Best color combinations on an E46 M3?

Exploring the options of getting a new M3 through the BMW Select program right now, and am trying to settle on the color combo. The picker on BMW's site kind of distorts the actual colors a bit seeing as the Interlagos Blue they show is a lot darker than in the pics in the pinned thread. I was thinking something like Gray Silver Metallic with the Imola Red Interior. If I do get it, I will be getting the ZCP but still am not sure if I want the Interlagos, I'd have to see it in person.

Just please don't suggest that god awful "yellow" they use.

The IB is a beautiful color, but it's not for everyone. while it's not as flashy as the LSB, it's flashier than your average blue. If you want something more distinct, yet still "fun" then I'd have to recommend Silver Grey on Imola Red

jet black with cinamon is stunning in person, but i'd prob have to go with titanium silver with the red or black interior, black just shows scatches too easily and nothing looks worse then swirl marks on a car, ir ur trying to be alittle different i would recommend phoenix yellow, its relatively rare and honestly i person its a pretty cool color.

My M3 that will be getting here this month will be Carbon Black on Cinnamon. It just makes you shiver seeing it. Its fin awesome, especially with aluminum trim on the black and cinammon inserts. The select program = the individual program?
