoughts on Verde Ermes after half a year of ownership? I'm seriously considering it on a M8 GC build. Some internet pics i've seen make it look outstanding and really pops. While some others make it look undertone/underwhelming. I've never seen the color in person myself. What are your final impressions in sunlight/overcast/nightlights? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Also what kind of reactions do you get from random people in the street?

I forgot to ask: why would you replace the LSD oil in a brand new car?

I saw that M4 for sale last year as well. A friend of mine owned an F80 M3 in the same colour combo, Oxford green with Cohiba brown leather.

The photo was taken by a contact who works there and is not normally something they do. I was very lucky.

I had never seen the colour in person when I ordered the car, only various pictures so it was a gamble.
It is a pearl colour and does vary in different lights which is part of the appeal. It can be quite dark like Oxford green, brighter like Oak green and vivid in direct sunlight with gold hints in it.

So many people comment on the cars colour, usually complete strangers in petrol stations, car parks etc.

Zero regrets!
