I will wait another 6 months before i pull the trigger.
Facts:
Hockenheim M4>M2 by 0.2 sec
Ring M4>M2 6 secs slower
Dragrace M4=M2?, M4 is known to have bad traction.
Interior M4>M2
Sound M2>M4, just respect for the M2 sound 
(maybe because the M division did not deliver the M4 with a proper M performance exhaust, as they should.)
I have now JB4 stage 2, ER DP's, KW coilovers and Akrapovic exhaust, so still enjoying the M4.
To all the new M2 owners: drive safe and enjoy! I'm honestly jealous. |
I don't see why BMW would advertise M2 being better than M4. We all know that the M2 production numbers will be nowhere near M3 and M4 numbers combined. BMW implying M2 better than M4 would be shooting itself. I don't think BMW would ever want to hurt M3/4 sales by introducing M2. I think what they are trying to do is the exact opposite: Showing people that not everyone will be able to get their hands on an M2 so that they can incline towards the big brothers M3 and M4. Long story short, I don't think BMW encourages/supports/sponsors the reviews that position M2 being a better car than M4.
