Holding Out For Possible S55 Variant?

Who wants a bearing issue that plague the S55 when he N55 is near bullet proof?

I'm just waiting for my current lease to end. Oh and a sunroof.

I don't think they will do it and I hardly think they will do it to the M2CS.

Also on another note I heard they are going to put a S55 in the new m x3/x4 which doesn't sound too far off.

+1 for the sunroof although when my allocation comes up I'll get what I get and won't be upset!

"Hey BMW, here's $65K for a $50K car. Oh, I can't pick my colour or any options and I have to wait six months? Ah, that's ok, I just learn to like it."

What a bunch of SAPs.

This. Why offer the base M2 with the S55? What's the point of the M3/M4 then..

I dont know if i should envy the us buyers because of the small(ish) price difference between M2 and M4. In sweden the price difference is around 22000$ which leaves a lot of room for a s55 in the M2.

Btw, I'm surprised so many think the engine code is such a dealbreaker. I think the majority of the M car buyers dont care or dont know the engine code of their car. And it's not like those who know and care about the engine code all want the s55 either
