At least you will have it for Hanukah or Christmas.

LeeInCT · 09-26-2017, 10:10 PM

week 45 here as well
basic build 6MT
wifey won't allow me to have the LBB, so I went with MG. Now she is trying to sway me into AW... still time to change so I am wondering whether I should.
Both color look good.
Doing the performance center delivery, most likely.
so the production finish time is around 11/10/17, I heard.

That's funny. My wife would only allow me to get the M2 if it was in LBB!

Bt12 · 09-27-2017, 05:07 AM

Week 43, wife also said no LBB. Only white, Lol. Wives

LeeInCT · 09-27-2017, 11:12 PM

I think it's because lbb is a on the flashy side a bit. Wives always want their men to lay low

I'm sorry, but your wife dictates what color car you have?

I mean, if the two of you share it, that's a little different, but if it's your car, why does she have any say in the color!?

Mine is LBB, it will be my 4th blue car in a row now... I considered AW but I have a coworker with an AW M435ix so I didn't want to look like a copy cat. Can't keep BSM looking nice for more than 30 seconds, and MG would be nice if I wanted to go subtle but I don't like boring monochrome, I want color on my car. So LBB was really the only option.

Because buying a car is expensive, and will require some austerity measures that affect the whole family, at least initially because of saving for the down payment.

I could overrule her, since I'm the sole bread winner, but I wanted LBB anyway, and if she thinks she influenced me, she's happy.

Most importantly... Happy wife, happy life!

Wharf Rat · 09-28-2017, 09:02 PM

My last several vehicles have been white. To be clear, I think the M2 looks great in AW - especially with black or CF bits. But, this time I wanted color. Was swayed by MG... for a while, but ultimately ordered LBB.

Same here, but my wife would never try to pick my car color for me, the same way I wouldn't try to pick hers for her... She would offer input / preference / suggestion, but that's where it would end. TBH, she would probably tell me to get LBB as well, since she feels the same way I do about boring monochrome cars.

Why the heck does it matter to your spouse what color car you drive, that's what I don't get.

LeeInCT · 09-29-2017, 07:26 PM

ZPrime if the wife doesn't like a color, that's a big things. in my situation she obviously won't spend hours googling and researching about specs and reviews. A car to her is all about appearance, and color is such a big part of it.

Besides, reading the comments of many posters, my summary of the consensus is, if one is concerned about getting above average attentions, then LBB is not an idea color.

Love LBB, concerned about the attentions that come with it. I can live with MG ;-)

Wharf Rat · 09-29-2017, 09:27 PM

Wow, guess I'm lucky. While my significant other shares in my joy of cars & motorcycles, she wouldn't be bothered by my choices, whether it be make, model, color, whatever.

I've read that some folks are concerned that a color like LBB its too flashy & might elicit unwanted attention. Really? While I really dig the aesthetics of the M2, I can't imagine it would get noticed by many common folks. Just not exotic enough in design or color to generate that response, IMO. Now an Aventador in Arancio Atlas... OK. ;-)

Pretty much just decided to check all the boxes.

I think it will be fun to take part in the event in Thermal. Yeah, probably over-priced for what it is, but that's my logic.

My Wife is good with what ever I choose.

Just blend in more without a bright colour that's all.
