New shot of G87 M2 gives better idea of the Zandvoort color

Sedan_Clan · 10-07-2022, 05:31 PM

I miss my Yas M4 sometimes. Depending on the time of day it's photographed, it often looks like two different blues.

Hopefully they just say "Z" Blue, and shouldn't it have been an Orange?

Every BMW corporate and/or dealership employee I've ever spoken to over the past 22 years has pronounced my favorite color red as...uh MO la.

There's a metallic; more silver-ish though. It has quite a sheen to it. There's a golden metallic to Lime Rock Gray on the M4CS though.

Not necessarily… Porsche is way more careful with changing the world unlike BMW

Completely understand that it is not for everyone. Just funny to see it so universally hated similar to the 997.1 GT3RS in green. At time of release 99% of people despised it. Only 18 were ordered in the US and now they get a huge premium in the market.
