Ordered my M2 yesterday, then this happened…

Yesterday, I submitted an order for my M2 from the same dealer I purchased my F87 from. I was torn on color choice between Brooklyn Gray and Voodoo Blue but decided to go with gray to play it safe (my M2 was HS) and the $2,400 price difference made the decision easier.

Fast forward to today, my SA calls me and tells me they have another M2 just came off the truck (no PDI which is how I prefer to take delivery) in Voodoo Blue. Buyer backed out, ordered in July of last year.

Only changes from how I would’ve ordered it are, they didn’t option shadow line headlights, heated steering wheel (not a huge deal) and they opted for blue calipers not red. Would’ve really preferred red, but can always paint them.

My deal was already for 6% off and ended up getting over 7% on this one and can take delivery tomorrow. The base MSRP was also $600 less so the order must have been placed prior to the price increase.

My biggest concern in not initially choosing Voodoo was the added attention. I’m not one to alter my spec, but this was so close I couldn’t say no. Really pumped about getting the Voodoo now too.

Lucky! Most of the options missed are minimal, in my opinion though the shadowline headlights would have been nice.

For sure, especially with how cheap the option is. At least it has the adaptive lights, black wheels, carbon trim and importantly for me manual transmission. Makes no sense he didn’t option shadow line with the black wheel option.

Congrats! Pics when you pick it up! I’m curious how it looks without the shadow line headlights.

7% off is a great deal no matter what the color or spec.

Definitely happy with the price, great dealership to work with all around. Price doesn’t mean a lot to me if the spec is not what I want though. I could always retrofit the headlights to shadowline though if it bothers me.

I hope it doesn’t stand out in person, I think the only difference is the silver accent piece at the top of the headlight.
