See my answer above - remote control for M2 M Perfoemance Exhaust. That one is for a MINI but M2 one will be similar.

What is tha? An M2 for ants? I thought we'd see the thing in the flesh..

BGR · 11-03-2015, 05:05 PM

They (BMW) certainly are milking the M2 aren't they. Instead of letting the car speak for itself, they are covering it with makeup in hopes it will draw more attention.

TselaG80 · 11-03-2015, 05:07 PM

So many items kinda of confused.

Why display m235i parts? Why display the standard carbon fiber parts like the center trim and door grips?

And that exhaust on display isn't the exhaust for the m2 looks completely different from the first initial picture of the m performance exhaust

So they are covering up with makeup on the M4 as well? That was also at Sema. What are you talking about? Sounds like you are trying to find some fault with the M2.

Yeineken · 11-03-2015, 05:16 PM

Interesting you have to buy cross drilled rotors and a suspension for a M car. More fabulous ///Marketing.

I'm fine with interior and cosmetics. But those seem practical for an M to come with standard.

Hazey82 · 11-03-2015, 05:29 PM

Any info on Performance seats?

maddoc · 11-03-2015, 05:40 PM

Where's the rear diffuser ?

People that want to lower their car get aftermarket coils or coilovers correct?

This is BMW's version if you want your car lowered.

Do the coilovers come with Adaptive M or are they manually adjustable only?

LeifW · 11-03-2015, 05:54 PM

So why are the brake discs "dimpled" versus drilled?

The BMW M2 will officially have its World Premiere at the NAIAS in January 2016. It won't be in LA either.

Razouk · 11-03-2015, 06:06 PM

Wow so that means no reviews by journalists before that? That's a huge BOOOO! Considering some of us will be ordering by then...

Dog Face Pony Soldier · 11-03-2015, 06:26 PM

Those M Performance rotors can't be intended for the M2/M3/M4. They are a downgrade from stock.

Not until 2016. January is closer to the April 2016 introduction.

Progressive springs. No thank you.

Hazey82 · 11-03-2015, 07:10 PM

This whole M2 release, marketing, M performance is a total joke! How are we supposed to make a decision on anything prior to placing official orders.
Options for M performance seats are a final piece for me and I need to know before this weekend if they are an option to replace the lame so called sport seats as that's when I'm ordering my new car I've waited far to long.
This M2 is such a failure IMO.
