Ten M2 renders (featuring 359M Y-spoke Competition wheels and some CF goodies) made by forum fellow Paul-Bracq-BMW (source: here, here and here):

They look too *chrome-ish*

LBB would be the color to get, looks excellent. Do not want a boring gray car.

Regarding those new renders, honestly LBB looks the best perhaps because it doesn't look so heavily edited. Dark green would be a cool color though.

HAL 9000 might respond: "Look fuddman, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over."

C'mon, it's just a tongue-in-cheek reference to the LBB discussion: for some LBB is blue, for some it's green, for some it's turquoise, for some it's teal, for some it's a mix of all that, depending on the time of day and weather conditions.

As you know, one of the OEM colors of the E30 M3 was the epic Henna Red (Hennarot - BMW paint code 052): vintage in yer face ///M - no fuss about it.

I am not stressed out, Hal!

Should BMW launch the F87 M2 base version in a (more) vivid color ?

• 152/175 (86.86%) = YES
• 023/175 (13.14%) = NO

I have not read this whole thread so perhaps several others have already corrected you, but the only monochromatic color offered on the M2 is white. The other three colors or metallic, so, by definition, they are polychromatic.

@Artemis;


I have now found the ultimate compromise for your LBB color acceptance;


We can name it Kingfisher blue, or orange if you like...





Well anyway, the M2 will be sharp and agile as a Kingfisher, what ever color you`ll take

As I proposed before: let's call it a day and settle for "Long Teal Blue" or "Wrong Beach Blue".

Needless to say that my daughter is a fan LBB (P.S. not my girl below).

It's Chameleon Blue.

Compare also with the turquoise BMW color "Turkis Metallic"/"Tuerkis Metallic" (BMW paint code 419). Reminds to petrol blue.

LBB has definitely more blue grunt than that color.
