Mine in the 2020 M850i coupe is blue as guess as close they can get it to Tanzanite. For your frozen Marina Bay would assume it would at least be blue as well.

I’d guess all standard colonies will be correct but individual may not be - too much effort to provide every colour option.

If it looks like an M8 at least you’re doing better than me, I have a light silver 640i on my idrive when I have a Singapore Grey M6. At least it is a coupe!

Could you post photos? I am placing my order soon, coming from a San Marino Blue M6, a color that I absolutely love. I am however torn between MBB and Donington Grey, bcs I wanted to go with a Sakhir interior, but don't like it with blue. Thanks.

Donington gray is amazing; I had it on my X6M and I loved it

+1 on Donington Grey. Definitely hides dirt well and when clean really shines. It's a little bit of a sleeper color on a coupe or convertible - my X5M was Donington.

Saw some pics on autotrader of a new doninginton Gray m8c and it looks amazing on the coupe. I believe it’s the first coupe to have the color.
