So when BMW did the press release back in July there was a bunch of hi-res images of a Mineral White 220i (non M Sport).
Images of the 220i have been used by BMW interchangeably with the NA Spec 230i. Press Release: https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/usa/a...2-series-coupe We also have the now infamous Red 230i from the BMW USA 2 Series Gallery: https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/2-se...e/gallery.html Finally we have a Thundernight from Carscoops: https://www.carscoops.com/2021/07/ne...ets-of-munich/ If I have missed some good 220i / 230i images, please post.

19 inch wheels as the 783 wheels in the real life pictures look impressive on the 2 series. The 797M should visually fill out equally nice. Both has a design where the spokes looks to extend all the way to the tire making the wheel diameter look bigger than it is. Very cool.

It is a 220D, but provides a good look at Portimao Blue and M Sport trim

230i M Sport
Hoping to see more pix soon as deliveries roll in this month!
Well, one delivery is occurring this month, namely Monday. Yeah, mine and that car here. I have to say, as others have too, it looks much better "in person." The rocker trip is glossy, not matte as the build-n-price depicts. Pix coming next week... Last edited by Dinosoar; 11-19-2021 at 04:55 PM.. |

Can't believe I'm saying but I actually kind of like the chrome trim on the 230, it's different. The 230 does, in certain ways, look better than the M240, but the base wheels do not do it any favors. A 230 with a nice set of wheels would be a great looking car.
