Usually AW and BSM are a given.

Doesn’t mean that the G87 will be available in Alpine White.An early F87 test mule was seen in Melbourne Red.

True, but name one BMW that doesn't have AW offered as a no cost non-metallic color option. I patiently await your answer.

I said in my earlier post that AW should be one of the colors.I just find it strange that ynguldyn wouldn’t know all of the colors by now.The car is supposed to be shown 2 months from now.These 4 colors might be it.

I have been around the marque for nearly forty years and Alpine White has never been excluded. It has to much significance to the brand in regards to their racing history.

I would not be surprised at all if it leaks prior to the premier.

Agreed, it would make perfect sense to offer Alpine White. And possibly it will be made available.

But as some folks at the BMW design department seem to have stopped making BMW sense in the recent past (change for the sake of change), we cannot take things for granted anymore. If Wilhelm Hofmeister were still alive, he might have told us the same about some recent 'kink-less' designs.

I've recently come across voodoo blue and think this color would look amazing on the M2. Wish it were the special launch color

It was excluded from the i3.For some strange reason they changed the white color to Capparis White which is actually a very nice looking white color.Alpine White is very historic at BMW and should be a G87 color.We will find out soon.

Voodoo Blue is one of the colors I am considering as well.

You should also check out Riviera Blue and Mexico Blue also...both amazing blues. I was thinking a light colored interior...Silverstone or Ivory?

Friends have called my orange 330i a "quarter life crisis" color... can't wait to hear their feedback on a dakar yellow M2

If no individual, I'd go for zandvoort probably. I'm also hopeful for a Isle of man green but we'll see.

Looking at that rear bumper, you'd think it was an F22 if not for the quad pipes

No fun colors… of all models, the M2 would benefit from brighter colors the most.

Are you saying there could be more colors or this is it?
