Real world LBB.

Saw these on another forum.

The last picture looks accurate to what I saw of LBB on the M2 at BMWNA. I like how dynamic the color is.

i agree

Big Tuna · 01-19-2016, 02:56 PM

Yep. It can look dark blue, to super saturated blue, to outright teal, depending on the lighting conditions.

As long as people are comfortable with that, go for the LBB.

Yup, when I saw it it looked most like the last picture. The green was even a little brighter.

Nothing new here after 752,056 pictures of the M2 in LBB.

JustChris · 01-19-2016, 03:15 PM

Those 18s kill it for me every time I see a picture with them. Last pic is good though.

I agree,that picture shows what LBB really looks like.

On the first picture, looking to the left wing, the more light, the more turquoise. Difficult color...

Did I understand correctly the temp indicator is a mixture from water and oil temp?

IMHO tte oil temp indicator should be visible through out the instrument cluster at all times, now it is hidden in a pop up menu, the rest is gone or vv

Just set it as your default onboard item?

Yes that can be done, but then the rest of the info display is gone.

Maybe that (or the oil temp indicator) can be swapped to the iDrive screen?

The way the Cayman GTS had those information on display is something BMW can learn from.

Oil temp
Water temp
Oil pressure

In a blink of an eye visible and detectable, just perfect!

The manual has it as a on-board item only.
What do you usually have there? I usually just leave it blank.

Mostly;

Outside temp
Driving range i.c. fuell capacity

For a sporty car as the M2 is positioned the oil temp should have earned his/her own permanent display IMHO

Unfortunately there is no room left with the current cluster so they had to do it this way. To be honest I never look at the temp anyway so I don't think it is a big issue.

I do !!!!

The 1M had a perfect display for oil temp

The Cayman GTS even better

The lack of cluster room was the reason I asked if info could be swapped to the iDrive screen

Just curious, when do you use it? At startup to see when the engine is ready for 'action' or during spirited driving etc?

No thanks;

I don`t like the "Christmas tree lighting"

I don`t like the alcantara feel ( very artificial, swaetty feel ) I had the alcantara steering wheel in my Cayman GTS, good Lord, never ever again, give me the leather version anytime.....
