I came from Estoril blue too (335i). I actually haven't seen my particular car in person yet since I'm taking delivery next week but I have seen other LBB M2s in person before I purchased.

Interesting that you use the word "electric", as I would've used that to describe something like Yas Marina blue, Laguna Seca blue or Misano blue. Those colors do feel energizing but LBB emits a green/teal undertone that gives me more of a calming effect like a clear, blue ocean on a warm summer day.

Yeah, that's kinda what I'm afraid of lol. So many pics and videos show this is a great bright/but deep blue, and I have a feeling I'm going to be disappointed. These are the videos that sold me on the color:







I'm really hoping I like it...

All 3 of the M2C colors are dynamic. LBB can be blue to teal, SO can be red orange to bronze, HS can look white or matte grey.

Fwiw I think LBB is better than the Misano Blue in person. The Misano just looks...blue.
