They look all black there due to low lighting, but they are not. They are the 29U. See here.

BMW really trolling everyone with this car; "is HS silver or white?"; "are those wheels black or silver?" :
Watched the video you linked and yes I agree with you.

The wheel choices are:
Two tone, black barrel silver face
Two tone, black barrel gunmetal face

I think it was supposed to be Global, but maybe BMW Canada did not get the memo.

As for the exhaust:
Owning an F80 and an OG M2. S55 takes a lot longer to warm up, IMO. Curious if that is still the case?

29U Wheels:
Those are the wheels from the promotional video where the female driver and BMW rep were explaining details of the car in a warehouse setting.
Yeah, I almost wondering if they'll ask for the car back in exchange for some free stuff. I recall someone got an AMG before they were certified to be driven legally on the roads and it was a whole thing because the dealer wanted the car back but they already sold it.

The image you referred to are not what you will get when ordering black wheels.

The black wheels on the OP's car are what you will get. I think the color is great.

The black wheels on the OP's car are prefect.

Guess I’m the only that can clearly see the tinted clear coat on the wheels. Most of if not all of the M2C with 788M wheels we have seen had the 29U fitted all along. In fact I can’t find an example of 2QT.

So I'm on my Euro Delivery trip with my 10 year old son, and yesterday, took possession of my baby!

Benjamin, the wonderful guide I had, told me this is the first Euro Delivery they've done there of the M2 Competition!

I was really worried about ordering a silver colour, sight unseen, as I find silver is the most boring colour you can get on a car. But this colour is gorgeous! Hints of grey outside of the sunlight, which is beautiful.

I've seen tons of pics posted lately, so I'll post just a few and confirm one thing that I was surprised to see. I ordered the car with Black 788M wheels (option code 29U), and thought at first they had given me the regular wheels that are bi-colour, as I expected them to be all black, like the 666M wheels. But they are not black. Their face is a tinted gunmetal grey as you'll see from my photos below. The face of the regular bi-colour wheels is regular bright silver. That's the only difference I can tell. The photos you've seen of them in the ordering guides are actually accurate!

The pics are taken at the Welt, other than the third and second to last, which were outside the Welt, so you get an idea of the car and wheel colours in the sun, and the last one, parked in the garage.

I'll be starting my trip tomorrow, so I'll get to post driving impressions after. For now, I just drove in heavy traffic back to the hotel, but can confirm the brakes are really powerful! Only thing I wish is that the exhaust was louder, with more burbles, like the M4 Competition Pack, but that's fixable.

For those who are curious, my itinerary, which is a bit ambitious, is about 2000 KM driving in 7 days. Munich to Austria via Grossglockner pass (to go see Bayern Munich play Paris St Germaine - not bad ), then to west to Italy to drive the Stelvio pass, then north to see the Neuschwanstein castle, then up to Stuttgart for the Porsche Museum via the German alps, then up to the Ring for 2 days via the Black Forest road, and back down to Munich, cuz I gotta hit the Autobahn seriously by that point, after having done the Alps in 3 countries.

Congrats. Curious if they updated the key for the m2c as our pregnant key sucks for us 1st gen owners lol. Post pics!
