Additional Color for M2 LCI?
Yesterday I was chatting to a "BWM Genius" who said the Seaside Blue and the Sunset Orange were available options for the M2 LCI. After posting the conversation on here I decided that maybe he'd confused the M2 with the MSport. So today I called them and spoke to a different guy who said they are definitely available for the M2 and he wasn't confusing it with the MSport. He then said I could have any colour, at which point I realised he probably didn't know what he was talking about. I explained to him the issue with the Leipzig plant...
why-will-the-bmw-m2-only-have-four-colors He then said he'd need to speak to HQ and he'd call back, which he did a couple of hours later to say there were no custom colours. When I asked if the Sunset Orange was still an option he said he didn't know and I would have to wait until July when production starts. So in summary, no one working at BWM knows. Well, I'm sure someone does. He or She is just not telling anyone else. All I wanted was a yes or no. I'm not that bothered. I'm more bothered no one at BWM can tell me. Does anyone on here know? M2Wolf posted the UK LCI price list is below and it doesn't mention additional colours http://https://juicelp-dev.s3.amazon...F87+LCI+PT.pdf Last edited by Lieutenant Biscuits; 05-12-2017 at 02:24 PM.. |

All of the LCI promotional materials for other countries released so far only show the original 4 colors, so draw your conclusion from those.

Trusting a BMW genius is like trusting a fortune teller.

Ok the whole thing with BMW Genius / Sales / Marketing not being able to tell you what they are selling is so old now, it's surprising people are still incredulous at the confidently provided, yet incorrect, info they vomit across the phone or into your email inbox. They are, on the whole, f'ing stupid and lack sufficient critical thinking and honesty to know when they don't know info.
In my experience, BMW Genius is worthless unless you want to know what production stage your car is in, which they should have automated long ago. |

The BMW Oracle....err I mean Genius that I dealt with was pretty knowledgable and owned an M3 so was an enthusiast as well. Always easy to paint a broad picture, but capable people show up sometimes. All experiences come down to meeting the correct individual who can either make or ruin your day.
