LBB is $5200. I asked.

So the Other two options are these.

1. Atlantis Blue and Golden brown

2. Imola Red and Golden Brown.

I have already a Laguna Seca blue E46 m3 Vert with cinnamon interior.

Just stuck what to go for.

What is your opinions.
BMW Atlantis, Porsche Miami Blue, Porsche Mexico Blue, or Porsche Voodoo Blue are all interesting choices for blue.

Instead of Imola Red I would suggest Porsche Guards Red, somewhere between Imola and Ferrari Red.

Fire Orange for maximum impact

The Imola red is not as common, as people tend to go for the atlantis blue. That's why i am a bit unsure about Atlantis blue.

Funny bit is i wanted either of these colour for my e46 m3. Ended up getting LSB, lol.

Imola for sure. A true red looks great on the m3/4.

I have LSB and I couldn’t imagine another color on my car, buuuuuut, I saw a Porsche the other day driving in the opposite direction and it was a blue I never saw before on a car and I wanted it. I know it’s not Mexican Blue because I saw that on an M4 at Welt when I did my delivery, but it could be Miami blue. I’ve seen some pics of Miami blue, but nothing in person yet and the pics don’t seem as unique as what I saw, but close enough to think it could be it. I only have a handful of pics I’ve taken where it actually looks like LSB on my car, so I’m guessing the same may happen to Miami blue.
They have stopped production of LSB due to a certain reason. Clarification reason.

Was proper gutted when i was told. Only 3 LSB in total in Uk. Not one F80 m3 in LSB. Wanted to be the only one.

Seen a LSB coupe, looked not far off my LSB e46 m3 vert.

Same reason why i am unsure about Atlantis blue.

Not sure if there is a registry of all the colours made to this day. Reckon not as it too early for this.

Those look Good on A F80.

Yeah it is very popular, especially in US. Seen like two or three in Uk. Not seen a imola red one tho.

Funny bit is LBB is popular here and is also a individual cost, same as Atlantis blue.

Which sings to you more?
Truthfully wanted LSB. Was set on that colour, but got told i can't do it.

So the other two options were these ones i mentioned. Imola gives that classic look. While Atlantis blue gives that rich look.
