"Whet your appetite". Sorry it was bothering me too much

But I'm liking LBB more and more. It just shows the curves and lines so much better than white.

Love everything so far including the sideskirts, but except the front spoiler/lip. Would have loved to see something more akin to the M3/M4 Performance parts in which they offer a more stark contrast, in addition to highlighting the aggressive front aerodynamic design. Just my $0.02

The only M Performance parts I'll be getting for my M2 are:

1. Interior parts (Pro steering wheel, 6MT CF shifter lever knob, stainless pedals) - absolutely
2. M Performance suspension - maybe

Because those are the only M Performance parts that I'll be touching when I drive the car or that have any effect on the car's performance. All the rest are for looks and sound only. In other words, cosmetic.

I have no interest in anything that will make my M2 look (and sound) more like a Subaru WRX.
Or a Mitsubishi EVO for that matter.
Leave that boy racer shit to the ricers.

Choosing AW because it shows off your M Performance parts is just sad.
Seriously. Why the fuck are you buying the car?
To act as a rolling catalog of M Performance parts?
I think not.

M2 is a perfect driver's car imo. I'll take it over M4 any day.

I'm sure it'll be a fun little entry model M, not too sure about the front bumper.

IMHO - White doesn't really flatter this car. Too many oblique surfaces.

Oh boy.. I don't know why people have the need to do this?

I like the M4 and enjoyed driving it, but the amount of shit I can talk about it vs the Porsche GT4 is...a lot, to be frank. But I am not going into the F80/82 forums and doing that.

It is ok not to like front bumper or its looks, but these comments are pure trolling.

The M2 got a lot more looks from me (and a whole lot of people) at the auto show than the F80 ZCP next to it. Poor F80 with Comp Pkg... was sitting there by it's lonesome self, while the LBB M2 was getting all the camera shots and attention. In fact, except for the i8, the M2 was BMW king at the DC auto show (no, there was no M4 GTS..hehe).

The M4 is a beautiful car, but c'mon guys...no need to talk shit about the M2 which is a great looking car in its own right and is going to be loads of fun.

Gorgeous response to a couple of classless comments.

Sounds like middle child syndrome to me. Mommy's new baby taking all the attention so they gotta flip over their cereal bowl and knock everything off the shelves to get attention.

Very well said. The M2 is out there center stage while the M4 is hiding out in its dressing room taking selfies and updating its twitter account.

I love it! It's a spectacular color. Black except when in the sun. The car handles like a dream. Can't go wrong with an M4 or M2. I like a little larger car/more space.
Thanks a lot with your answer! and YEAHHHHH the color is simply amazing, ...in the sun, the dark blue indigo pop ! Dark navy blue always been my favorite color! You have a Sakir Orange interior?

Not a fan of white on this car... or the blue, saw it in real life and it just isn't for everyone. Black on the other hand...

If only this had:
1. Two more doors
2. 100 lbs lesser weight (maybe CF roof?)
3. Full Napa/ merino leather at least as an option
4. Front parking sensors.
6. HUD
7. Adjustable dampers

I would then take this over an M3 at M3 price tag.
