M2: 'Murica Edition
Spotted this gem while surfing around:
https://www.laurelbmw.com/new/BMW/20...7cae9748a8.htm Looks like someone outfitted it as a pace car or something.. Good luck selling it for $70K!  |

Now I hope I don't offend any patriotic USA chaps here, but I think most will agree, that is one butt-ugly car. Why, oh why. While I fully appreciate patriotism, you have to be tasteful in these things too. I mean, the German-styled car they made during the World Cup was actually pretty slick. This on the other hand...oh well, each to their own I guess!

Apparently you can blame artist Adam Forsythe for winning this art contest.

this car just depreciated all M2s by at least 10%.

I like how they still list the exterior color as "alpine white."
Needs some bright red wheels and a bald eagle hood ornament over the roundel to complete the look. |

Yeah, this is embarrassing as an American. I get it, we love our heritage and flag, but come on. Maybe if they were planning to auction it off for a veteran organization like wounded warrior project or something, that would be cool. Other than that, it's just a gaudy, ridiculous looking M2, that luckily is only a wrap.

Not my can o' beer either but I do kind of appreciate it for what it is, a project a la the art cars from a different era.
It's not flattering for the curves of the car, I'll say that. |

Guess that pink license plate frame just ties it all together. Ugh.
I like how the description doesn't even mention the giant elephant in the room....nothing to see here.....carry on.

Since it's a wrap you can peal off. it's like 70k for an m2 with a roll cage and rear seat delete already, 763s, harness, upgraded steering wheel and shifter, and mperf exhaust carbon tips. Does that add up to ~15k, not sure.

Also, you can't just peel off wrap.. It takes time and a professional touch to do it right |
