Dude, the way the light loves this car on any day, cloudy, bright sun, foggy, winter, whatever. Just fantastic IMO. Even just standard shots like the one below are epic because of the color.

If you're still deciding between LBB and SO make sure you see both in person. I was set to order an SO car and then saw SO on an X1. I was really on the fence after I saw SO in person. In certain conditions it's bright and vibrant and sometimes it looks really dark and brown.
I guess the same can be said for LBB. In certain lighting conditions, the color has a green or turquoise hue that some people don't like. Personally, I like the way LBB looks better. Just be sure to check both out. |

The other day I was pulling out of the car park at the shopping centre at a less populated time when suddenly an LBB M2C appeared behind me making a huge amount of noise with this small feral looking guy behind the wheel he was clutching like an amusement park ride with an expression of a chihuahua in search of an attractive leg to hump. My overall observation was that the colour looked stunning despite the humping threat.

You'll love it. Looks good and the black grill, wheels and accents really go well with the color. That and the orange stitching tie it all together. The lines on the car were made for the tone shifting paint.

In the same boat here at the minute - tending towards SO as it’s unique to the competition, dealer has LBB in stock, but a SO on the way from the factory - ETA wk 43. I haven’t seen SO in the flesh yet

Neither
I'm normally a blue car person, but I feel LBB is getting a bit stale. I'd rather BMW chose a different blue for the competition and I'd have been all over that. The SO in the showroom did make me ponder, but then decided to stick with my first choice. |

I really like LBB and was gonna wait on a dealer shipment, but something happened when I was looking at the SO they had on the floor, undriven by the masses. IDK what it was, but I was looking at the car and something clicked and I wanted THAT car. I reached in my pocket and handed the keys of my 2014 M235i to the sales guy and asked him to have my trade valued. They came back with a killer offer for the M235i, more than what I was expecting by a long shot. I drove home in the SO 2021 M2C.

SO all the way!
Too many shades of under different light. Plus who can't use an extra boost of vitamin C everyday

I love blue, especially cobalt blue (LBB). When I ordered mine there was no choice. That said I do love the orange color that's offered and I think it adds uniqueness to the car that even LBB doesn't. When I picked my car up the dealer had a black one and it was super sexy as well.

The thing is though, and I'm being honest, I think I'd get tired of SO much quicker than I will LBB, it's just so different, and not as palatable in as many different lights. LBB looks great in literally any light. |

I think they're both great, unique colors. Can't go wrong with either.

My 2 cents : Get what calls to you and forget what others think.
