More M2 in Long Beach Blue... Now its getting hot ...

AGAV13 · 10-04-2015, 07:13 PM

Why no interior shots?

PackPride85 · 10-04-2015, 07:18 PM

Looks like they left the driver's seat all he way folded forward and head rest fully up. Must be a tall driver.

I honestly like that render much better. Reasonable people can disagree on matters that are subjective in nature.

I'm really not liking the lower front spoiler.

W/// will like dem pics, amirite.

Damn right

What I also really like about these pics is that the body doesn't overwhelm the size of the wheels. It looks damn beefy in this one:

You could easy put on a set of 18s, and with a nice drop, it'll look quite nice still. Very hard to do that on the M3/4 as they make any wheel look smaller than they really are.

P.S. From that angle, the M2 needs a spoiler so bad haha

It's starting to grow on me...

Very nice!

The blue certainly looks better than in other photos. Still planning on mineral gray.

Don't want it any lower. It's a functional daily driver and I don't want to plan my route to avoid encounters with railroad tracks.

18" wheels would have been fine but these are OK.

Don't care about mirrors. I'm sure the final ones will be suitable to the task at hand.

Artemis · 10-04-2015, 08:11 PM

Thanks Bamowe for this post.

Of the four available colors for the M2, Mineral Grey is my personal preference. Made no secret of it that I don't dig the turquoise-ish Long Beach Blue color.

But in these pictures LBB in partial shadow looks good on the M2.

So never say never: maybe it dethrones my preference for MG once all the camo has come off ? Looking forward to it.

classyfast · 10-04-2015, 08:13 PM

doesn't really have that unexplainable presence of an M car, but still waiting to see the final work

LOL nice try.

You're not ripping off that camo! We use the same stuff at Ford. Its super sticky and when you try to peel it it comes off small piece by small piece...you will be there 3 days trying to rip that shit off not to mention the glue that it leaves behind is a damn mess! I wish though Id come help you if it was that easy so we can see this car already

If I had to guess Id say 275. And those tires were built in the 1st week of June, so a fairly fresh mule on our hands here.

MUFCbmwbear · 10-04-2015, 08:28 PM

Looks good. Still thinking Mineral Gray is best option but the jury is still out.
