Still not the shade I was hoping for, but a great choice in a darker blue. Thanks for sharing it! |

All I have to say is... BMW really needs to fix their color shades on the site. Even the best calibrated monitor doesn't do justice to the colors besides black or white. I do like the color though

That looks absolutely stunning!!
I'm sold, Tanzanite would definitely be my next blue if Le Mans was too much for me by the time I switched cars. I had my eye on Deep Sea Metallic and while I think it would look similar to this in hue, this just looks far richer and deeper -- and somehow it manages to look every bit as amazing as it did under auto show lighting in New York. What a perfect blue!

Awesome!
I'm on the fence for an F30 in this color, but still waiting to see some samples and pictures. These shots sure help, it seems to have a lot more pop and flake than IB which is exactly what I'm looking for. This isn't, by any chance a dealer in the randstad area? Would love to see the color in person... In any case: thanks a lot for the shots, keep us posted, and congrats with this great looking car! |

Azurite looks amazing on the F10 M5... tanzanite appears to be similar to audi estoril blue crystal effect... so I was hoping for something like in between azurite and jerez
BMW are you listening... M3/M4 standard azurite/jerez mix |

Beautiful!! Love those flakes.
I'll probably always struggle between blue and black. Especially when the blues are nice like this. Struggled when choosing a color for my M (finally settled on Azurite), and probably always will. I love both!

Beautiful car, and I love that interior (much better without the plastic drapes ).

Thanks for sharing. The stitch work looks amazing. Champagne Merino looks gorgeous. Had a hard time deciding between Champagne and Platinum for my F13 order. I finally ended up with Platinum for the Citrin Black exterior. In your case, the Champagne interior complements the Tanzanite Blue perfectly. She's a beauty. Congrats!
