Comparing like configurations, the M2C is 111 lbs heavier than the M2.

It looks like the new M2 will make a big jump higher.

I guess competition is weight gain competition. I love how they add BS weight from engine cooling too. Crazy marketing! Chug the koolaid
"S55" just got itself an extra meaning: "Supplementary 55 kg".

G87 M2 will be the last non-hybrid M2.

Production is scheduled to end in March 2025.

Subsequently production of the facelift (LCI = "Life Cycle Impulse") till March 2029.

If plans don't change.

With the annual km I do I might pick up a new M2 just before ICE is banned over here…

A bit of a fictional comparison in a few areas? The M2C for example has a single aluminum and a single CF front brace. The OG/LCI has several steel braces.

The figure I quoted was with identical brake systems too.

Then, there's the cooling system...

I suppose. I can't say for sure.

Even with the extra weight of the cooling systems & so on, I would go with a comp over the OG but that's just me. I don't know how accurate the graph is but it's from a reliable source so I thought I'd share.

To each their own

I'm stuck in between wanting this or the G80. The G80 is a little too big for me, but part of me also doesn't want another coupe as my daily for the next 5-7 years. It's a tough call.

Maybe the new M2 will be large enough to give me all the size I'd need?

It's like a fine tailored suit

Definitely not as roomy as a sedan

But it's still extremely useable for your daily

Interior and boot space should be the same as the old 2 series. Check out a used m240 and a new one to compare. I think you gain some shoulder width but lose headroom in the rear.

Smaller interior in the rear specifically

Trunk space is basically same as F Series

I'd guess a full reveal in September/October to start the ordering process.

But we'll start seeing less and less cammo starting in June.

Ok awesome! Can't wait to see the whole car! After seeing the new 7 dash i'm way less skeptical about the look of the interior.

We have no definitive answer yet. I've heard a summer reveal but I'm sure there will be leaks leading up to that.

Subsequently production of the facelift (LCI = "Life Cycle Impulse") till March 2029.

If plans don't change.
Could the LCI be a hybrid, or is that too big a change to make mid-cycle?
