M2 COMP in DONINGTON GREY Photoshop

Love this color and think the M2 would look awesome in it.
Thoughts?
Worth 5k to paint?

Looks like dirty HS to me. Looks better on the M5.

I think it's a much better color than HS, but, I would never repaint a car. I also wouldn't pay 5k for a nice but relatively standard gray.

$5k paint job for a different gray than HS? Don't do it man. Get yourself a cool BMW blue, red, or even dark purple.

Finally saw a M2C in HS. Looked very gray to me, especially in the shade.

Unless you have tons of money, I don't think it's worth it.
