New Zandvoort Blue M2 Photos

spuntyb · 11-17-2022, 04:28 PM

No amount of photos will make this blue look good on this car. Maybe in person, as is often the case. I've come to love plenty of colors that way. These photos are just hilarious to me though.

Cos270 · 11-17-2022, 04:29 PM

Stop trying to make this color happen, please.

Germanauto · 11-17-2022, 04:45 PM

Horrid color. Really shows off how awkward and bad the grille treatment is. There's no trim surround, so weird.

This is Mr Lego's car.

Did you just assume this color's gender?

We need pics of car in white. That's what I'm leaning towards.

Its least offensive views are at night with low lighting. Dare I say it actually looks interesting in that setting.

But absolutely heinous looking thing in broad daylight

Ummm, is there a grill trim on the G80/82?

It really feels like BMW is gaslighting us here

XxThe_RemedyXx · 11-17-2022, 05:49 PM

Why?!?!

curtdragon · 11-17-2022, 05:51 PM

This is like the brz special edition. I haven't seen one on the street 😆😆

This is just not a manly color for a muscular manly car.

ChrisM4 · 11-17-2022, 05:58 PM

In photos this colour just looks unfinished to me…like light blue primer. I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person though!

Tag · 11-17-2022, 06:20 PM

Don't have to see it IRL to know I wouldn't like it. I like red and blue but hate pink and baby blue.

*bimmervibe · 11-17-2022, 06:50 PM

I still don't get all this hate. I think it's a unique color and in this photos looks pretty good.

For sure not for anyone that will usually get a black or grey car.

AGAV13 · 11-17-2022, 07:15 PM

ZB on the M2 looks best from a distance

I ordered ZB and can't wait!
It's the most exclusive and unique color currently available for the M2.

gurusaint · 11-17-2022, 08:21 PM

That's just a terrible color. Does not complement the car. Might work on a Buick or Ford Taurus but not this.

I think Yas Marina Blue would've been good. It's a darker hue. This just looks too pasty and powder-like

But I agree I would still rather have this over bland black/white/silver. Flashy colors >> predictable colors every time in my book.

anitasanger · 11-17-2022, 08:59 PM

Please maintain the negative hype and ad nauseam histrionics. I want my Zb to be a collectible in 10 years!

Repeat after me: Blue sucks. Pastels are for limp dicks. Real men drive black and gray cars. So gross. Ali Baba, wish.com, Hyundai. It's for ladies.

So feminine.

YKIGI · 11-17-2022, 09:02 PM

Haven’t disliked something this much since the first time I saw an Aztek

Reminds me of Ford's Baby Blue of the 70's.

wufpak · 11-18-2022, 06:14 AM

Alright yes this color is pretty ugly, but so are all these flat colors that seem to be trendy these days. Everyone loves that primer gray nonsense, so now we get this.

That being said, the most offensive thing here isn't even the color, it's that front bumper. If the Supra ever gets an S58 variant, I'd easily go that route over this thing.
