That is great news. When I see the blue, I want blue, when I see the gray I want gray, when I see the black I want black, when I see the white, I want the blue, gray or black.

I wanted Blue but I only found the MG with Carbon Fiber side mirrors. Stealthy and quite great looking. If where to do it again, probably blue because is the signature

If I were to do it again I would do MG. I have a LBB, maybe we should trade!

A lot of people are torn between the LBB and the MG. I have the MG and am happy with it but there are days I would love to have the pop of the LBB!

I go back and forth on the LBB. Sometimes I see it and I am like "what's up with this weird turquoise color? How did I think this was a good idea?" Then other times I am like "OMG this is the best looking car period, no one has a better looking car than this!"

I think with the gray I would always like it, but not love it.

Currently in an LSB F30, I have ordered an LBB M2.

What can I say? I like blue.

These colours definitely stand out and get noticed. Almost 4 years later and I still get positive comments on the LSB.

Decided to order LBB. I do love the MG as well but that would be the same color as my 7 Series and I think the blue gives it more pop. Looking forward to driving it!

There were 3 M2's (including mine) at a club trip I participated in this past weekend. All were LBB. I did talk to one of the other M2 owners and we both agreed we would probably have gone MG if LBB wasn't available.

Even if it is a more commonly ordered color, LBB is the color I liked most. The good news is that, before this weekend, I had not even seen another M2 on the road so I should not see this color so much I become sick of it.

I didn't want neither white or black so I had to decide between the Grey or Blue.

The deciding factor between the two colors is which one will be available first, in my case, the grey was so I pulled the trigger and glad it turned out this way as I'm so happy with how gorgeous and stealthy this color is.
