335 M Sport bodywork question

I'm about to order a coupe with either the M Sport package, or with the Sport package and aerodynamic kit (decision based on consideration of Lemans Blue vs. Montego Blue).

Has anyone seen both in person, and is there a significant difference in the overall effect?

having seen both in person, i'd say

LeMans > Montego
Msport > Aero

LeMans Msport > pretty much any E9x sans M cars and of course TiAgs.

But seriously, Msport is special for starters, and LeMans is specific Msport colour that lacks of that purple hue you see in Montego. If extra money for the Msport is not an issue, go with LeMans, you gonna love it and get tons of compliments.

I am impartial to Montego vs. LeMans...both are great choices IMO.

M-Sport for sure over Aero.

The colors are so close, you have to park them side by side to even tell them apart. In any case, I would get the M-Sport kit first then choose the color 2nd.

+1 Colors are indeed too similar except that LeMans is more "exclusive" (if you can even call it that) since it can only be ordered with he M-Sport.

IMHO still think this is the best combo: Aero front, MTech sides and rear.
