The guys at Vossen did an excellent job engineering a 20" wheel with custom offsets for an exact fitment on the M2C platform. Even on the lowered KW suspension there are zero rubbing issues. I am extremely pleased.

Loving this thread and so I thought I would add my 2 week old, new to me, M2.

This car has been so much fun to drive. Love the way it handles, accelerates, and the sounds. Not to mention all the comments from random people that just love the car and color.

The change in hue is so significant. Pics taken about 20 minutes apart and slightly different angle. Maybe just the phone camera.

Shades of fall...

1,600 mile road trip... San Diego, CA > Las Vegas, NV > Flagstaff, AZ > Tucson, AZ > Bisbee, AZ > Lowell, AZ > San Diego, CA

The car was flawless and triple digits on some stretches when no one was around. The V1 detector did a good job of saving me a couple of times...

I hit 79K on the odometer on this journey.

Autumn is always my favorite time of year to shoot, but Summer, with the right light, comes close.

It's the camera. Look at the background. All phone cameras suck at rendering reality, the shots are over-processed and made to look like candy on a tiny screen. But it's true, even with a top level camera, that the angle of the sun is extremely important to the render, so changing it just a tiny bit can change everything.

Went for a nice drive with a buddy today, weather finally cooperated. A few more weeks before I put the winter tires on
