Quite a few M3/4 specified with this colour.

Don't like it personally.

£2500 for a non mettalic grey!

I'd much rather have space grey.

Preferable to champagne Quartz I'd say.

But that's a lot of money....is it £2500 nicer than mineral grey? Not for me.

If you're going to spend that much on a colour it needs to be really special, and I don't think that is.

Wow, it's a bargain! It even comes with stilts!

That colour seems to make the xDrive arch gap look particularly huge!

I would say that too,it was ordered as a show piece for the showroom and it certainly works but mainly as it's different rather than the norm.

It's also probably the kind of colour that looks good under showroom lights and then just a big dull and boring when a little dirty and outside.

I think the colour is amazing. But not £2.5k amazing.

Well, I like it.

Seen a few Audi's in a similar colour, and always think they look good.

Definitely wouldn't part with £2.5k for them though, but as a no cost option I'd be tempted.
