Alright, this isn"t the long-awaited BMW M2 CSL. It"s a lick of paint and some new wheels. But we thought you"d like to see it, as it"s a very famous colour scheme and one that likely inspires a few opinions.So the blue"n"gold we associate with Subaru Imprezas has been applied to the littlest M car, the punchy M2. If you need a reminder, its turbo straight-six sends 370bhp to the rear wheels, endowing the wee coupe with a 155mph top speed and 4.5sec 0-62mph time.The wheels are from Vossen specifically, 20in examples of the smoothly named VPS-314T from the Forged Precision Series while the paint appears to be BMW"s own Long Beach Blue. You"ve no doubt seen it on M2s before, but adding gold wheels suddenly gives the whole thing a Germanic Impreza 22B look. Which we rather like.It"s also a prime excuse to waste some more time on Vossen"s exhaustive online configurator.
