OP... Love the color and love to see other Individual Color M3's out there.

Only 5 weeks to wait for mine. Keep us posted on how you like the exhaust and of course looking forward to additional photos.

Stunning colour, great choice, and very much worth it at $7.5k IMHO. Well done!

Can't wait! Very positive reviews indeed. Considering this might be the last NA 911 ever (barring GT cars). Kept it simple: RWD+7MT

You have to park these cars next to each other and use the same camera to get an appreciation for the difference. Using photos from a different camera in dark lighting aren't going to give a good comparison. To me this is darker than mineral gray but not quite as dark as the M5/6 Singapore gray.

But as others have said, the OP got the car of his dreams and is one of a kind. The 5k paint is just an extra 50-100 bucks a month on the payments I see no issue with the decision.
The pics I chose of my car as a comparison to MG were purposefully chosen because the car is outside in bright direct sunlight and shade combined!! - the other post of the Lambo outdoors clearly shows it to be more of a gun metal grey and lighter color than MG to my eye (although certainly not the exact paint as on the OP's Beemer) - so not sure what you are talking about there other than misreading my post. As I said repeatedly they are clearly different and never once suggested the OP should not have done what he did - more power to him and I am happy he is happy. All I did was post a comparison as no one else was doing so and express my opinion as to what I like.

It actually looks better on the M3 than on the Murci.

Grigio Telesto is a Lambo color. I was told there was an F10 M5 done in this color but no other m3's.

I will post better pics after my detailed goes through the car.

Additionally, I have the titanium exhaust from BMW that still needs to be installed. Only other modifications will be clear bra, tint, springs, and spacers.

That latter part of my post wasn't directed at you, just those who stated the OP was crazy.

And you're right, now with that photo of the lamborghini out in the sun it shows how significantly lighter it looks in direct light.

From the initial photos it looks much darker which is why I thought it was darker than MG. All the more reason I really think MG and this color need to be compared on the same camera in the same lighting conditions.

She's gorgeous, but 100k for an M3, I just can't see the justification in that. But who cares about our opinion, if it makes you happy, than right on!! Very nice car man!
