I just hope everyone doesn't buy this car because of the stupid mirrors. That way I can easily pick one up in spring. And you know...drive the car.
E30 M3 mirrors were the same as the 325/318 mirrors. So yeah...there's that. |

Just who is this audience for the M2? I have a long history of M ownership and I am not at all interested with BMW's new gamesmanship with missing M elements. No S engine, no carbon fiber, no steering wheel buttons, no special seats, no M2 logos on the door sills.. BMW has left off all of the important small touches of M that have been so consistent for so many years. This car should be named after your other watered down marketing schemes and called a 2M or a replacement of the M235. I guess it's time for our family to turn to Porsche. You can mark our family down as greatly disappointed in the M2 and we have a 25 year uninterrupted history with BMW.

Just don't complain about the price of the M2 CSL when it has the CF roof, M buttons on steering, EDC, CCB, an M style mirror, weight reduction and specific M seats. Although I have to say that you cannot really go wrong choosing a Porsche. If you can afford it, I say do it.

Ah, so the decision was also environmental-driven: fear for a class action by bugs.

However for whatever reason they had I have a funny feeling the car just looked more refined without those M Mirrors. |

Me, I've owned many M and non M BMWs and many GT and non GT Porsches. I'm very happy to order a M2 and have a GT4 coming next month. These two cars are build to a price and they are both bargains compared to their bigger brothers. Don't know what everyone is whinging about really. |

Glad there are options, but I'm over the whole M bespoke mirror thing. Personally the original is the only way to go since if there were bespoke mirrors, it normally entail more than cover changes (bottom parts and shapes are also changed) Anything that just changes the cover will look after thought ish to me.

A tiny bit better maybe but still nothing I would put up with seeing every time I drive the car.
The OEM solution is a lot better as it is the black frame too and not just the backside. So one need to either do a complete mirror or not do anything at all if you ask me. |

Also it would be great if the rubber part would have a color closer to the rest of the mirror body, more black. (Tip, you could have cleaned it before making a photo of it ) MR |
