Black or MG are both awesome. So is AW, that's why I'm getting it!

If you don't mind a dirty car or like to wash your car all the time get the black. Plus, BS will probably be the rarest color.

I've owned black cars for the most part. If it's a DD then ya, tough to keep on top of to keep clean. But if it's a weekend/leisure type of car like it would be for me (and so was my last black car), it's not a pain to keep clean. I actually enjoy cleaning her up...nothing beats a freshly washed/polished black 'sports' car.
I also do my best to dodge rainy forecasts etc. Which brings me back around to why I enjoy cleaning the car...cause I don't have to do it so often. That's the key lol

It will be my DD, neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night will stop me from driving it, ok maybe the snow... But it never snowed here, am ok.

I don't like to buy cars without having contact with the colours, but its extremely unlikely any of the dealers here will have a car for showroom anyway.
I've had an e60 silver grey, into a e coupe palladium grey, now as I had a good deal on my merc I'm using a white 116d... Don't like the white to be honest. Looking for a change but not as much as going into LBB.

I'm going to flip a coin at the dealer.

I may be flipping a coin too I'm not a big fan of white but the m2 I saw in person looked amazing in white (with the contrasting black bits). I think it's this particular white (AW) that's doing it. Such a pure white....
So far I have seen LBB and AW in person. But like you, I need to see the other two to make a final decision. I think I will get that chance since I won't get the car anytime soon

Well, when I make the order at my dealer I will be number 2, the 1st is a LBB, so I guess I won't see any in order to make my decision :/
They are promising that I will get it mid may... I'm not sure what to believe anymore.

Alright... err... placed the order, wallet is lighter.
Estimate production late May to early July (wtf)...

Yes, despite the difficulties of being a black car I will just keep in mind to use my "mild jet wash" at home every weekend or so ;D
I have a closed garage at home, closed garage at the office so it will be "protected" 20/7 to 22/7 heh

Glass silver / black Frame

Hey quick question. Why do I see black M2's with wither black or silver frames around the glass? I've ordered the black Sapphire and really hope mine comes with the black frame.

Weird things some countries have, for instance there isn't an option for Manual here, its either auto or auto...

Yeah I've heard it's different in various regions. I chose manual in Switzerland.

Man, there have only been a few pictures of the M2 in Black Sapphire where it's been cleaned and polished, but I feel its the best look this car has so far. The pictures in the Dubai dealership are stunning. Can't wait to see some more professional high res pictures of a clean one in black, I feel it's going to become a lot of people's favourite when the dust settles.

Black is up there with LBB for me.. I think LBB is my first choice with BSM a close second.

I've just bought a BSM here in Toronto. Its only a pic of it in the lot but man when I walked around it I was immediately sold. Plus the photos of the one in Dubai made me give up the LLB I had intended to get...
