Henna is full on orange in person. Like the General Lee orange from Dukes of Hazzard.

I may consider TR for first go around. Or maybe BG.

As of this very moment I am going with TR. Subject to change to possibly Alpine White.

I definitely see it. The M2's side view is like a modern-day E30 M3.
The boxy fender flares are almost the same.

E30 M3 is a timeless classic.
Definitely polar opposites of the spectrum here from BMW.

So let's wait 30-40 years before even discuss the timelessness of G87. |

Now just imagine if BMW decided to reproduce the E30 M3 body shape but with say a B58 engine, modern interior and suspension. It would be absolute insanity.
For me, the jury is still out on the G87 body shape. It just looks.. unfinished - too many rough edges.

BTW lets stop this E30 M3 compare. The E30 M3 was a homologated race car that we where lucky to get. BMW using it more for marketing at this point. |
