search for the owner threads... there is a thread (one for each color) loaded with pics by the respective owners.

if you don't like the VO isn't the BSM your only choice?

I'd say go with the VO.
In my opinion, BSM hide's a lot of bulges and curves 1m has to offer.
Plus, if you decide to get aftermarket CF parts (grills, spoiler, etc) it'll be a nicer contrast with the VO color, while they'll blend in with the BSM.
But in the end, it's all personal choice.. and this is just my opinion.

So you want pics but not too many...
You may want to buy a car with an automatic transmission. The 1M has 6 gears. It's exhausting.

Those threads are picture threads, its nothing but pictures.

Plus there is another thread (not color specific) where people posted their favorite 2-3 pictures of their car

If you don't mind the heat and keeping it clean, BSM is the best looking in my opinion and also the most rare. Orange is nice too but I have seen all three side by side and BSM looks amazing with the bulges and the slits and scoops blend in nicely. For the sake of disclosure I have a white one because I live in warm climate, carry my kids and my car is a daily driver. The BSM gets warm inside. I gave up a little on the color for comfort and maintenance. From your post on interior it seems you care about styling and looks and in this case BSM is rare and awesome looking. Good luck.

Dackelone · 08-01-2012, 10:28 AM

+1 to everything nachob said above. Plus the BSM color makes the 1M look smaller than it is. Evolution80 (Andreas - he owns a BSM) and I noticed that on the Stelvio trip. VO seems to be the most popular color though, followed by AW and then BSM. Personally I don't care for black cars... but I really like the 1M in BSM!!

Probably a practical leading question: how often do you intend to wash your car ?

if the answer is "very regularly, because I can't stand visible dirt and raindrops": get BSM;
if the answer is "not very regularly - I prefer a color that hides dirt and raindrops decently": get VO
