Took some new photos the other day when my friend wanted to try my car, so instead of starting a new thread I added them here... Enjoy!

Here are some quick photos right after I picked the car up after a Ceramic Pro treatment. I have a full shoot scheduled after my wheels arrive...

Looks great; the performance spoiler is a nice touch on AW.

Is it me, or does it look slightly lower than stock?

Car has MP coilovers. I guess you haven't read previous posts about this car? LOL

wigit · 04-22-2016, 03:05 PM

Favourite white as not over done with the carbon and ride height is perfect for me

I guess I haven't read all the M2 threads on the forum.

Robban · 04-22-2016, 03:27 PM

Looks nice with the Mperformance coilovers!

NiceGuyEddie · 04-22-2016, 03:56 PM

Looks fantastic. What wheel/tire are you going with?

twboy1999 · 04-22-2016, 03:59 PM

Nine Lives · 04-22-2016, 04:02 PM

Lovely,

I'm still torn between the white and grey...decisions,decisions.

AlexCirci · 04-22-2016, 04:14 PM

Those coilovers really make this car sit perfect! Very nice!

Car looks fantastic, ride height is spot on.

ConR · 04-23-2016, 02:30 AM

Agreed. Perfect ride height!

Pol · 04-23-2016, 02:56 AM

Looks perfect, congrats again! And indeed,with the discreet carbon touch, she looks so well-finished.
Today I will pick up mine from "the beautician" after a Gyeon Quartz coating treatment + some X-Pel placements.

Robin_NL · 04-23-2016, 02:58 AM

Subtle. Best AW M2 I've seen so far.Wow.

Cheers
Robin

F1zbo · 04-23-2016, 03:25 AM

Wow!
Looks absoloutely fantastic with the lowering and rear spoiler.
I am normally not a huge fan of AW but you car looks great ith the subtle changes.

Pol · 04-23-2016, 04:00 AM

As a daily drivers car I experience the OEM suspension as already hard enough. I wonder if the MP coilovers make it even stiffer as I suppose that MP coilers = stiffer springs. Am I right?
As many of our roads over here are in a worrying state, I suppose you will turn in even more comfort.

The springs are 40% stiffer. I haven't driven a stock M2 but I love the ride even if it is quite hard it is still just fine for me as a daily driver. I haven't tried to soften it yet either, if I recall correct it is at mid settings front and rear or something like that in BMWs recommended setup.
