Definitely deserves its only thread, first time seeing Sunset Orange on Comp. Although it is quite dirty. Plus first time seeing 437M wheels on Comp.

Agreed - I think it deserves it's own thread.

This looks really good and orange seats/stitching!!!

Is there a story behind this pic capture?

This is the combo I want to see in real life pics. LBB with black 788M wheels.

Be patient.

Christ this is more in the direction of what I would like to see when it comes to a Orange / Red, but then again the car is dirty and it is not a decent representation of this 'special' color that you find on simply every single BMW right now. It such a pity it is being used everywhere and we have seen it so often on the M135i, M140i, M235i and M240i.

It's also raining and is most likely overcast and not a true representation of what SO looks like in direct sunlight. Want to see the M2c in all available colors outdoors and in direct sunlight. FvM said pricing would be released mid-May. Maybe we see more pics and vids at that time? *fingers crossed*

This is the issue. You can go to a dealer and see SO on a real car, but you can't see HS and you won't be able to until the M2C's start arriving. If you have an early allocation, its a shot in the dark.

I guess there are much, much, MUCH worse problems however.....

Hoping at a minimum dealers get color swatches for the M2c so we can see HS IRL. It's not the same as seeing it on the car, but at least it's something.

Now I can confidently eliminate HS and sunset orange from the colour I want... that leaves white and black.... also, it seems that if they have changed any suspension components on the M2C, it's still riding at the same height as the old M2 (or at same adjusted height in the pics)... I would've been so much happier if all they did was drop the S55 engine in and left it at that... kept everything else the same, specially kept the MG colour and same front grille (and possibly same front bumper)

IMHO this colour is not not good. A good colour looks good on a dull day and a sunny day.

Happy to see the better wheels with the big brake kit.

Thanks for posting the pics! Personally I'm a fan after seeing a m240i in the same colour. Looks good in person imo.

I like the new changes to the grill and bumper ... what I dont like is the potential exhaust noise and the lack of color I'm interested in. if it were available in Mineral Grey I would be All Over this car. I'm potentially taking my money to a different brand. We need a white and a pearly white? Scarey part is, we won't see the HS in person until we take delivery. :
