New BMW M2 Competition photos released
I found some new BMW M2 Competition photos, which were released on Facebook a few hours ago...
You can clearly see that the new color has a tendency of becoming a color like an undercoat which you put on anything before applying your final paint color. It is so annoying that HS is so freaking boring sometimes. I am really only taking it as a great undercoat for a future wrap, because it is plain boring under normal sunlight. MR |

Absolutely love this colour, this has made my decision easy! I was toying with Sunburst Orange Metallic, but Hockenheim Silver is definitely the choice for me!

It looks more "light blue" on those pictures compared to the pictures of the press release where HS was almost white...

Nice, but it looks to much like primer. Just like what the OP suggested.

I can absolutely say that because I agree with you. I also think this is a boring, ugly color. However.. I do understand that MANY people like some of these " cement" / primer color grays. Some people foam at the mouth over Audi " Nardo grey" and Ferrari " Telesto Grigio" paint. I think it looks horrible. Again.. a personal problem .. Personally.. the car in the photos.. when viewed from the side with the wheels.. looks like a 228 with OEM (not OE upgrade) wheels to me.. These photos do give one the full impression of the fact that there are three separate radiators involved for cooling.. It also shows how absolutely ugly and horrid the BMW active driving assistant radar/lidar is with how much space it takes up in the front lower air valance. I do not like that there is no distinction between the kidney grilles on the M2 Comp.. The M5 grille in black would look better than what is on the M2 Comp.

Took the words right out of my mouth primer with a layer clear coat! To each their own, I think it looks horrible in that color.
