Interesting how there are different codes for Laguna Seca Blue depending on the year and model of the vehicle.
Looks like they switched to a different paint codes in 2018. I wonder if the issues they were having with individual LSB paint orders sparked the changed.

"At 10:40 I find myself back in the lounge, watching all the happy people accept their new vehicles. At this point, I notice a US-spec M3 (judging by the reflectors in the bumper) and think "Wow, someone has an Atlantic blue M3 on the same day as my Atlantis Blue". Oh no no no no no..... it hits me. THAT IS MY CAR!See also here ("Forum Trashes BMW Owner Who Had M3 Delivered In Wrong Shade Of Blue").

![]() Actually, I'm confused because I thought it was "Atlantis Metallic" too, paint code 399. I see a lot of Atlantis Blue references in that Color Code list but maybe they are all wrong or it changed. Last edited by chris719; 04-07-2020 at 12:17 AM.. |
