First BMW began offering fashion colors for M sport brakes... (orange yellow and red... vs OEM Blue) And now.. according to you .. NO M cars come with brake color options, because they all have the same color options which are none because they come in blue. Except if you order ceramics then you get gold. Except on the M2 which doesn't offer ceramic. But then there Is one M car in which you can get either Blue, silver , or red calipers. That's the M2 Competition. I wonder when a fourth color (gold ) will be available on an M2, as shown on the M2 moto gp safety car.. . And finally... Since Aftermarket calipers for the M2 Competition are RED.. what color would the same items be if purchased for an M3 or M4? Is there an aftermarket color coming for carbon Ceramic calipers as well...perhaps Pewter...... or would those also revert to RED? I'm trying to sort out the BMW M OEM- M Performance - M Sport Caliper Color wheel.... while you tell me M cars only come with a single color.. So i ask you my friend..... because I believe I have answered your query multiple times... what BMW M car can you get multiple caliper color options on.... ?

The weight savings are just a bonus in my book - but those benefits aren't enough for me to be willing to let an uninformed and unpracticed dealer employee tear the roof off of my car to install one. I'm hoping that there's an option for factory install by the time I am ready to buy an M2C (early 2020).

Agreed - I would make it all match, which would be worth the price of admission.

The “Competition” nomenclature is part of the new marketing strategy at BMW ///M. It replaces the Competition Package option to become its own model designation as part of the new hierarchy: Base / Competition / CS / CSL. The same has been done to the F90 M5 that is offered as a Base model and Competition model. The quirk with the M2 is that the Base M2 is no longer offered due to the N55 not meeting the new EU emissions standards.

All it needs is the headliner fitted to a plastic inner with something like a Christmas clip into certain points on the roof and you have a fully removable roof. Most dealers (at least here in Australia) would probably send it to their BMW nominated panel shop to spray, install. Not such a bad thing. IMHO Thing is BMW could quietly do exactly the same thing at the factory and no-one would be the wiser and everyone would be happy. Personally, I'm waiting until I see the price list before I order but if the price is right I'll install it. (problem is that in Oz we have Luxury Car Tax which adds 33% to the price of a new car over approx $66K so price is a big deal. M2 is about $100K before taxes. ) |

Unless it comes installed from factory, I'll take the wrap!

I would never put a fake carbon roof wrap on my car. Talk about poser! This is akin to putting a M logo on a Pontiac.
