I mean, while I'm looking forward to an M2, and it's likely the next car we'll own...
Saying, without any support, that, say, a 350 whp M235 with an LSD and a set of coilovers wouldn't/couldn't outperform it...is...well..ridiculous.
A 135 with 50 more whp, a LSD and coilovers will out lap a 1M. And that's not taking anything away from the 1M. For some reason, you think the same can't be said for the M2?
Do tell!
And please, come back with something other than "BMW engineers are superior than the aftermarket", as that's a completely irrelevant statement.
Stop making definitive performance claims about a car which has never even been tested. Sound fair? |
Wow...you seem to be more of an authority than BMW. Maybe M should consult with you before unveiling the M2?
BTW...here's some prior Dinan genius for you. $47k in "upgrades" and the car is damn near exactly the same as stock performance measurements. Bravo!

If you think the boffins at Dinan can whip up an M235i that is better than an M2, then by all means you should put your money where your mouth is.
However, before you do, here is another gem for you. Happy reading!
