Hahaha, totally agree! There was an M2C in Hockenheim Silver on display in Toronto last week and I didn’t realize it wasn’t white until someone pointed it out to me. They really should have called it Hockenheim White. Not being a fan of white cars myself, had I not seen the colour in person I would have been really disappointed on collection day. Thankfully I was able to change my order.

Haha

Although I haven't seen it in person, I imagine HS looks very similar to Lambo Balloon White. It has a pearlescent grayish flake that really accentuates a car's lines in direct sunlight. Beautiful color.

I get that some of you may not like it but it's a beautiful color. M2C buyers are very fortunate to have this color as an option IMO. Mineral Grey Metallic is a nice color and all but it's extremely generic color in this day and age where you see it on entry level cars and CUV's. At least HS stands out as a unique color option for your M2 and not a "me too color".

BMW really missed the mark on this one. IMHO Mineral Gray is a tad to dark, but with HS sort of replacing it, they really could not have done worse. Any other shade of grey, silver gray, silver would have been a winner. HS is really white pearl or champagne. If I want a light color, then I will stick to white on a M car, but white just doesn't show the curves enough, at least not in most light conditions. Thus Blue and Orange might be the only good choices now for the M2C
