I agree, it might be my next car when I need the 4th door (I plan to hold onto my BRZ though). The M4 (pictured) was the blue and the M3 was silverstone. The silver seemed to have a little touch of blue in it, reminded me of a more silver color of the last Prelude that had that touch of blue/silver. Perhaps it was just being in a convention area. The blue was bold. I had a LSB e46 M3 and I liked the LSB better. It wasn't bad, just seemed a little too soft/milky to me. A little too close to a rapper painting his lambo in baby blue for me but I'd still drive it! I think they hit the mark on the car, especially with getting the weight down. That's the thing I hated most about the direction BMW went on the M3.

Here are some real pics:
