Agreed, ZB just doesn't do it for me on this car. I believe a lot of the hate this car gets online is because of ZB being the launch color. Voodoo is going to be amazing.

Funny here in LA it's mostly white or Brooklyn grey , with IomG 3rd on the list .

But I think Java green would look absolutely killer on the M2. Such a vibrant color it suits a smaller coupe better than the M3/4 . Less is more

When my lease is done I'll be getting a G87 either in JG or Voodoo blue no question. Leaning VB since I'm rocking Isle of Man currently, but I love my greens & the G8X platform wears it so well

Based on MY25 starting production 08/24, when should we expect an official announcement?

[Geighty7]

I hope they release a silver of some sort maybe Isle of Man green also. Individual would be sweet.

I wonder if it will get the new steering wheel with the flat bottom. That would be killer along with a nice dark purple.

I really hope Techno Violet is the Purple......but it is most likely the same Thundernight Metallic that is on the M240i. The new steering wheel I am not too excited about, it looks good.

Based on the M4 LCI reveal, it seems they are killing the heated steering wheel button with the new wheel, which is just what we need... more crap buried in menus

any speculation on updating bumper design or headlights?

really torn between ordering now or waiting until Aug

don't care about special colours, I always buy black

want 6MT so no CS or other variants

hmmmm

Well I would say if your are gonna get cf buckets, you will probably be waiting until the end of the year as it seems if you wait till August, unless you are in one of those states or dealers that gets a lot of allocations and you are at the top of the list. I am sure that didn’t answer your question. But the cf seems to delay the builds.

[Drowsy]

I'm salty that the M440i accent interior is better than my 24' M2. Damn, I want those red accents on my toronto red car . Hopefully they do get the same steering wheel and interior design.

yeah I'd get the CF buckets - I'm in Canada, maybe I'll chat with my dealer on lead times, if it's a long wait regardless probably makes more sense to hold out for the LCI? I'm once bitten twice shy after I got the F87 LCI and the next year they came out with the M2C

MY25 is not a facelift. Even if it were the chances they would alter the bumpers are low but do expect new headlights and taillights whenever the LCI comes, that's a given.

Yes that sucks but the next car is always faster and better. Unless you get the last version of that car. Anyway if you order now it might be a 2025 anyway. I ordered mine in March 2023 and just got it last week.

Wait so you had an allocation on March 2023 and just got the car? Why the long wait?

They kept telling me because of the carbon package that it kept being push back. Everybody at that dealership said it was the first M2 they saw with the bucket seats..

No facelift as the car was debuted in 2023 and they typically wait 4 years or so for a facelift. Expect yellow lights on the CS variant but no headlight changes that are major.

New trunk on the CS but that’s about it.

MY25 will likely have new colors and they will say it has a 20hp gain, but that’s just marketing as the 23’ and 24’ have been dynoed from factory at 477hp. BMW likes to under value at first so they can sell more later on without doing much R&D.

MY25 might get idrive 9 but that’s about it. I might be dead wrong in this idrive comment also lol.

If BMW says +20hp, it’s going to be +20hp+ over 23 and 24 models. They’ve under valued all output over all models and this will be no different.

I’ll hold my breath until they drag race a 23/24/25.

You think +20hp and ignoring all other variables is going to decide a drag race?

Didn’t I saw ignoring other variables

[Geighty7]

I just realized the MY25 will probably receive that new M4 interior with the new vents and new carbon trim (they got rid of the silver inlays) and probably will have a flat bottom steering wheel option also.
