It's not going to be perfect but is meant to give you an idea. It's scaled as accurately as possible. Look at the front wheel as the side profile pic (3rd pic) switches between each car.

This could be one of the really cool colors in person.

Same on German website.

I think you have to pick the track tires with the silver wheels and the wheels will stay with the carbon pack.

I would prefer that ZB look like pic 1 versus pic 2.

This color is growing on me... but like YMB on the F80, it'll be one I appreciate but would probably not spec.

Some quick looks at Zandvoort Blue M2 at the Motorclassica in Australia:

Starting around 0:35 mark

Here too. I got a white car now, want something fun but not too extroverted. Black is a nightmare to keep clean and conceals the body lines, BG is meh to me, too safe. For me it's between Zandvoort Blue or Toronto Red. I want to see both in person before pulling the trigger.

Looks like color has some purple or violet. Hard to capture in video or pictures as it appears vastly different depending on lighting and image taking skill.

With a carbon fiber splitter and side mirror caps, spacers and a slight lowering, this thing will look like a shark looking for prey. Excited to see it in person, but who knows when it will appear in Miami.

I have been keen on Zandvoort Blue since the beginning, it is close to Porsche Gulf Blue which I have been a fan of. I hope there is a ZB M2 at the Performance Center this weekend.

You can have sliver wheels with the track seats however when selecting the track seats you get the track package so you can only get sliver wheels with the track tyres.

No front plate is a must, it looks much better.

A close up look at the M2 in Zandvoort Blue. Check out video description for specs.

Why can’t a single place put it out in the actual sun? Why is everywhere sitting it out in the shades or worst possible light environments? We need direct sunlight at all angles.

carjoy · 10-16-2022, 12:06 PM

Another walk-around video of ZB M2, showing car partially in daylight.

Another from BMWBlog, shows color nicely.

That was my big complaint. At the end of the day they moved it to run on the track. Check out this posting:

The thing is ZB photographs totally different than what you were standing right in front of. I, like many, stared on and off at this exact car for several hours yesterday and not one photo that I took looked anything like what I was staring at.
