One thing I can say is that the more I drive around my, "base" M2, the more I enjoy it and the less desire I have for a more specialized version. It ticks virtually all boxes for me, so if I make a leap for some special version it will likely just be an ego or speculative thing in all honesty.

Sorry yes you're right. Anyways, to each his own but a M2 with the S55, possibly reduced weight, full M suspension is what I'm after.

I can see the comments now if the M2 uses the B58. " It's just an overpriced m240i with a tune " Last edited by Nine Lives; 10-28-2016 at 01:57 AM.. |

I'd be pretty upset if I put my name down for M2 CSL and didn't get selected. So not even gonna bother... I just hope BMW replaces N55 with B58 by the time my lease is up.

My coworker has an M3 and I absolutely hate it, from day 1 before the M2 ever existed. It sounds horrible, is not balanced at all and its a handful on the street. Not too fun to drive. In an M2 with short wheelbase, it would absolutely be too much engine. Having driven mine for a while now, I see it. The M2 as-is sounds wonderful, real musical out the back. It has plenty of torque for anything needed on the street. The N55 in the car is actually really trick, and bulletproof for track time. Not normal N55 at all. And the price for what you get is incredible. Theres room to get the car to 390 crank HP that BMW could easily do for a facelift. I dont think this version M2 sees a B58. Maybe the next full update in 2020. Will there be a S55 CS with a higher price tag? Sure, possibly. But it will not be a better street car overall IMHO. |
