I've inquired about the ZSP with my SA, will let you guys know what he says.

Damn, still my favorite shot and one of the reasons I'm happy I stuck with LBB.

I find it extremely funny that the next car - (whatever that was at the time) was going to be White no matter what. It's what I had on my EVO 8 and what I missed on my EVO X.

Fast forward to the present. - I ordered an LBB Color car.....WTF?

Actually, you are correct! I think lately LSB has been less controversial. But yes, initially LSB did cause a commotion. Estoril is a "safer" color, albeit a classic one, so going to smurf blue definitely bothered many.

So the answer regarding the sunroof in Canada is a resounding.....maybe.

According to my SA, it is used for unique requests that have to be approved by BMW. He says we should be able to order it, but cost would be $400 for ZSP code plus approval and whatever price BMW feels like charging for it.

He also noted adding stuff tends to be harder and much more expensive compared to deleting stuff (i.e. Delete just sports seats from a fully loaded car).

If it helps give you an idea of pricing the sunroof costs $2600 AUD here

I'm in the same situation.

[FSociety]

They both look great but i agree that AW in person is my fav!
AW and LBB are prob the best colors in my book, MG is nice too.
Ha, i currently have AW on my X3 and would have gotten the X4 M40i in AW too but wanted to try LBB.

On an M3, AW is the standard bearer. It looks great because of the contrast with the carbon fiber bits. I was looking hard for an e92 M3 in AW/FR with a CF roof and MT, so I love white with carbon fiber. For the M2, it just didn't sit well with me. Now if the M2 had a carbon fiber roof/diffuser/mirrors etc, it would be great!

The only thing standard standard on the M3 is the roof. The diffuser and mirrors are performance parts just like the M2.

Yea, I threw the diffuser in there....They come with CF mirrors too don't they?

Edit: Nevermind, I was off on the mirrors too. Dang, too many modded cars screwing with my mind, haha.

[Russkey]

In most cases I prefer Alpine White, but I would go with the blue for M2!

[Hoonigan808]

A camera just can't catch the color of the LBB. That blue looks so much nicer in person than in pictures.

[superherorockstar]

LBB FTW

[SMC23]

Agreed on LB looking too turquoise. Went to the Autoshow and in artificial lighting it looks completely blue, but out in the open, especially in the sunlight you can see the green hue. Because of this I will be considering AW or BSM.

[raysspl]

Can we please have sakhir orange as an option... pretty please...

[dmboone25]

AW looks great - LBB, still doesn't do it for me...

What's up with the cars parked next to these baby Ms??? Show some respect nasty truck/mini-van owners!

[AlexGT]

If I upgrade from the M235i to the M2, first thing I'll do is to replace that ugly exhaust... those tips look "odd", I don't know, too slim, to far from each other :/
