Does anyone know what are the colors that will be available for this car?
Individual paint available or not?

Does the Mexico plant offer individual for the G20? I'm not sure, as that would be the answer.

Hopefully way better than last time. Prior M2 had sparse color options.

I recall reading individual colours were going to be made available to G87

I'm still irrationally holding out hope for X-Drive.

ynguldyn post indeed says "RWD - of course" but it doesn't say RWD only.

Let a guy dream!

This should lead to some horrible renders.

Well was considering going from my g80 to a g87 wanted to pick up carbon buckets and x drive this time around lol guess we'll have to wait and see on the official release and production information. Anyone see plans from bmw on a worldwide reveal?

I wonder if there will be a CS model that comes in a manual. This could be the last manual M2 ever made.

Not saying it's not possible but I'm just not seeing it. Headlight vets are simply not a thing in the automotive world. What purpose would they serve? If it's a piece of black plastic then I will be interested to see if they can make it look good because it's highly unconventional.

Take a look at the 6 series LCI. I would anticipate a similar approach.

I think we will get something good, hopefully the 473hp version of the engine with the buckets, carbon roof, carbon hood, same chassis tuning genius of the last set of CS models.

I hope they don't make it a limited model, let as many people who want one get one so there are enough in the marketplace.

That's more subtle. This would be a large black rectangle that would kind of stick out. I hope it's not the case as if they are going to utilize the same headlights I would prefer they mold the bumper cover around them accordingly.

Whether one is more subtle than the other remains to be seen. Either way, its the same concept.

Audi does it.

Yup I posted that two posts down after I saw a new render with the vents. Should have known BMW bean counters would never make M2-only headlights.

Have the render to share?

I'm sorry, but the lights look stupid with that extra black portion. Looks like a round peg in a square hole. I really hope BMW either sculpts the bumper around the lights, or gives us a light that fills the opening (ideally double angle eyes).

I'm also not a fan of all the black shiny plastic in the lower rocker region, and really hope that it will be body colored instead.

Besides those two things the shape is growing on me and I really hope BMW does not mess this one up.

Not widely adopted but they do exist. Would be a great opportunity for a brake cooling line

Yeah I'm hoping those lower bumper parts are body painted as well. It'd add to the aggressive look.

The dealer I bought my X3 from gave me first spot for an order on the G87. I cannot wait!

I told my GM six months ago I wanted the first one. Being in charge of the inventory also helps assure that.

Pumped!
