Ordered my M2 yesterday, then this happened…

jashton · Yesterday, 02:17 PM

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.

Sounds like voodoo blue was just meant to be for you. Congrats!

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.

TBH I can’t even tell the difference with and without shadowline. Enjoy it!

Congrats. Be sure to get those transport blocks removed!

That was my only request, I even had them save the blocks. They put them in the trunk haha.

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.

Thanks, already requested not to wash it or do anything besides remove the shipping blocks. They are leaving all the plastics on for me. I’ll be putting some scrap PPF on the car when I pick it up to protect from rock chips on the ride home too.

FYI your car was ordered by me last June for November delivery. I had a 24 M2. In October, November became January and I was less than happy with the dealership where I have bought many cars. I bought a 25 M4 comp instead from a different dealer and walked on this car when it came in.
My deal was 3k off you got a better deal than me and that ends my relationship with that dealership.
Good luck with the car.
