Yas blue paint

Hello everyone, I've been driving toa few dealers trying to find an M3 in the yas marina blue colorbut am having no luck. Anyone in the central Jersey area that has one I can check outor do u guys know of any dealers that have one forme to see?

I walked into one dealer who showed me a blue on a 3 series which he said was the same but the web site has them listed as two different names. Some of these salespeople know so little about these cars it's pathetic.

Any help would be appreciated.thanks

I'd love to order the car now. I want to take advantage of some the end of the year promotions, but don't want to make a bad decision.

Apexit. i'm going to look into that now and see if they still have it thanks.

btw, the new rule is that by 2016 all cars must have a rear view camera. I wanted a rear view camera, but don't want the executive package.....think it's worth waiting for a 2016?

Open Road BMW has an M4. It's the closest one to me, so I think I'm going to head out there tomorrow.

open road bmw in roxbury? i'm from roxbury actually, the m4 there has a sunroof no carbon fiber roof, in my opinion Yas looks slightly worse without a carbon roof. but lucky for you if you're coming all the way up here i could just show you my yas m3 with carbon roof

i come to central jersey every once in a while. and yes i love the color. I was in the same boat you are, I never got to see the color in person before i placed my order and i was more than happy than i took the "risk" and ordered it. It really looks better in person than it pictures in my opinion

liavbar I also have YMB M3 w/carbon fiber roof (black interior) & MPE. I am in Wayne NJ. I don't travel to central NJ often but I could meet you somewhere on the weekend.

I've had the car since early August and am very happy with the color. I liked it from the beginning, but I got nervous after my wife hated it when I showed her. I ended up getting it anyway and she doesn't say anything anymore since it gets so many compliments from strangers.

SuspectisHatless, that's kinda like what happened to me last night. I went to the dealer in south hackensack with the wife and she didn't like the color. I did. I have to say that the mineral grey is a close second though.

Aziego, I passed by Bloomfield bmw last night. congrats!

BMW of Mt. Laurel just posted pics on their facebook page of a YMB M4 w/ black wheels and CF roof. Don't know how far that is from you if it's closer than Open Road.

My wife had the opposite reaction. She was not too hot on the color until she saw it in person. Good luck on your purchase.

what do you guys think about the silverstone? I saw it on an m4 and kinda liked it. It's unique, yet not wild like the Yas. The yas is my favorite color by far, but I meet with clients regularly...I'm afraid it's not a "professional" color.

I haven't seen silverstone in person and like many of the BMW colors, it seems to look very different picture to picture. Some I love, others not so much.

After owning the car for four months+ I am sure I would be happy with almost any of the colors, except for one.

However, I do enjoy being able to walk up to a parking lot and being able to instantly see where my car is parked.

I really like it. I feel it shows the lines of the car nicely, especially on the sedan
