M2 CS at 2020 Brussels Auto show (Misano Blue Metallic - black wheels - red calipers)
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com EDIT by Artemis: the M2 CS on display at the 2020 Brussels Auto Show appears not to feature the OEM M2 CS wheels. It features a set of 'Black Matt' 19" 763M M2 M Performance Parts wheels (with ///M Performance Parts logo embossed near the valve stems), rather than the OEM 19" 763M 'Jet Black' or 'Gold Matt' M2 CS wheels which do not feature the ///M Performance Parts logo embossed. It is the same car of the September 2019 M2 CS preview in Brussels (except for the removed OEM 19" 763M M2 CS 'Gold Matt' wheels). Updated with video: |

As pointed out in the past, the 19" (F) + 20" (R) 763M wheels on the M3 CS and M4 CS don't feature the ///M Performance Parts logo embossed and got an 'Orbit Grey' finish. We knew that the M2 CS is made available with the 19" (F+R) 763M wheels in 'Jet Black' or 'Gold Matt' finish and equally without the MPP logo embossed. The M2 CS on display at the Brussels Auto Show appears to feature a set of 'Black Matt' M2 MPP wheels with MPP logo embossed near the valve stems, rather than the (glossy) 'Jet Black' M2 CS wheels without MPP logo embossed. So, technically, the car on display in Brussels as we speak, is an M2 CS without the OEM M2 CS wheels. Weird. Compare with black 763M wheels on an M2 CS recently spotted by forum fellow MR. in the UK: jet black finish + no MPP logo embossed: Compare with 763M wheels on an M2 CS spotted at the LA Auto Show last November: gold matt finish + no MPP logo embossed: Compare with 763M wheels on an M4 CS: Orbit grey finish + no MPP logo embossed: M2 CS wheels (source: MY20 M2 Product Guide - Canada or here):

So whoever lusts after an M2 CS and is willing to shell out the cash: over here no 'waiting list', no 'dealer mark up' and as demand is low, for sure you can negotiate a discount. Imagine for a moment how M2 CS sales would have fared here with the same price-point but without the "limited edition" marketing trap. No bueno.

Definitely sounds like this is why they couldn't be sure how many were going to come to the US. US gets all the remaining build slots that aren't spoken for. I do hope they only build enough for those that want them.

Exactly my thoughts on it!
USA is the worldwide catch all for leftover allocations. So, I wonder if that means we get more than we are expecting from an allocation perspective? Maybe 500+ 🤔 |

The reality is that the m4cs pricing fiasco devalues the brand. You never want to be forced to discount premier product to move. They would be much better served to only build as many as are spoken for up to capacity limit.

So, apart from the red color stitching (instead of blue or orange) and "CS" logo embossed (instead of "///M" logo), M2 CS rear seats are similar to those of the M2 Competition (no upgrade compared to the M3 CS and M4 CS). M2 CS rear seats are only foldable 60/40. The M2 Competition features standard 60/40 foldable rear seats and optional 40/20/40 foldable rear seats with armrest (including cupholders) & load-through (at least the EURO-spec cars). M2 Competition featuring standard 60/40 foldable rear seats: M2 Competition featuring optional 40/20/40 foldable rear seats with armrest (including cupholders) & load-through: M2 CS: M4 CS (integrated headrests): M3 CS (integrated headrests):

What wheels do you guys think go better with the red calipers, gold or black? I would be getting BSM for the car color. Debating between gold or black Sport Cup 2 wheels.

The M2CS seats are the same as the M2C and the M2C seats are the same as the M235i. They all share the same back seats except stitching color.
Ya never know what will happen with sales after the first frenzy is over. Maybe at the EOP they discount it by 10k. Then the M2CS starts to look good from all angles. |

Most cars get discounted. I read on Rennlist that people get 5% discounts on newly ordered 911 carrera S custom orders. |

Otherwise I think black wheels are played out. I look at the images of cars with black wheels and just see voids of design where there should be art. Artemis had the right idea of going with the gun metalish color. Dark, but still preserves the design element. The gold wheels are hot, but at the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm sure they'd make a lot of people uncomfortable, but they look great with all the colors. |

A white car with black wheels is the race look. It's a choice. Blue with gold just reminds me of a Subaru. I just can't shake that image. I like the idea of gunmetal 763s unfortunately powder coating adds cost and potential issues if they are baked too hot.
