Nice!
I have a BG, black wheels/red calipers, M color seats, 6 speed, m performance spoiler.

I was supposed how quick Minnetonka got me an allocation; I went sent in my build in late June, was told it would be it would be a long wait as I was number 12 in line, but 3 weeks later I had my allocation. I received it in early October.

I won the tire lottery, but lost the rear clip lottery. My sales advisor was saying he would need to check with ‘corporate/factory’ to see if he could get me replacements ws he wasn’t sure if they were suppose to come with the M2 (even after I pointed out the clips on every m/m lite car on the lot). I also sent him numerous threads from here to show him that they were indeed suppose to come with them. I think I wore him down and he purchased some with his own cash as he randomly texted me one day and said that they in. I would have purchased them on my own as they aren’t that expensive, but it became a principle type of thing.

That is sweet. You have the 1st local BG I have heard of on here. ScottyRyan2019 has a white one, Chet for short has a red one, and mine is black. I wonder if there are any local ZF blue ones on here?

My allocation process started back in Oct 2022 getting on the list at Minnetonka, then getting on Motorwerks list in March 2023. I backed out of both lists this past July (when both contacted me saying it was go time to order a car) in favor of keeping my previous car since I wasn't able to sell it for the price I wanted. Then another forum member bought my M240i in October, then I test drove a 6 speed M2 and it was game over. Got back on Minnetonka's list and they said I should have something by summer/fall 2024. My guy at Motorwerks randomly texted me late November saying there was an allocation someone backed out of so I grabbed it. Got the car late January. It worked out really well.

Do you ever go to any local car shows?? My family usually goes to the autoplex events in Chanhassen and Medina a few times a year. It would be sweet to line some M2's up and talk shop.

Just went on the website and saw that the lip was 490€… and they are located 180km from home, so think I will go this route !
Sure thing. I love it so far. I don’t ever have to worry about rock chips. The finish is great and subtle.

Yeah, let’s totally gets some M2’s at the shows! I usually hit up Cars and Coffee downtown and the Medina shows.

I’ve met Chet in person, great guy. He let me scope out his M2 when I was waiting for mine. I have been talking to someone else who has a black one; hopefully he will make it out to some shows as well. I haven’t seen any other BG’s around; I recently saw a white one getting into 494 from 94 last Thursday. I saw a ZB in July of last year leaving the C&C show, it haven’t seen any other ones.

I'll definitely be at some C&C

Nice! First white one I’ve seen, it looked great.

It was fun seeing one from the rear, it’s so low and wide.

And that's stock height ( not going to lower it ) but the rear tires are a tad bit wider as they are 295/30/20

Spacers go on this coming week and hopefully get my tint done in the next week or two

Nice! Chet was very helpful to me as well with answering questions and such when I was getting close to pulling the trigger.

I've only seen ZF blue ones in the wild. 1 was the car I test drove at BMW minnetonka, and the other was at the Medina autoplex last summer. Looking forward to car show season.

Was it the preowned one they had for a while? I’m thinking that’s the one I saw at C&C last summer.

Now his bill includes repairing the paint underneath and replacing the film in that section (since it’s on the hood, maybe it’s a $500 bill just for the PPF), unless the film has some sort of warranty against that.
Wasting your time man.. I just hope to one day feel passion for ANYTHING as much as it seems like he does for ppf. 🙃

Btw, I think I saw your car at Drifters a couple of weeks ago lunchtime? You might have seen me looking at it on my way out because you started the car to scare me away haha. I had my Bronco with me.
Thank you!

I was definitely having lunch at drifters! Only time I've been there in at least a year. I'm sorry, I promise I didn't do that on purpose. My girlfriend noticed your truck though haha. She drives a bronco sport. Small world!

Had to take the M2 out today with the sun shining. I can't get over how insane these CSL style 827M beadlocks from VFC Performance look on the car. Traction is much improved, even in these cold temps. I probably should raise it up a little bit as there is a little rubbing when turning, but it's not bad at all with these monster sized 315/40s. This thing is faaaaast.

Active Autowerke CF and Black Chrome tips for OEM mufflers. The car has their downpipes and equal length mid pipe as well.

Yes that was the one. I almost made an offer on it but my gut kept telling me to wait for a black one.

I was talking about my front splitter lol. Not my PPF. Polyurethane. Try and read a bit more before assuming maybe? I don’t care about a guy in a Facebook group. I care about the look of my car, that’s why I did matte.

Once again, I was talking about rock chips in my new lightweight performance front splitter. Understand that? Try and read more before jumping the gun, friend. You’ve done this a few times at this point now and it’s a tad annoying.

You love to hate man. I think he misunderstood I was talking about my splitter not the car. You should really worry about yourself and your car. Maybe you’ll save valuable time and drive it.

I was trying to give you advice on your car with your speciality paint on PPF, but you said you’re getting rid of it within 3 years in this forum. So that shows you’re not a true car guy really in my head. I couldn’t care about your car, so do you. You spreading nonsense on this talking about me is the reason this place gets toxic.

Get a life. Focus on you and your car. Since you got to this forum and started posting nonsense threads after ordering your pure frozen grey (without a carbon roof LOL) you’ve been nothing short of annoying and not helpful. Opposite of what we need here.

Apologize to everyone for having to read this nonsense, I’m just sick of this F’ing toad troll.

And with that, feel free to put all my posts on ignore too, so you don’t get so offended.
Glad I didn’t misgender you too, or you would’ve spilled your soy latte…
And I’m the defensive one? Lol. Alright bud. Just calling you out on your stupidity and you took it bad. Once again, talking about my splitter and not PPF. Keyboard warrior lol.

You could’ve said “I get it, but I was talking about the splitter”.
But no. Had to come up with a “you do it all the time”, which is, by definition, what a bitch does.

Take care. I am not a warrior. I don’t like conflict. I’m putting you on ignore and requested you do the same. You were the one offended by my post. Your response wasn’t measured the same way as my post to you was. I simply pointed something out, with no negative intent.

Enjoy your car, and take care. My recommendation still stands. Try to ignore more rather than be butt hurt about stuff.

End rant.
Misgender me? Wrong guy lol.

And ya, I had to call you out because I see you always creating conflict with others. And it’s F’ing annoying. All good though- I see how offended you got and it’s funny lol.

Convo end also over here.
