Uh-oh. I just read that Hyundai poached another M executive from BMW. I wonder if that will affect the value of the M2?
OMG - What was he working on for the M2 Competition? And more importantly, was he finished? Will any critical parts be missing? I’m keeping my M2 for sure! |

This video may seem slightly off-topic - it's Mat Watson learning how to drift - but watch when he figures it all out near the end and he pulls off a sweet drift in the M2. See how much fun he's having and how perfectly the car handles for him. When he nails it, you'd think he just lost his virginity.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_B3RqLK7vw I think this is why "worthless" isn't a word that will be associated with the N55 M2 anytime soon. |

Well the M4 didn't sure when they released the GTS and they sold them hand over fist for way over MSRP.... till peeps got smart. just say'n
Point is some peeps will buy anything at any cost just to have it. Will the N55 take a hit, maybe a small one but at such low numbers I think us N55'rs are going to be just fine |

Apparently I've hit a sensitive nerve with some, to become so defensive about their cars ... it's just a car, relax
The question was not very well understood. I'm keeping my M2, I enjoy it, will have big fun with it this weekend in the Eifel and NS, and I don't give a f*ck about M mirrors. That being out of the way, I'll try to go in to the 'discussion'... |

Also, I don't agree with the comparison M4 - M4 GTS... this model is not being added to the line up, it replaces the current model middle in it's life cycle...

I agree with some that price and production numbers will dictate the price difference in the near future. I'm also not interested in what the car will be worth in 20 years, as I will not keep it that long. I just think that BMW did the wrong thing here, Competition should be living next to the M2 "base" and the CS (if it's ever going to be released)...

A good comparison (but not 100%) would be also the E36... when I was shopping for a track beater around 2008-2009, 286hp version could be had for 5-6k euro, while the 321 ones were more than double the price. Today, prices are comparable for both models, but I'm not interested in this long run, just wonder what it will do in the short term.

Which crap? Can you be more specific? Or are you not articulate enough? And why drag Honda into this? Anyway, I think your schoolbus is leaving, so you should hurry out the door
