That's a really cool promo. If I was in the market, I'd go frozen black or frozen dark grey.

I think it's because they are taking paint from other manufacturers for some. Like Rosso Corsa which is a Ferrari paint.

Didn't somebody have a BMW in nardo grey, an Audi paint?

As an M2C owner with no option to get any individual paint, paid or otherwise, I would also like to fart in the general direction of anyone who gets this freebie.

With the pricing on the M8 - just about every other option (paint choice, interior set up + trim, wheels, Bower and Wilkins, Driver Assist) should be "no cost"

Interesting.

I think this is an awesome no charge option on the GC. Would be even more excited if this becomes a trend on new models.
Is it possible they were being sarcastic?

Sepang Bronze was absolutely gorgeous on the E60 M5, I would love to see it on the M8 GC.

It only applies to GC which have only started to arrive. I suppose if you configured an early build you would be unhappy.
