"That blue", was his response, and "fuck", was mine. I literally thought in my head that I could get it wrapped if I absolutely hated it. The m2cs was alpine white, and $90k. A no from the get go for me. So I claimed it... and nervously waited for delivery.

I was stunned when I saw it in person. A mile down the road, driving toward me (to fill the tank), and I saw it instantly. A beautiful, different blue than any I'd seen. I usually have black, silver, or off white cars, so I was kinda taken aback. Then they pulled it in and parked it for me to go get. Less taken aback, still stunned.

In the year I've had it (delivered 4/10/23), I have had more compliments on this car, and this paint than any of my other bimmers. All were modded and very pretty. 3 were m's. Do not get ZB if you're not comfortable with people stopping you at lights, taking pics, approaching you, chatting to you, or otherwise paying attention. Before the windows were tinted I felt like a fish in a bowl at a very busy aquarium.

So yeah, I love it a lot. It's actually pretty amazing. Also. I would always have chosen black first. Extra attention or not.

Your response to the color question made me laugh out loud LOL

I honestly hated it in all the "sneak preview" pics, and the color in theory, too. Baby blue? Nahhh. But then I saw it. And I loved it. Everyone else I encounter does too. Life is weird lol

Same with me. When the pics were leaked I hated the color and didn’t like the car. Then went to a dealership this past February that had it on their lot. I went to see it with my wife and my opinion on the car and color chaged instantly. I paid a deposit and am on the wait list.

A kind of hesitant to get the color and kind of not at the same time if that makes sense? My past cars have been silver, grey, and now black. Basically colors that blend in with any other car you see on the road. I want something different (ZB) but wonder if it is too loud of a color. My back up is Alpine White.

I was actually lucky enough to attend the world release in Melbourne a few years ago and it was the blue.

I knew then it was going to happen.

Roll forward a couple of years to a couple of weeks ago I got it.

Nothing wrong with white.

As an aside my 2024 BMW 230ix is in Mineral White. While it has not come in for as many favorable comments as the M2 it has received a few. (And not one negative comment.)

Yeah, white is a very clean color that, in my opinion, looks great. Also if wanting to add black or carbon fiber exterior bits makes white pop. Def not a bad color.

ZB out getting some sun after the gym grocery shopping next door.

I have had the ZB for a month now and it was the colour I wanted since I laid my eyes on it and the colour I would pick again.

A bit of a head turner for everyone and I don’t mind a little compliment- but not the reason I bought I car for.

Took it out to the wineries here in Victoria, Australia and it was adding plenty of balance to the colour imo.
