I think most of us loves the 1M a lot, But it not hard to see if you check engine wise how much better the M2 engine is then the 1M. The 1M will have its spot in history for a reason, It was done under the shortest amount of time and again it was a limited run witch added to the "WoW" factor of the car. The looks well that's i guess every person for them self.
For me when i take a look at the 1 M i see a legend steering at me but i can see it for what it is and meant for its time. But if i take a step back i can see the 1 Series behind it witch makes me glad but it just shows how little time they had to make the car. And those aggressive rear flares and front flares was more of a addon then sculpted to the body of the car it self. Example look at the picture bellow the 1M Flares looks like a addon rather then the M2s flares. You can see 1 M original body then comes added on flares for the wider shoes. Now this is subjective some people like this type of looks and some don't but in all honest opinion the M2 looks more worked on and refined then the 1M The hood of the 1M looks very weak in comparison to the M2 again subjective looks but M2 looks a lot more aggressive then the 1M. There is a thing called Graduation Goggles its the nostalgic feeling one has about a time of someone/something in their life when it is about to end, even if the time was completely miserable or great but if its great its even harder to let go ;-) Those who knows where this is from you are a legend. |

FWIW it looks almost exactly like the $900+ USD M Performance option for the M235i.
Except that the dashboard insert is CF instead of Alcantara and doesn't say "M Performance."

Yup I thought that. Saves a bit of ££ and looks quite nice but its no CF trim from the F8X.

I honestly hope everyone who gets one loves it to death. I'm sure it's going to be amazing. But at this price point, the Mustang GT350 has my eye a whole lot more than the M2, and that just feels 100% wrong to say or even mention. All this wait and I'm more likely to buy a Ford. What the shit?

I do like the M2, could see myself owning one but not as in replacing the 1M.
The 1M blew me and many others away and had that 'got to have' appeal, afraid the M2 just doesn't have the same sort of 'must have' about it for me, the 1M's 'old school' looks (blistered arches etc) and basic concept is what keeps my drive alive. The legacy started with the 1M, I hope the M2 continues carrying the flame. |
