That's a lot of money. But hey it's a tuners car you're supposed to spend a bunch on aftermarket parts

On the forthcoming M2 CS there is no Sunset Orange available either: Alpine White, Black Sapphire Metallic, Hockenheim Silver Metallic or Misano Blue Metallic (launch color).

Thanks! I will get one of the iK sprayers. I do have wheel woolies, but also need a pressure washer.

Off topic...which pressure washer did you go for?

I know these pics may not be the truest representation of Sunset Orange (I assume), but it definitely makes me happy I went for it. I have only seen an SO M2C under dealer parking lot lights at night time. But for whatever reason, even in the "dark," it changed my perception of the car after seeing it originally in HS under the sun.

I know many wanted more color choices for the M2 and M2C, but with the abundance of sun where I live, SO is going to be fun.

Sunset Orange differs in shades ranging from orange to ginger/rusty red-ish, depending on the lighting conditions. 'In your face' in full sun, subdued in overcast weather and in the dark. Not as full-on orange as Valencia Orange (1M), except in full sun.

My dad and I looked at all various levels but each tried a Stanley electric version with about 2100 PSI, which seems like it’s more than enough.

I never thought that I would consider SO but these pictures and some of the other recent ones posted have made me wonder...I’ve been set on HS for a while (if I go M2C or CS), but I am wavering a bit lately. I wish I could see SO and Misano in person but haven’t been lucky enough on that front yet.

Lol is that for real? $13k USD is absurd. I would pay max $8k and that's even a lot for a pair of fenders, trunk, and hood no matter CF

It gets worse. That's essentially employee pricing being extended to me. Retail is 18k

18K....wow

Obviously isn't an apples to apples comparison, but I hope these prices aren't indicative of the prime premium attributable to the CS MSRP.
