Agreed.

Looks the best (subjectivity) but is the hardest to keep clean and looking the best (objectively).

I wish BMW offered a few more color options for M2. A normal blue hue like San Marino or Marina Bay Blue would be great. I am not a great fan of LBB.

You are so right! I attached the wrong image. I fixed the post.

Thx!

I think the orange shows off the cars lines best and gives it the most aggressive look and I prefer the 5 split fork rims on this car. Looks dope!

Superb photoshop work.

Shame the new M2C still doesn't have carbon roof, HUD and adaptive suspension... I'd probably buy the new one if it did, sigh.

btw this is the version I'd go for:

It would be too expensive... HUD never happens. Adaptive suspension, carbon roof and ceramics I discussed with the CEO at BMW M.

Where are you getting these colors from? The reason I ask is the SO looks good and not Bronze to me at all. Very much like VO on 1M.

These are photoshops. The video above is not, but SO changes so much from one lighting situation to another. It's a hard color to capture. Check out the SO threads.

You know that true M colors are named after race tracks around the world right? Sunset Orange I understand isnt a "Real M Color" but Long Beach Blue is from the Grand Prix of Long Beach in California, US. It refers to the Pacific Ocean color we have here in Long Beach. Just saying for those that don't know.

You, sir, are correct! That said I find the Long Beach Blue has a little too much (for my taste) green/aqua hue to it in some lighting conditions. Interlagos, on the other hand would be absolutely stunning on an M2C!
