Anyone have any experience trying to get an Individual color like Porsche Chalk White? Found a video of a Panamera just to get something close to size..looks fairly sweet.
Adding Lime Rock Grey Metallic and Suzuka-Grey to my list.

Also I suspect you would lose contrast? Does anyone think frozen blue would look good? Might be a good contrast.... |

I thought frozen black would look great too, but after seeing pics of frozen black it’s just not a good fit on the F90. I personally never have liked frozen blue. Currently i’m leaning towards the Frozen Dark Silver it was launched with.

That's a great look. I almost thought about frozen red, however I would hate to "copy" the first edition models...

MBB. It’s looks very upscale when clean and doesn’t look too bad when dirty (compared to black or something darker). I had a silver M5 comp before and this MBB one gets way more thumbs up and people seem way more interested in telling me how awesome it looks. It’s a beautiful color; my favorite color of any car, I’ve ever had.

Thought I was going with Fashion Grey but was underwhelmed when I saw it in person. Ended up placing an order for a color Ferrari originally came out with - Grigio Medio or “medium gray” in Italian. Took a minute to figure out why my Bavarian saloon color was in Italian I requested the exterior be dressed with numerous carbon fiber trim (even though I feel a bit foolish when I look at the added price).

There are a number of colors that look really amazing. I think it comes down to your personality and the vibe you want to put out.
MBB looks great, but it is a very loud look at me color. DG looks great, and is a much more subtle under the radar look. Frozen silver looks amazing, and is a good choice if you want every person you pass to stare at your car. Singapore gray, Azurite black… Both great colors. Great choices for people who want that classic dark car look. The upkeep can be a little tough on dark cars though in my opinion. Even white looks great although the snoopy look can sometimes come across like you're trying too hard. The list goes on. I think it mostly comes down to personal taste in style, it's hard to go to wrong other than a few choices I won't mention so that no one gets offended, LOL.

It all comes down to personal preference and pics really don't do some of these cars justice. It is hard to visualize how striking and classy a color Nardo Grey is, especially how it accentuates the dark trim of the Comp version, until one sees it in person. I'm sure its the same for some other colors. |

Follow the lead from the manufacturer's advertising!!! They usually pick the best color that they offer in the car to advertise it... Mine is MBB and I really like it so far.

BSM has a certain appeal for those that don't love the black lower rear bumper... I still haven't seen a black comp in the flesh but I think that tempts me more than anything else
