Scott said that corner pic that we had all been looking at was not an M2!

That's how I took it too - which means there's hope that the the M2 Comp's grilles won't be overly large (which I personally do not like as well as the original size).

Watched this YouTube vid last night and remembered you guys discussing Sunset Orange...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0rUhHQM3lc This M240i is in Sunset Orange, but you can see they filmed in Canada on a really cloudy day and the car looks more red. In fact, I didn't catch the beginning where it looks more orange, and about halfway through I mentioned to my wife that this red looks really cool, before watching more and realizing it wasn't red. I think in bright sunlight you see the orange come out, but in dimmer light it looks much more red to my eyes. It's a more interesting color than I realized. |

Sakhir Orange looks good but the examples I have seen of Sunset orange have been meh. Valencia Orange was a far more vibrant color.

Scott, can you clarify? We're you talking about the front end grills or the HS paint sample?

The new M2 is all about a more visceral experience which in the current car is phenomenal. I have not driven it but I can't wait to." Last edited by ChrisK; 03-23-2018 at 10:30 AM.. |

I far prefer Estoril Blue if it's going to be a light shade of blue... the darker blue/blacks like Tanzanite Blue, Azurite Black and Carbon Black are my faves. |

That is what I meant. The car leaked here by Gatte IS the M2 Competition.

They should do one in San Marino blue!
I may have to do one myself. That would be rare. (Someone photoshopped the photo below, which of course is of the current model). Seems like the M3/4 CS and M5 and current M3 (which several of us did individually) look amazing in SMB.
