What's your style?

This.
I'll add the question: Do you like compliments and attention towards your cars?

LBB is THE color for the M2 and looks amazing in all light. MG looks great as well but I would only choose it if I wanted as little attention as possible. LBB is a head turner all around. MG is not.

Goose the gas pedal and attention is obtained.....regardless of the color of the paint!

Thus far, my experience has been that MG does garner considerable attention, but it's limited to people who already know what the car is. I get a lot of "Hey, is that the new M2!?" and "Who, what do you think of it? Do you love it? Is it as good as the reviews say it is?" Lots of smites and thumbs up from people who look like they probably are into cars. I've even had someone in a 3 series pull a U-turn and break several other traffic laws just to get next to me at a light to talk to me about the car. For everyone else it just flies under the radar, which is exactly what I want.

Hmmm, owners with LBB say get LBB and owners with MG say get MG, didn't see that one coming

Both colors are awesome, actually car looks great in all 4 colors, can't go wrong with any choice.

[Destroya]

The decision between LBB and MG for me was a tough one. If I only had the car for a few months I would have gone LBB but I was afraid long term I would find that color too sickly sweet.

[Click821]

I questioned the LBB a first but once I saw it in person, my choice was made so simple...And i think it looks mean in the blue also.

All. Thanks for the overwhelming response. Still lost however. I flipped a coin and best two out of three came up with MG. Still don't know however.

Had a blue last summer. Waiting for a gray now. Liked the blue but I kind of grew tired of it anyway.

For me, the decision is simple. I would get LBB just because every other car I have owned has been some shade of black, gray, or white. Live a little, get some color .

Go with LBB for sure. The fact that you flipped a coin and 2 out of 3 said MG, but you are still questioning tells me you subconsciously want LBB. Sounds like you are ready to step out of the box. I feel like MG would be the "safe" choice for you and you will forever feel like you missed out. Like that girl you never got the courage to ask out or that time you had the chance to go skydiving and chickened out at the last minute.

Get that LBB, man!

When you flip the coin, whichever result you are secretly hoping for before it lands is usually your gut instinct. Trust it

I had the opportunity to choose between AW and MG. Having to actually pay money (deposit) to commit to AW was enough to tell me I really wanted MG.

If you're doubting your choice it probably means you want the other one.

Also, open the door to your garage. What color car do you expect to see?

You need a new coin - the one you're using is obviously defective.

Go LBB, and you'll never look back (except to see all the admiring thumbs-ups you're getting from everybody). -scr

Opting, instead, to go see a chick-flick with your... sister. -scr

I was in the same boat OP, was constantly changing color choices. I ended up going with LBB and picking it up this week. I have no regrets. No doubt that any color will be good on the car. I personally think black looks the best on the M2 and on mostly every car. You can't go wrong either way.

What you should ask yourself to make the final decision is simple. When your driving do you want it to stand out and be loud then go with LBB, if your more conservative and want a classy color that by the way comes on every BMW model then go with the other 3 choices. I saw all of them and they all look good in their own way

[CommitConfirm]

LBB: is the Hero colour. Too 'look at me' for my taste
BSM: is black and having had 2 black cars looks amazing clean and b'tch to maintain
AW: is Asia spec reserved for Rich Arabs & Chines Business men, often with red leather interiors. Or, ironically, poor people who choose it because it's often the free colour in the UK.
MG: is the only one left that I could live with while staying under the radar.

If you want everyone to look at you get LBB. If you're more incognito get MG

Last time I checked around 45-50% are LBB, 35% MG, 7% AW and 8% BSM, give or take a bit

[D CHOI]

Also keep in mind the pics don't do justice on how nice LBB looks in person. Also the grey seems a lil dull but I've seen some pics on here where it's coated and looks amazing under a bright light. Watching videos instead of pics will help you decide better on what you want. I'm personally getting the BSM and have yet to see one in person, but I'm confident it's gonna look pretty gangsta when I see it.

[GoSlow2GoFast]

I wanted red, not an option, so decided to go MG when I ordered. Saw a LBB M2 after that and changed my order to LBB. No regrets, it looks really good in person. It does not look teal, it's a good looking blue.

If you like the "black on black" looking cars then the MG is better choice. I don't like that, and like the chrome accents over black. I also didn't like the OEM wheels with the darker MG, they contrast better with the LBB IMHO.

But it's a personal choice, my advice is stop looking to others for guidance, rather look inside yourself and trust your gut. Either color will look great, they are just different, and need to match your taste.

You can't go wrong either way really. I was on the fence on colors for a while and decided to go LBB and don't regret that decision at all. LBB changes colors as the light changes, teal is rarely if ever a color I have seen on an LBB car, it seems that photos show the car as teal but in person it is clearly blue. I am sure you will be happy either way. LBB is pretty easy to care for, doesn't show dirt too badly so if thats a concern LBB is a bit easier to care for then MG, I speak from experience as I have owned cars in both colors.

Like I said your going to be happy regardless of the color choice so don't drive yourself crazy about it.

[Kid Eh]

I saw the LBB in person and found it too turquoise for my liking. It'd be nice for a week and then I'd regret it. My dilemma has been between MG & BSM. I'm opting for the black. But as most have said you can't go wrong with any of the colours.
