This is a reasonable example as it captures MB in bright light, but doesn't mute the gold wheels. I was under the impression the the muted nature of frozen gold would be present in most lighting, but I'm starting to see that is not the case. They look mostly gold in most light when viewed incident to the wheel. Last edited by medphysdave; 05-01-2020 at 02:20 PM.. |

Here's some... I feel as I must go back on my original statement that gold wheels with red calipers will look weird. Looks pretty nice.

Interesting market in Australia . . . appears everything costs double what it does in the U.S. with regard to M2C and M2CS. Have no idea of the financial structure in Australia, including currency exchange, but $120K for an M2C and $165K for an M2CS sounds REALLY expensive in any currency and market. I assume that is why there are so many of each, in relative terms, available. Best paint to wheel color combo is still HS and black. . . Competition or CS. Fact that there are so many M2CS available seems to lend credence to notion that prospective buyers are not lined up to obtain M2CS. Multiple factors, of course, including Covid, economy, cost . . . and what I perceive as an overall lack of interest associated with what the M2CS does not offer over the M2C for price differential. Finally, on the Australian website it indicates 'drive away' which I assume means the M2CS listed are available at dealership? At very least, it appears all are already spec'd and without option for purchaser optioning? If so, how is it possible the M2CS is already available and BMW has yet to even pursue a press release? ///AVM |

Well, I am sure there are other factors in Australian vehicle pricing that make the differences in price significant.
The projected $85K in U.S. for M2CS is already bogus . . . but I am pretty certain even Dave would not consider the M2CS 'exclusive enough' to warrant $102K. At any rate, clearly Australians are not lined up to get the M2CS, and I would not be surprised to see U.S. dealerships with M2CS sitting on their lot at some point as well. ///AVM Not that anyone needs this to be pointed out to them, but Covid impact on economy and car sales will become increasingly apparent. Pre-Covid, good luck trying to get a 718 GT4 chassis build. Finding a new, unclaimed GT4 on dealership lot the equivalent of a small miracle. Will be interesting to see how long this one sits still . . . https://www.porschebeachwood.com/det...5lk289171.html |

@AVM you are correct. I'd have to jump ship at $102k. Probably lower actually. Im still debating CCB, which I'm guessing would put me at around $95k all in, which seems an ill move. That's going to be too close to c8 Z06 and gets me thinking about a GT3. Currently there isn't another 4 seat car like the M2CS that I feel passionate about.

Not sure I missed something, but all of the above images were the same to my eye? Other than that, was there something more to the images than 'meets the eye?' They just appeared to be another image of a blue M2Cs with black wheels, suggesting I missed the point of your posting them? ///AVM |

M2cs is USD$98k Drive away means final price including all taxes of which there are many. But Australian average salaries are generally higher than US. For comparison drive away price on 992 Carrera 2s here is usd$210k If you click the ad you will see the words "available to order". There no cars in the country. So it's either click bait to get people to call or perhaps one or two people have dropped out. |
