For a while BMW was offering any individual color at no charge on the Gran Coupe, not sure if that applied to all M8's or not.

Why wouldn't they order this car with this color in a competition model? Also don't think this color suites the car at all. That's a whole lotta blue!

1. They should've ordered the Competition model

2. The grille surround should be shadowline to make the look cleaner.

3. That's a lot of bright blue!

Swap grille, problem solved.

Maybe they wanted less harsh M ride with the noncomp?

That might explain why this dealer went wild with Individual colors. All "included" on the paint price line.

They can barely give these cars away, so free paint!

Love it!

Comp not necessarily worth it if you're going to mod. The shadowline parts are an easy score from IND.

Agreed, the only reason I was looking for a comp initially was to get the black/midrand beige/alcantara seats, I couldn't find one I was happy with and the base worked just fine. Shadowline grille and other parts were delivered by iND the day after I took delivery of the car from the dealer. I waited one whole day more before I put them on.

My favorite blue personally is Enzian blue, but Voodoo blue is right up there. It's off of the GT3RS model. Looks amazing as well on the 911.

Well done BMW!

The Voodoo Blue has a remarkable liquid-like texture. Very sharp color! Thanks for sharing.

Can't believe how poorly these cars did that they are offering individual colors as a no cost options.

Forgot the lost revenue from giving away a $5k option, the production inefficiency and dislocation this causes to your output is tremendous.
