Here's the brand new G87 M2 in Black Sapphire Metallic

Edwardsc1 · 10-12-2022, 12:54 PM

Looks so much better in black. That's gonna have such a presence on the road!

fanofbmwe46 · 10-12-2022, 12:55 PM

Can we see it in white?

Nowadays if you want a M car you gotta get it in black cuz the car is so jaw-droppingly ugly you just want the black to hide all the details.

Agreed - it also can look like it has a very subtle purple hue in certain lights as well. It's a dynamic color - not fun to polish / keep clean, but when it's washed, BSM is hard to beat.

Do we know for sure that the Tornado Red will be the color at the various auto shows that aren't too far off in the future?

EDIT - I am also wondering what other wheel options there will be. The ones in the launch pics are a bit busy for my taste.

ChrisM4 · 10-12-2022, 12:58 PM

BSM and TR are my favourites for the new M2 by far. (My G82 manual is BSM)

Yep. Hide the lines, only way to go.

Looks great in Black! Look forward to see what you do with it!

Huh?

Let's talk about wheels.

Basically this car would fit some very nice meat underneath.

20x10.5 305/R
19x9.5 285/F

21x11 305/315 R
20x10 285/295 F

True. Here is my BSM lip spoiler on Portimao Blue in direct sun

Looks like it has some blue and purple in it. Or is that some reflection?

@Jack@AUTOID - The car looks much more menacing & powerful in black.

We've also written our own little summary on the new BMW M2. You can read it here: https://autoid.co/blogs/news-release...-m2-uk-pricing

Looks like an m340i. Does not look similar to F87 M2. To me, F87 M2 is one of the best looking BMWs recently.
