Well i must be the mother then because that M2 looks epic. Add black kidneys, side gills and titanium tip MPE and it's one stealth motor.

MG shows the curves and buldge best, black is black will always be a good option on most cars, whites ok too, LBB is super but will wear off on most people only a true fanatic can go with LBB and stick with it. Its the most extreme obviously but the more original and m2 marked colour out of them all.

Solution for me would be LBB as soon as its out, have it for summer or a year then sell it and get a Mineral Grey with full carbon bits, That for me would be ace !!!

Same point of view here. LBB and the risk of facing the "Uh-Oh Moment" after some time. Iceberg ahead.

Valid point.

If you wanna go stealth with the M2, go MG. And that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Would you have ordered VO if it was offered? I would have. I'm going to miss it.

Affirmative.

VO M2 would have been an instant homerun for BMW. But apparently they don't want that. Ah, maybe they're saving a bright orange/red for the M2 sibling (let's just call it the 'M2 variant') that's currently in the works.





Going stealth now.

I'm now thinking a nice matte vinyl protection wrap on the MG.

I prefer MG, attracts less attention until people get closer. LBB looks good but I think you'll see it out there more than any other color.

I'll order MG with the orange performance calipers.

If only there weren't so many gray/bland colored cars on the road all the time, I would have considered it. But my E90 was SGM so unfortunately I no longer wish to own a gray BMW. Looking forward to seeing it in person though at some car meets, hopefully!
