Craig, I get compliments on the color too. The finish on yours looks great.

The main difference in the two vehicle are the wheels where yours look larger. Also with the "M" styling package the trip around my windows and grille are blacked out but the trim around the wheel openings and along the sides are body colored.

Did you see after we ordered our vehicles they added another slightly different blue option called Tanzanite Blue II. It is funny but on their site it looks closer to my color than the Phytonic Blue. Go figure.

I didn’t see the new color option. I thought it was only an ‘M’ car option. I have seen it on M3s.

My dealer says it is a another $1k above the extra we paid for the Phytonic Blue. He indicates that the website and brochures are not totally accurate as to how the color looks on the vehicle. Since it is a extra cost option I doubt they will stock any in the new color so it might be awhile before I see it.

I feel it is for a younger ‘Matchbox’ age then where I am. It’s a little too ‘electric’ for my tastes. On the other hand if I were to purchase a tricked out M2,3 or 4, it might be a perfect color.
