It does look great there, but I feel like that’s not a true representation of MB - it looks darker in this picture compared to the times I’ve seen it.

I don't doubt the authenticity of the picture, but that's not how Misano Blue looks in real life to the naked eye.

I wasn't originally digging the "Smurf Blue" on the M2 CS but the color has really grew on me since then.
It sure does give vehicle a distinctive appearance, sort of like what Valencia Orange did for the 1M and Frozen Dark Gray Metallic for the M4 GTS. So I'm going to reserve judgement on this signature color until I see one in person.. |

BMW might've wised up and blacked it out. Not sure if that is the same exhaust as the M2C or a completely different exhaust.

I rather like the bright blue on the CS. Silver all the way for me though. |

Although, it somehow looks better on the M2cs? I think it looks best in direct sun light.....in the shade it is dull and boring. |

The point is that the M4cs was offered in exclusive colors such as San Marino blue and Lime rock Grey, specific for this model, the M2cs is available in the X2 color. Mystery. |

What they really want you to do is have a hard time finding one, or getting annoyed at the lack of color choices, or the lack of options (such as DCT in the 1M, M buttons and mirrors in the OG M2, lack of adaptive suspension in the M2C, lack of availability with the M2CS, etc.) and step right on up to the M3/4. For which they have a much bigger profit margin and which matter much more to the overall success of the company. But maybe I’m just jaded.

Colour isn't factory related either, M2 Leipzig is it and X2 Regensberg, finally Z4 in Austria at Steyer?
M2 Product team literally constricted on not having 'too nice' a paint. With the stitching/interior and brakes being Red it's even more bizarre the IMHO non complimentary MB is the chosen launch colour.

Nonetheless, I bet there will be much more than 250 as US is such a large market for CS vehicles.
