New ///M3 Colors-Quick Phone-cam shots - BMW Forum

So I went to the dealer 2 days ago, and finally eyeballed the new ///M3 Sedan and Coupe, along with seeing their COLORS for real. They aren;t much, but these phone-cam shots show the Interlagos Blue metallic and Jerez Black metallic paints much better than a brochure or theother pics I've seen. Also, the Fox Red Novillo is NOT a deep bright red like we've seen before. It is a red-clay or dull brick color, offering far less contrast with a black car than you'd think. Just FYI. Thoughts?

I actually very like the burnt shade of the fox red leather much better than the bright reds.

the dull red looks better... bright red is nice BUT the dull red would be better for a daily driver easyer to keep keep it looking clean....

The dull clay red came out better in these pcis than in life It was not as nice in person. And the carbon fiber trim was shockingly similar to cheapo plastic!

The brushed aluminum did not impress me either. Seems a limited choice there.

Car itself was magnificent! Wheel was fat and awesome to hold, sport seats were perfection, leather soft and fabulous - all as it should be! Can't wait to DRIVE one someday...

Definitely say not to the carbon fiber look leather trim -- saw it and felt it in a Z4 M coupe. The titanium shadow trim is ftw -- that is what Spence's dad's M5 has.
