Is it only me or does it really not have dual slat M grills? It looks like it has regular kidney grills.

Edit: I know the production model will have the dual slats. I was just wondering why this one didn't get one since it somewhat affects how the car looks

It's one of the test mules tested on the Nürburgring:

By far the most boring color on the M2.
And allthough the M2 is a very agresive looking car, in black it just got a bit dull imo.
A nice "color" in general, but not on this beast, it deserves something more, like LBB or AW.

Not for me does nothing for the car.

[Colinv6]

By far the nicest looking M2 I've seen yet. Nice to see one in the final of the 4 colours.

I'm so fed up with seeing LBB already.

Hard to tell if it's the color or the photos, but I'm not impressed at all...

For years, i was so sure i was going to buy this car. But sometimes it looks just weird. Maybe i need to see one in person. Don't know, i have that with 1M too. Pictures are like, meh... But when i see the one 1M in person, wow awesome car. Maybe it will be the same for me with the M2. I'll have my MG M235i serviced personally in march-april 2016. So i can get a good look at the new M2 at my local dealership. I think i would order mine in black or white. Saw once a couple of great shots of the new M4 in BSM, here on the forum. White is good for contrast. Especially with the ALPHA-N front add on fang covers, as seen in the renderings. Shame we don't get a special seat and a carbonfibre roof would have been nice. All 4 colors are nice colors. It's just hard to choose. MG is out for me, have MG on my current car.

Think of it this way: you don't have to look at a car while you're driving it.
And isn't the driving part the most important?

I'm the same in some regards prefer understated although I've been toying with the idea of YMB rather than my go to grey for a F80!

I like everything about it except the rear light cluster! But I had the same issue with the 1Ms rear lights too.

Anyway subjective preferences perhaps!

Liking BSM though.

Totally agree on this one. The rear lights should have been more slim/sleek or something..they are too "high" and not wide enough..

[termigni]

wow it looks this good dirty. imagine how good it will look clean.

Maybe it's also the fact that it's pretty dirty and not even beautiful sunny weather as we're used to seeing in the beauty shots of the cars

I'm a BIG fan of black cars - make them look awesomely mean and still in clean state and sunny weather it looks freaking awesome... But still a massive fan of the LBB and MG as well (Recently had a F30 in MG and now my F30 is black)

Not sure how you can go wrong with a smaller chassis, M3/M4 suspension and 370 Hp... I'm holding out for the competition package or CSL. Only thing wrong on the car is electric steering which can be looked over.

The other thing wrong with it is that it's heavy.

Never mind, this thread is about color. Black wouldn't do for me, and I don't like the pronounced teal aspect in LBB. That leaves white, or grey. I think I'd have to get something a lot bolder, most likely individual. A Dakkar yellow perhaps, or Ferrari red or Imola red.

True the weight is very bad. But there are aftermarket items that can help with that for the true enthusiast. Not saying that makes the weight okay. Should've been a lot lighter.
