Looks like they cranked the contrast up to try to make the blue actually show.

Yup, just CGI and lighting effects. I can guarantee it wont look that flashy/poppy.

Pretty sure he’s talking IRL cause that blue render car will likely not be even close to the blue we get
These days most vendors only photograph the car in 1-3 colors and use image editing software to produce the other colors. This works OK for every color except blue. Blue has a significantly different index of refraction and light emissions rate than other colors in the visible spectrum. What this means is that you can color shift a red to a yellow or a green, and your brain won't see anything wrong. However when you shift any of those colors to a blue... something in your brain always goes "uh... that doesn't look right at all"

Yeah this blue just does not look right and not that good looking. I hope we get something similar to the blue on the LC500.

There's no sense in speculating, the color we are getting is the same as BMW's Mediterranean Blue.

I wonder if there is any further word on custom colours that can be ordered.

Here is what the blue looks like irl, posted on our Charlotte Motorist club page.
Ken Gushi is also in Charlotte, may be for this car. Who knows, find out on the next episode.
