I'm going to try and PM some of you guys, but I need a local (Raleigh area) owner with a 2016 or 2017 M2 for pictures and interview for an upcoming Roundel article. It would help if you are an BMW CCA member, but not mandatory. I would prefer a car that is stock, or at least stock looking from the outside. Please PM me if interested.

Thanks,
Michael

Sorry, but I'm in Asheville. Wish I was closer for you as mine is stock.

Cary, NC here...

So, I have a no frills, just thrills, stripper M2C 6MT in Black on order. WOOT!

A local dealer says the next allocation is mine, as I deposited 1,000 bucks for the privilege.

At first I ordered Silver, but I changed it to Black... I know I’ll love the Black. I suspect I would love the Silver too, but I haven’t seen this special Silver with my own eyes.

I probably have two or three weeks before I’m locked in on color.

It would be nice to see Hockenheim Silver in person before the deadline. If anyone around Cary, or RDU, has a Silver M2C that I could stare at for a few minutes, I’d think you are the coolest cat in town.

I’ve had three black and three silver vehicles, so I’m familiar with the ups and downs of both colors.

BTW, which car meets do you guys go to around here?

Congratulations on the car! Mine is LBB so unfortunately I can't help with the color thing.

I see you have a SS. Do you hang with the the local Holden groups? I had a Pontiac G8 and met some good folks.

I’ll park with them at the cars and coffee meets, but haven’t been as much the last year.

I’ve really enjoyed the SS, but looking forward to the M2C!

They will have one at the Performance Center if you’re willing to drive there to see one.

Yea, another Cary person! Congrats on the new car.

There are a few Saturday morning cars&coffee events, although they move around a bit because we keep getting thrown out of locations d/t bad behavior.

Morrisville outlet mall near the airport is still going on I think, first Saturday of the month, and there's one in wake forest as well. There was an effort to do one in Cary at the Publix but I don't think it made it.

We should all plan to meet next weekend in Morrisville... weather permitting of course.

The Morrisville C and C was moved to Miami Blvd. a while back, then moved to the closed Sams Club behind Walmart at 540 and 54.

But the next Morrisville C and C, according to the Facebook page, will be 8-11 on Sunday May 5 at Creekstone shopping center, 5400 Miami Blvd. to help support the Red Balloon Project for kids with cancer.

A good cause, for sure, I think I’ll go to that one!

I’ll be looking for M2’s, I don’t even have a VIN yet, patiently waiting.

Hope to see y’all there

Probably my last meet in my Chevy SS, as it has a pre-purchase inspection next week!

Thanks for the update on the C&C. Hopefully I'll see you (and a bunch of M2 owners) there.

I sold my SS last summer. Don't miss it.

Here is Alex, me and Gary (left to right) meeting in Cary for my story.

Update: apparently the C&C in Morrisville has moved to RTP, a shopping center off of Miami Blvd I believe. 8-11 this Saturday.

I spied an LBB M2 in my rearview this morning about 6:50am on I-85S. We both exited on Harris Blvd and then they queued up to turn left onto IBM Dr. I was in the "red-ish" Chevy SS they probably thought was a Malibu.

Anyway, sharp looking car.

I ordered a black M2C on March 27.

Dealer got an allocation and I got a week 27 build.

Waiting...

Since March, I’ve been looking for M2s in the wild.

A month ago I saw a blue M2 go blue looking cool!

Yesterday, heading off to the mountains, I spotted a black M2C in Cary!

It looked so awesome!!!

Instantly, my waiting patiently mode went straight to... I want it now, gimme the keys!

I'm still going back and forth whether I should finish out the last two years of payments on my SS, and have 'em both or trade in the SS.

I'm really having a hard time thinking about letting go of the SS.
