Surprisingly, I've only had one single M2 sighting in Southern California (aside from my own car, of course), and that was back in 2016, just north of San Diego where I-805 merges into I-5.

And, to be honest, I can't swear that I actually saw an M2. I never got a good look at the vehicle which was in the next lane over about 200 feet ahead of me. The traffic was very heavy, so I couldn't catch up. It appeared to be LBB and was definitely NOT an SUV, so I surmised it was an M2.

Guess I would expect to run into more M2s in these parts. -scr

I've only seen one LBB in Orange County. I'm shocked I don't see more with as many Porsches, Lambo, and Bentleys running around this area.

I see an white one with all the motorsports stripes and such on it once in a while going the other way on the highway. I am not sure if it is an M2 or some other colorized 2 series.

There is a local guy who bought a black one a few months before I got mine but I have never seen it on the road.

We have a hand full of M3s and an M4 among my fellow docs'. One guy has a Dinan enhanced M4....very nice.....don't dare ask for a race....LOL....intake, exhaust and tune. Did not go for the bigger turbos...but his car is very nice.

Agree with you mike, they are like unicorns.
