Beautiful. So far my favorite color. I think the blue blend/hides the large diffuser in the rear very well.

Any reason its darker in person yet in the configurator it still shows up as the lighter EB, would hate to order in this color thinking I'm getting it darker and get a lighter one.

It depends on the lighting. When the sun hits it, it shows a lighter hue of blue and when it's darker, the blue shows through more.

One of the best BMW color choices IMO

Keep your eyes open when you're driving and I'm sure you'll see plenty EBII F30s. It's really a nice colour, especially when struck by the sun..

+1 I don't think these wheels work well at all because of the gun metal.

Needs a nice bright silver for EB in my opinion....

Too bad the convertible will be a soft top instead of hard.. Would've had me sold.

Color is nice on the car but I don't think it's the best. Mirror caps need to either be black, CF, or body color. I'm loving the front, especially with projector headlights. The LED's look stupid to me. Black out the grill and the front is basically perfect.

Dat ass...is ugly! Man! BMW doesn't get it right for me. They fudged up the F30/32 front and did an amazing job with the F22's face. However, they did poorly with the F22's rear while doing well with the 3/4's butt.

It's the same 17" wheels as on the mineral grey M235i that you posted before. Probably winter wheels.

Well some people with M135i's have 17" winter wheels over their M brakes and they seem to fit. Head over to the F20 1 series forum to check out pictures of this.
