Curious how rare each color is...

Does anyone have the 2023 G87 M2 productions numbers by color?

AW is the rarest.

Do you have any data to back that up or are you just trying to be funny?

I have no data, but I would agree that I’ve seen less people post about AW.

As a fan of wild speculation, in order of most popular to least, I'm going:

1. BGM
2. BSM
3. TR
4. ZB
5. AW last by a wide margin

Funny because half of the G87s I've seen have been ZB, two black, two grey, one white, and the only TR one I've seen is mine. That's just my population sample in Denver at least.

What about FPB (Frozen Portimao Blue)? Assuming it is in last place since I rarely see any pictures of this online. That is the color I ordered.

I’ve seen all the colors except FPB. I think / know I’ll have the only one in my city.

Since we're all working off of confirmation bias, FPB is hands down the most rare color because I've rarely ever seen them posted.

this was the first 5 OG colors offered. im willing to bet that FPB is dead last among the 5 OG colors plus 2 frozen colors.

FWIW, I spoke with my SA and he said Alpine White is the color that sells the most at their dealership (SoCal). This only further muddies the waters haha.

Adding to the thread with 100% unreliability based on my observations irl

I would say TR since I have seen:
2 BM
2 ZB
1 BG
1 AW
1 FPB

ZERO TR!

[apez]

Based on my real life observations BSM is the most popular:

BSM: 1 (mine lol)
All other colors: 0


Honestly, crazy I have yet to see a single other G87.

maybe one of our resident insiders will see all this wildly wrong information in this thread and feel the need to correct us :^)

I have done a thorough investigation of the forums, my numbers are highly accurate I assure you!

[TallGibbs]

A more accurate method may be simply counting the number of posts in each of the sticky posts for the dedicated car color 😀. FPB at least has some representation there albeit I think from only two cars.

[Laguna Seca Blue]

OP is asking specifically about 2023 numbers, correct? In that case wouldn’t ZB likely take first place? Seemed like most HEA cars were that color and they made up the the majority of deliveries that year. I’d be interested to see the actual numbers too if someone has access?

However, the thing I’d be most interested in is the take rate for cognac interiors in 2024. That would tell us if there was really low demand or whether it was a cost cutting measure by BMW to axe it in 2025.

Right?! Where are the insiders when we REALLY need them!

Yup, 2023, since that's the only full year of data. My money would be on ZB too (for most produced), purely based on my very statistically correct observations since the whole world revolves around me only.

Mine is FPB. I got plenty of thumbs up on the road so far. Someone even stopped my car asking what color the car had. Definitely one of the rarer color options I've seen so far

My in depth research reveals:
22%
18%
16%
14%
11%
9%
5%
3%
2%

I think people buy M2s in a color they like. Thats my deepest thought.......for today lol
