I like the dynamic range of TR where it can look either red or a reddish orange depending on lighting. Loved Valencia Orange on the 1M so I guess I'm biased.

I still love Valencia Orange. What a great paint! Sadly it did not end up being exclusive to the 1M as it ended up being offered on the E84 X1.

You are lucky in the US that you have never had the F20.

Both are very square and blocky. There is a lot of e36 M3 from the front and e30 M3 from the sides on this design. And Toronto and Henna (e30) aren't too far off. BMW should have just called the color "Henna II" and they would have gotten less grief.

I'm liking it more and more!

I think it will look good next to my '98 Technoviolet M3.

....just my personal opinion.

And there it is… I have been stating since October 15th, when I saw the G87 in person that the front end reminded me of an E36. Clearly this photo is a tip of the hat to that.

Another Henna photo. You did rarely see E30 M3s sell for this anymore, even with 150,000 miles on them.

Lovely pics. I had a chance to buy an e30 M3 for $17,500 just 4 years ago. Passed on it. Silly me.

It is funny how BMW keeps posting the same photos over and over again. I guess until the launch they are not going to have any new content for us.

You don't appreciate the new marketing that goes along with the pics?

I wish someone like iND would come out with a CF piece that would go cover that center area as well as into the grille recess giving it an F87 M2C look. That with the CF side inserts would improve the front drastically.
