Another one on a track. Grilles look good, IMO.

Maybe one day photographers will learn to not ruin their shots with excessive Photoshop effects

Thought I had written this color off, but it looks pretty good here. Black wheels go better with HS, here are some quick renders.

seis-speed · 05-23-2018, 11:47 PM

Tag I agree, I like it in these shots. HS looks better with the new black wheels. Thanks for getting pics to show up...

Karmic Man · 05-23-2018, 11:54 PM

The body contour definitely looks more sculptured in HS

These pictures look too artistic - just bad. Almost look fake.

3tekcorps · 05-24-2018, 08:10 AM

It's instagram. All the photos there have been run through a "photoshop" filter.

The images of the M2C on bmwusa look similar. They are going for an artistic look.

I agree. Nothing to see here.

Even with processing you can see the car is not as close to AW as some of us thought. That is why I shared it.

*Just let me put on some body armor and flame retardant suit...*

HS looks like a Lexus shade of pearl white.

Poochie · 05-24-2018, 10:39 AM

HS reminds me of "Mineral White" - Alpine White with a touch of metallic flakes..

I haven't seen Pearl White since the 90s. The new metallic white colors don't have rainbows in them like Pearl.

It’s darker than mineral white. It is a grey version of moonstone metallic.

pz619 · 05-24-2018, 12:36 PM

I need to see this in person. Right now it looks way to close to AW. Don't want to make the stereotypical mineral grey comment, but I really wish they had that color available.

akkando · 05-24-2018, 12:46 PM

I feel like if I traded up to an M2C in HS I would miss the LBB color pretty quick. Well I don't have to worry about it right now.

But... will you get tired of LBB 5 years later?

I don't think so, sometimes I just wish I was more under the radar, but then other times I just look out at the sea of white, black, and gray cars and am so happy I have something interesting.

I'm starting to shop for a car as well (X1/X2 for my mom) and I'm like... mannnnnn, how many shades of white/black/grey does BMW have?
