BSM. I love blue, but LBB just doesn't work for me. I might get it wrapped in blue or purple at some point.

HS, but Sunset Orange would be a wonderful choice if BMW would not put it on every single freaking car right now...

I want a M colour, not a colour that acts like it wants to be on every single car in the line up, especially not X1's and M240i's.

I am gonna wrap it over and over again... And I have some good ideas. I know black is better for wraps, but I absolutely hate black on a current BMW car. Doesn't go well with the lines of any BMW right now.

I went hockenheim, but I'd likely be ok with any color except black. Not that I don't like the looks, more that I don't like the upkeep.

After seeing it in person i went with HS (much more light gray with a touch of silver, not white at all). Having something (yet) unique is also appealing.

I went with white but was contemplating HS. I also like to have something a little unique but was hesitant without seeing it in person. After seeing this poll HS won’t be unique if over 40% of m2c owners get it. White may become the rare/unique color.

True, however HS is unique to the M2C.

BSM.

The M2 in a clean black is menacing. Yeah, I know of the pain of maintaining a black car, but BSM really suits the M2 in general.

The stormtrooper look is nice, don't get me wrong, but if you want to hide those rear fenders with AW, that's your prerogative. (OK, BSM doesn't do a much better job on that account, but I would still go BSM as AW might be my least favorite color.)

My previous car (F30) was AW. After 2 years of ownership, I promised myself that I would never get AW again as it was such a boring color for me at the time. I mean I still think AW isn't a special color not in terms of how common it is but more like it just looks alright. Now you are gonna ask me "Then why are you getting it?" lol. I literally don't like any colors offered on the M2C except for BSM and AW. So it's either AW or BSM for me. I agree that BSM looks amazing on the M2 but maintaining it would drive me crazy unless I got a full car clear bra or Xpel stealth wrap, which I'm still considering but it's an additional $4k-$5k. Therefore, only color left is AW... Choosing a color by eliminating other options is not the way to do this but all I can say is thanks BMW for giving us less color options than a regular 2-series

After seeing those teaser shots of BSM, maybe you should go with it. Although AW always looks great, even if it isn't a special color.

As I predicted, the bronze SO is the least popular color.

AW.

But, I think BSM will look the best. I had a BSM OG, it looked mean.
AW is always a great choice when not sure (no cost), racing pedigree, etc...

I would change to HS if I could see it in person.

The beauty of having a Fall production date will allow to see HS IRL...

Ordered Hockenheim Silver. It appears to be the most popular choice, even at my dealership. Almost every allocation before mine is HS.

I plan to either get it wrapped in a Nardo Grey or Xpel Stealth, just to be a bit different.
