M Mirrors are a huge characteristic of an M car. Call me picky but the M mirrors on my E90 are one of my favorite attributes.
Still an aggressive nimble car just feel the M division could've done them, wouldn't have made much of a difference on the price. |

No hard feelings, I didn't wanna upset you or gain some fame or whatever I saw the pic on a german message board and haven't seen a thread here (though I didn't check the other threads to see if it was already posted within somewhere) Last edited by Nightfall; 10-13-2015 at 08:24 AM.. |

If it is true a it no M mirrors it is a big disappointment for me.
Many people have said its not a deal breaker etc.. We knew there was no cf roof, no M specific engine, no M seats, and now we learn no M mirrors??? Ultimately if you add up everything it starts to matter!! Especially since the 1M had them!! There is no reason at all for the M2 not to get the mirrors. I think if bmw m does this it's a huge punch in the gut for fellow enthusiasts since it's just a simple thing to add. Let's hope this render is off. I'm little disappointed at the render and I am number 1 on the dealer list for one. Last edited by chmura; 10-13-2015 at 08:29 AM.. |

So from that article:
- 3300 lbs - Lift reduced by 35% - Extra water cooler - 0-60 in 4.5 with 6MT, 4.3 with DCT - More expensive than the Audi RS3

But not sure if the article's got everything right. They seem wrong about the consumption and CO2. Auto BMW's have always been more ecological/economical than manual boxes last few years. Same goes for the M3/M4 so I guess they have their figures mixed up. Honestly, if you mix up something like that I don't think you can believe every word they say. This is basic information, easy to verify, so why get it wrong? They're in the ballpark, but sure ain't hitting a homerun. |

How can you possibly believe that this car is not faster than the M235?? Not only are the 0-60 times quoted by bmw lower, but it has more power/more tq and is lighter, with more tire.......

What are you adding up? You can't add things up that this car was never going to get (i.e. things that 1M the 1M didn't get either). You wouldn't trade the mirrors for the motor upgrades? You'd prefer it didn't get the M3/4 crank/pistons/IC, the closed deck block, but rather, that it got mirrors an the M235 engine + tune? Just bolt on aftermarket mirrors of your choice. Who gives a crap? Deciding not to purchase a $50-60k car because of side mirrors...only on a BMW forum. Because again, the 1M got the mirrors, and no motor upgrades at all.
