Is it hard to maintain such a bright colored car? In terms of ability to hide dirt, and paint fade issues? And any regrets on getting the SO months down the line?
Thanks .

Regarding fading it is not a problem. Not for the SO nor the MB since they are metallic colors and they have a clear coat on top. We got my wife’s M240i SO 10 months ago and we have not had any regrets at all so I don't think there will be any for mine neither.

I do the car washes in the household and the SO compared to my old dark blue (imperial blue) F30 doesn't need as much attention in regards of dirt. We also had an E82 in Montego Blue which is similar to the MB. That also required less attention compared to the dark blue.

I think bright colored cars like SO, MB, EB or so just look a bit faded when they are dirty and not dirty as such.
