Cool Mexico Blue F32 440i MSport

Just thought I'd share this with you all. Individual Mexico Blue with Individual Opal White Merino Leather & Full M Performance Body kit inc. Style 624M 20" Wheels. It looks fantastic

Yes that would be cracking. People can then see how green LSB looks in some lights next to the MB. I think that would be the look for me if I was willing to spend that much on paint.

Is the M4 an order or stock?

The M4 is a customer order, we also have a Long Beach Blue M4 Vert coming, can't wait to see that one.

Perhaps my favourite colour.

I think it needs to be a performance car to carry it off successfully and it looks fantastic on that 440.

How much does it cost over the standard metallic?

I love Mexico blue but those wheels are awful and sat too far inside the arches and the rubber band tyres aren't to my liking, some better offset wheels with meatier side walls would look a lot better IMHO.

I always thought this too, but it is quite different. I'm going to try and get several blues together just to show the difference between them. It's not until you see them in the flesh that you really see it. My iPhone 4 also doesn't take the best pic

That would be great if you could. I just googled a YMB and it's paler and more washed out, MB seems a bit richer or more vivid perhaps.

So little difference is these 2 pics, but quite a bit in the flesh.

If you've got YMB don't park it next to Mexico blue, you'll cry, washes it out as you say.

YMB looks good (if you like light blue) on its own but other more vivid blues wash it out when next to it.

IIRC there was a post from the boys over the water with YMB, LSB & MB on a bridge. They all looked quite different.

There is a TTS in Mexico blue at work, I don't park next to it!

I would love my car in Mexico blue but its very cruel to YMB.
