Start a poll. Do you your M2 yet? The only available answer should be YES.

Well, not tinted yet, and the pictures are not touched up at all (other than obscuring license plate). But, here goes, for your viewing pleasure.

Yeah, I liked that. Did you see the color matched M2 logo? I like how that turned out too.

I just took a second look as I thought it was blacked out at first. It's almost like you deleted everything after the tri-stripe, very unique.

So, I have to ask....How does the M2 compare to the E92 and F82? I originally was going to get an E92 M3, however I wanted something new and was "scared" away by the Rod Bearing issue. The F82 was slightly out of my price range, but I'd still like to know you thoughts...

There's gotta be significantly more than 20; I believe there's at least 4-5 in PA alone.

I could write a book about that. F82 is more brutal, in terms of power. E92 is ... Special, but doesn't pull as hard from the line. The F87 is an awesome balance between the two and I like that's smaller.

Red light racer: M4
Long track car: E92
Short track or DD: M2

Easily 5 in PA, and probably more.

Thanks, that makes sense. My CA took me for a ride in his F80 (last spring before the M2 came out) and you are right about brutal, it threw me back in my seat and told him "if my M2 can do 80% of that, I'd be pretty happy!"

Five in PA as in Pennsylvania?

In the township where I live (only about 50,000 people) there are already five as well(M2) at the moment. 3 blue ones(incl mine), 1 white and 1 MG.

Of which 2 (me and Advevo) are forummembers afaik.

But all of the 5 M2 owners know eachother (semi) personally...

Cheers

You know how all the reviews say it's ridiculously easy to drive quickly on a track? Pretty much nailed it. Great balance, rotates beautifully. Steering feel is much better than the F22, but it's no E36 M3 in that department.

Sessions were 25 minutes, temps about 80F. No overheating or limp-home issues. Brakes were awesome.
