F87LUV take note! I could never afford to own a used Porsche over a new BMW so My comment always is.. GO get the Porsche ( you'll be back! ) I used to have hopes of owning a P car.. but since the Cayman GT4 wasn't really available..... and Especially after seeing the thread on the average profit of a new Porsche is $17K ..vs average profit of $5K on a new BMW... i'll only be buying a new Porsche with " someone else's money".. I'm good... Last edited by M3 Adjuster; 04-10-2017 at 04:16 PM.. |

Someday, I hope to have a third garage bay and the ability to have a non-DD car parked there. One that's just for thrashing and doesn't need to be super comfortable or practical. Whether a 981, GT4, or M2 CS is parked there remains to be seen. F87LUV - you will enjoy all the time you spend in a P-car, should you get one...it's something everyone should try, if it's not a crazy financial burden.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say M2 CS will have a manual option, while GTS is DCT only.

We knew that when the lease residuals were under 50%. They had this planned from day one.

And besides, the track is really the only place that you can reliably and safely use everything that the M2 comes with from BMW. I'm still at a loss to understand how many people line up power, brake, suspension mods, etc., as soon as they buy something like an M2. It's a car that comes from BMW way more capable than virtually any purchaser is (regardless of what you really believe about your driving capabilities). So, rather than spend thousands on a tune to gain some moderate HP, why not spend it on track time, so you can learn to drive it closer to the cars' capabilities? -rb |

oh wait.. I see you have an M2 on order... you better CANCEL that and wait for the M2 ZCP because the M4 ZCP is getting WAY better reviews than the M4 ! Last edited by M3 Adjuster; 04-10-2017 at 08:53 PM.. |

I personally know of two M4 GTS owners that track their vehicles .. There are at least 3-4 M4 GTS owners using and they are in these forums.(not being the two that I know) and use theirs as a daily driver and or track vehicle. PS... I am the OWNER of a Limited production vehicle. Only 740 made. and my car isn't in a museum either.. I got my 1M by reading the tea leaves and not just sitting and waiting for " official confirmation from BMW like GimmeanM Last edited by M3 Adjuster; 04-10-2017 at 08:58 PM.. |

Know anything about the CS being limited or unlimited? A one year production or multi-year production until 2020?
