It’s starting to feel like the E46 days, although completely different scenario. E46 330 ZHP owners vs E46 M3 owners. That was so annoying.

Tweaks to the render are being done based on a closer look at the leaked pic and comments from insiders, also more colours of the car to be done too based on the leaked information...

A little patience folks ;-)

lol, a couple of days at most for me. I'll do a stock Competition, a full spec one and my dream car with bits I'd like to be in the CS even though they won't be made...

Thank you.

I’m really interested in just a few things:

- what will HKS really look like? Can’t wait to see real pics
- how bulbous will the new kidneys be? I’m hoping they’re only very slightly bigger
- will the rear get any love? Might be the most obvious “plain” area of the M2
- will the Comp sit any lower? The regular M2 has a great stance, wish it was a tiny bit lower and more aggressive.

That’s it - I’m sure all the other tweaks will look good.

Would be good to make the comparison unembellished. I had not heard the M2C will have CCB even as an option... and you can get performance suspension on either. Plus, what is with the blackouts and window tinting?

Render looks spot on. Personally I wish they would tone down the kidneys; I'm not a fan of the new look. But hey at least they aren't upside down like the X2/Z4.

And for everyone freaking out about the gurney flap it's basically just the typical lip spoiler. I find the anger around this comedic given how many people glue tack-on CF lips to their trunks.

A traditional lip looks nice IMO - a gymnastics bar, on the other hand, doesn't.

This is all we have, a leaked pic in poor lighting and pics of it way off in the distance.

P.S.

If you have time could you also add the wheels from the BMW Vision Gran Turismo to your renders? They appear to be visually similar to the wheels on the spy pics from Estoril race track. And please remove the stupid red time attack stripe around those wheels and make them all black.

Thanks!

Tag, if you're lusting after the BMW GT6 Vision Concept wheels: they exist already since 2013: 405M 2-Series M Performance wheels (19" forged light alloy wheels).

For the virtual car they simply gave those wheels a black finish and added a red stripe or rim protector. See this post.

Didn't realize those are the same wheels, they look completely different in all black. Really fools the eyes.

Does anyone think that the new 788m wheels might look like the old e9x m3 gts wheels? I loved those wheels.
