Chaps, have you noticed the M2 gets a lot of attention from bikers?

I've noticed many twisting their heads to get a good look lol - quite a few like to just follow (city, b-roads), I guess to hear the exhaust maybe.

It gets a lot of attention nearly all positive. I think it is one of those cars pictures just don't do it justice you have to see it in the metal and when you do you have to do a double take. I have loads of people who want to walk around it at petrol stations etc most just love how blown out the front and rear arches are compared to a 2 series. Unanimous view is it looks really special and sporty without being ott.

So in the 5 days on owning the car, had more appreciation for it than all my other cars combined. Guess in Edinburgh I have only seen 2 others on the road one LBB and Alpine white, my dealer said most are sold and go down south.

I was parked up waiting on the missus coming out a shop and had a good number of photos and thumbs up, with one lad asking me to rev the engine to hear the exhaust. Was outside halfords getting some car freshners and had Type R and RS driver both pull up along side and start conversations.

having not really experienced this before so much in the last cars its quite refreshing and ejoying the additional car chat with other passionate car fans.

Yup

Went on a blast with some biker mates few months ago - they could hear my car above their bikes!!

Get's lots of attention when sparkling clean, not so much when dirty. (mineral grey)
