I also expect approx a $54K base with DCT extra. Most cars will likely be approaching or over $60K with options.
There are at least 2 different demographics who want this car: 1. Those who want the least-expensive full-on (please let's not debate the engine again) M car. 2. Those who want this size M car regardless of the price (I'm in this camp). Demographic #1 will be shunted to the M235i (soon to be M240i) if the M2 is too expensive or allotment too limited. Demographic #2 will be shunted to an F80 or F82 if the M2 is too limited or too much of a hassle to buy (or to another brand; usually Mercedes, Audi or Porsche). I'm expecting to pay > $60K with some options. If the allocation circus/mark-ups are too much take on principle alone I'll pick up an F80 or a used 997.2 GTS.

That certainly wouldn't the deciding factor for me, although it would be part of the overall analysis.

M4/3 DCT adds £3k here in the UK. Standard M2 has 6MT and DCT optional surely.

In Germany, M-DCT Drivelogic is a EUR3,900 option for the M3/M4. I guess that it will be a little less for the M2 (option 2MK), but not much.

I meant base prices. If the folks that think the M2 base will be north of 55K, say 56K, that's about a 12% price difference on a base M3. Compared to about a 49% price difference between an M3 and M5.

I'm an enthusiast and am looking at the M2. Without a premium upgrade in interior from the M235 (Merino Leather for example) , it is unlikely I will spend the >10k difference to start. ymmv

Are you a leather enthusiast or something? This doesn't sound like the car for you as you said.

Awesomeness! It made sense to me they were going to price it low since it didn't have so many things like S engine CF roof etc.
I should dream of lottery numbers.

A Quick Lease Estimation Based On Actual Lease Parameters But Guesses.
Each state will have different state tax so all prices are before taxes. European Delivery used because its most likely where you will get the best deal. Optioned at = $60,000 including D&H ED Sale Price = $55,000 (Not impossible) If Residual = 58% ($34,800) 59% ($35,400) 60% ($36,000) If Base Money Factor = 0.0016 (ED) 7 MSDs 0.00007 = 0.00049 Adjusted Money Factor = 0.00111 (2.664%) ??k miles X 36 months Lease Price if 58% residual = $661 + Tax Lease Price if 59% residual = $644 + Tax Lease Price if 60% residual = $628 + Tax Not bad right? Your thoughts?

Draw your own conclusions on the US price.
My 2016 M235i US MSRP, $52,120. with destination German website my M235i configuration no tax, converted to dollars, $55,473. German website M2 with my configuration no tax, converted to dollars, $63,155. German M235i to M2 price difference, $7,682. My US M235i price of $52,120. + $7,682 M2 adjustment Projected M2 US price with my configuration= $59,802. I hope that makes sense :-) Who knows what the marketing department will decide on US pricing. I used a fully optioned car because the base cars in the US come heavily optioned compared to German models making a base price difficult to compare. If any of that is true then a more powerful engine + bigger wheels and tires + flared fenders and beefed up wider suspension + sport differential + M prestige might be worth the $7,682., if you want all of those things.

The $59,800 M2 price guestimate was for my almost fully loaded M235i configuration but applied to an M2...just to be clear. Last edited by AlpsRider; 10-30-2015 at 10:20 AM.. |
