All of my cars are non-metallic white, because:

a. It doesn't fade. White is the anti-red.
b. It stays cooler in Floriduh, so the clear coat doesn't get burned off by the sun. I friend has black cars, and really takes car of them. But, the clear coat still burns after seven or eight years down here.
c. Old people can see me at night and in low-light daytime conditions (dawn, dusk, rain). I had a brown car in the 1970's and I was invisible. I invented daytime running lights (turning my headlight on all the time) just to not have any more wrecks with that car.
d. Body shops stand a better chance of matching white and non-metallic.
e. Non-metallic colors shine, where metallic colors only luster. (But, the luster makes swirls less visible.)
f. I like white.
g. I like savings the money ($550).

I've walked out of showrooms because a car didn't come in non-metallic white. That was before the Interweb's, though. With the Interwebs, I don't have to waste my time going in the showrooms in the first place. If BMW wants me to buy and M4 (or a 911) instead, drop Alpine Weiss III (300) and that will do it. I'm not alone. For a while both BMW and M-B dropped non-metallic white from their big cars. They brought it back, though.

I vote for the white. Looks great....easy to keep looking clean....doesn't show dirt....

I never pay extra for paint colors either.

Black Sand Metallic for me. I think the M2 overall is a tad too aggressive for me. The function over form front fangs, the out of place rear reflectors, the slightly bulbous shape. Those all flow more gracefully in a slimming black number. Probably would black out the rear reflectors anyway, but I think they don't look horrible on black.

Autoputzer · Jan 17, 2016

Yeah, modern M's have a "Look at me... please" theme. Also, I think that black plastic "diffuser" on the back bumper is a down side. The M5's rear bumper valance are more conservative.

I already placed my order for Long Beach Blue with the 6MT.I think the M2 looks best in LBB because it really shows the aggressive design of the car.I like Alpine White but it hides the awesome design of the fender flares on the car.I am getting there first M2 and it is supposed to be February production,with delivery in April.

This is an incredible looking pic of an M2 in Long Beach Blue.

I only buy cars that have a color, so blue is the only choice.

Autoputzer · Jan 19, 2016

Black is the absence of color. White is the combination of all colors.

black with racing stripes

When my lease is up next year, I am thinking AW or LBB. I actually hope they would add SAKHIR ORANGE.

second to that!

LBB but cant go wrong with any of the other colors especially AW

Bimmerhawk · Feb 22, 2016

It all depends on what LBB really is. Is it this lustrous light blue I see in some photos that looks so awesome or the pukey Aqua color I see in others? Until I see LBB in person, mineral grey for me. At least I know what that actually looks like.

LycanNyc · Feb 22, 2016

Seen it in person, and pictures def dn't make justice!

mr_clueless · Feb 22, 2016

Can't believe AW didn't win hands down.

LycanNyc · Feb 22, 2016

AW looks stunning on the M2 and every BMW, its no a brainer color =)

chihaohsia · Feb 22, 2016

Bring something exciting!!! Like red, yellow, purple!!!

eflatminor · Feb 22, 2016

Love the combination of a gray exterior and a rich chocolate brown interior. Classy!

hans007 · Feb 25, 2016

i'm voting white, because my current car is estoril blue, and i'm not getting 2 blue cars in a row.

that said, as someone else said the $550, easy color matching for the inevitable rock chips and front bumper scrapes etc are also added benefits

Shades · Feb 25, 2016

I decided to change my M2 order to Alpine White after I went to BMW Canada this week and took a look at both colors,outside in the parking lot.

LBB in pictures looks like Estoril Blue but it is actually a turquoise color,when you see it outside in the natural sunlight.I just wouldn't be happy with the color.

The Alpine White M2 looked fantastic.

Here are some pics.

Road&MTN_Biker · Feb 29, 2016

Changing the subject a bit, I love my coral red interior in my 228, but dislike the black leather in my 428. It's like being a cave compared to the CR 228! So I am hoping for some other interior choices by the time I order my LBB M2.

GoBlue5 · Apr 6, 2016

I reserved my spot on the wait list for an M2...likely April production. Trying to decide if I want to pony up the $5k extra and get an individual color. I've had 3 E92s in Le Mans Blue and absolutely love the color. For me no other blue compares, but not sure a color is something I really value at $5k. I'm buying this time and not leasing so I'm at least giving thought to it, but very hard to justify that much money for a color.

pagefault · Apr 6, 2016

I like the Long Beach Blue well enough, but I really wish there were options on the interior. I love the two-tone BMW interiors, and I'm not thrilled about the carbon fiber trim.
