That's pretty much where I'm at, it seems like dealerships are willing to be somewhat flexible on price right now but no one is in much of a hurry, including me, since the 2023's are just a waitlist right now. I'm waiting on someone to offer me a deal worth pulling the trigger on or just going with the cheapest option when I can actually get an order in.

Have you decided on a color combination yet?

Still debating between Portimao Blue and Skyscraper Grey and probably won't make a final call until we see samples at least at a dealership. Were were going with the Frozen Gray but for an extra $3000 and it being harder to maintain, especially since the Z4 is going to be my daily driver, we thought it would be best to go with a "normal" color. That and my partner hates the "red" seats which I personally think make a fantastic contrast with the frozen gray. I'd bet we're going to end up with Portimao Blue/Cognac seats in the end.

My friend has an M240i in Portimao Blue with the red seats and I don't like the interior color.

In a convertible like the Z4, Portimao Blue with either ivory or a cognac interior will look awesome, most especially when the top is down.

I love the magma (red) seats in my Zed, provides a much needed contrast against all of the black. I suspect it's not such a good choice with some other colors but of course it's subjective. Whatever color, I believe it works best with the full Shadowline package.

For what it’s worth, the red seats in the Z4 are a much different shade than those in the M240.

Yes it is a different shade of red but I don't like it with the blue. It does look great with the frozen grey color

Exactly. The red and black or red and gray combo looks great. Red and blue a lot less so.

Red and white isn't bad and I can understand why people do like it.

Hmm, unless people are lying to me . Everyone that has seen my misano/magma combo has said it looks great lol . I will say , pictures seem to make the color look a lot more red than it is in person. It is closer to orange than red and contrasts beautifully with the blue . Of course , this is just my Opinion . lol

This is my favorite color combo, and was what I was considering ordering. I’m guessing they’re replacing Misano with Portimao, so I guess we’ll see.

I like that combo, especially with the black wheels and Shadowline package.

No matter what interior color you select the Shadowline and the black wheels are a must on Misano Blue.

I dunno.... Misano blue with Cerium grey wheels & trim, Ivory interior, and the moonlight top is one of the best configs for the Z4 ever, IMO.

It's pretty impressive in person.

Personally, I prefer the Cerium grey with most exterior colors. JMO

I agree but I know many others disagree. Thankfully, we've been given options.
