Picked up my new Tanzanite Blue / SS ZCP F80 from the detailer

A418t81 · 02-06-2017, 12:03 PM

Had XPEL PPF installed on the front, and the whole car coated with G techniq. Love the TZB. Waited almost 5 months for it. Well worth it!

I have color matched reflectors and spacers waiting already. Still deciding on springs. Probably a lightweight front lip and some side blades as well as tint to round out the cosmetic mods.

Perfect collection

I'm so mad they made this color the $5k individual now..it was supposed to be my next color for second F80.

Didn't know this, I was planning to re-order a 2018 with this exact color combination. Unfortunate that it's $5K now. I Probably will go another direction.

SupremePower1 · 02-07-2017, 01:26 AM

Beautiful! I love dynamic colors like this. Makes me wish I had individually ordered mine.

BrooklynG87 · 02-07-2017, 10:52 AM

Such an incredible multi-dimensional color!!

instantexpert · 02-07-2017, 10:56 AM

That color is gorgeous.

I was going to order this color but they cut off individual before I was able to place my 2017 order.

Are you sure? BMW Luxemburg already has the LCI 2.0 version on their configurator and there's still Tanzanite Blue as an individual option.

And I'd be surprised if they choose Tanzanite Blue as the color for the M3 in the LCI promotion videos and pictures and then remove it from the standard individual color palette.

I'm pretty sure. I'm ordering from United States. BMWUSA.COM doesn't allow choosing Tanzanite anymore..

Looks so good detailed.

Xerxes480 · 02-08-2017, 04:10 PM

Love the color! I was also considering this for F80 #2. Not for $5k though...

That's a great goal. The 991 GT3 is the most amazing car I've ever owned and I have had a lot of modded cool cars over the years. The noises and sensations are just out of this world. I have GT3 buddies who came from Lambos and Ferraris and they just go on and on about the experience of driving the Porsche. It is also reasonably attainable, and maintenance costs are inexpensive compared to the company it keeps. You could also very easily daily drive one if it is just you, or your SO in the household.

I can't get over how much I love this thing. I'm number 2 for the 991.2 GT3 and it had better impress tremendously for me to give this one up.

Thanks for that insight. I will ascend into the P-Car club at some point, and I'll daily drive the shit out of that GT3 too. Lol!

A418t81 · 02-09-2017, 10:12 AM

Haha, awesome! I sometimes think about selling off the other cars that I have and just simplifying down to just the GT3. It is tempting, but like eating birthday cake every day, I am afraid I would become used to it and not appreciate it as much. Regardless, daily driving one is something that I day dream about quite often.
