Very nice! However there are some issues with it, the camo is playing trickery on your eyes and creating a false illusion regarding the front bumper. Check out this analysis I conducted earlier.

It looks really good! I think you can make it more accurate if you read through this thread.

cheers

Anyone else not liking how the new m2 is looking? I find from all the renders and spyshots, that it doesnt look as good as the m3/m4

Don't judge it based on pre existing renders, the bumper is not correct in them.

Read through the thread and Scott confirms my initial analysis

Thanks Harold.

I for one hope there is more to come, bonnet bulge, CF roof, more aggression somewhere. Aside form the width that is appreciated, I'm not feeling there is a great change from a nicely spec'd M235i with M Performance Kit.

Lovely sketch though and I'm happy to speculate I really want this to look awesome and then I'm in!

Really nice!

Adems suggestion is right. The front bumper needs some attention.

Nice take on it, Harold.

As others said, check the info about the front bumper. It won't get M6 styled wheels either.

Regarding color, you might be spot on. If info provided last Summer by SCOTT26 is still accurate as we speak, the launch color for the M2 (or M2 concept) will be a new ///M color: either some sort of new orange, a new red or a new blue.

Despite being the launch colour for the 135i Coupe the order rate was not successful hence why it was replaced at the LCi.
What cars they will come with is anybody's guess at this time.
After the new BMW X5M and X6M that will be launched later this year [2014]. The M2 will be the next all-new M car. There will be a hiatus until the next M5 but in between there will be the M4 GTS which could use the Orange colour as a nod to Fire Orange.

Hmm wouldn't say really M6 styled wheels more the current M6/M4/M3 here in the UK style wheels so spot on I'd say, although test mules do seems to look for like black versions of the US 18 M3/4 wheels.

I think it was closer the first time lol. Here, take a look at these two images, which aren't done by photoshop experts (as you can tell) but you seem to be good at it so maybe you can give it a go.

the main thing to realize is that the top line of the intake will not really be a sharp crease, it will be more of an indent, and it will be much higher above the triangle fin. You'll see what I mean by looking at these pics.

The line that runs beneath the headlight is the same line above the triangle fang.

I copied your image, the line I designated in red should be shifted upwards to the blue line's location, and that area where it used to be should be flat. The Vision GT concept is the best reference.

This sketch surfaced earlier over here. I horizontally flipped the front part of your sketch, Harold.

Gets you an idea about the front bumper.

A few minor tweaks and we may just be onto something here.

Beautiful sketch. I have a very particular eye for things, and you have gotten it pretty much right. Few minor tweaks, but this is what I expect. I would love a power dome, but not really expecting that.

This is a great sketch. One thing I don't like from the spy shots is the rounded rear end so I'm hoping that the interpretation of the rear wheel arch is much better

Best sketch I've seen so far.

Based on the GT6 concept and the drawing I have butchered your picture with MS Paint to reflect how I see the intakes on the bumper. I think they are a little too big in my attempt but I think but closer reflect the lines hinted by Scott, the concept and Adem1534.

SCOTT26 - How did I go??
