Great find and thanks to the OP.

HS looks really gray/silver in the sun. I LOVE this color.

I thought I read the 437M wheels weren't an option on the C. Hmmm.

I think they are for certain markets - I don't think the US/Canada get the option, unfortunately.

Good video. You can tell that it doesn't look metallic unless it reflects in the sun. And compared to the white car next to it, it definitely looks gray. Would be very curious to see a silver car next to one. The "super" orange looks kinda nice actually.
Thanks for the videos.

Ahhhh...ok, well then I guess I don't know. I am pretty sure the 437s are NOT an option for the US - I thought I remembered reading the same for Canada but I might be mistaken.

So how is that Canada already has the M2 C and for the US they aren't even being built yet? Or why are there no reviews if the cars are overseas already?

I kind of agree. There is probably a reason no one has ever made a color like this. Not sure light gray and metallic are a good mix. Obviously need to see it in person to say for sure, but from what I have seen so far, it is not exciting at all.

I think both colors look great in these videos. This might be one of best representations of HS I've seen so far. Even Sunset Orange almost looks like Sakhir Orange kinda like the time we saw it on the new M850i that was revealed last week or so.

HS for the first time made me reconsider my decision. Still don't know 100% what color I want

Sunset Orange would look great on an SAV like the X6, or even a pickup truck, but it just isn't a good color for a sports car.

Caved in about a week ago, HS with black 788M it is. Not thinking about it anymore, it was ruining my life, lol. Will decide if it needs a CF spoiler once I get the car.

P.S. Regardless of what color anyone gets, paint the muffler flat black!
