Porsche Owners...?
I guess there are many M2 owners who also own Porsche on the side. I'm wondering what kind of Porsche you guys own I guess. Anyone????

My M2 is still on order, but I have a 2015 Carrera S with the 7-speed manual, Sport Design package and some of the performance goodies. Before that, I had a 2014 Cayman S. Both of these are/were a true blast to drive. You really feel connected to the car.

Am not a porsche guy, but am sure it's the ultimate dream car for most german car enthusiast. I know couple of Porsche fanatic and NO other sport car but porsche entered their garage for 20 years! So my question is:
What's the reason you bought an M2 ? |

I am waiting for my 2018 M2 allocation. Currently drive a 2015 GT3 with carbon buckets and a 9+ year old 335XI coupe. I've owned a couple E46 M2s. On my second GT3 and waiting for the 2018 allocation. Previously owned a 997.1 turbo and a few 997S varieties. For me, and many like me, once you go GT3 or real GT Porsche, you don't back unless you're adding to the stable. I feel as though Im driving a truck after driving my GT3. Porsche really nails it, imo. I am really excited about the M2 and feel BMW has lost their way a little in recent years. I hope the M2 is indication of they are returning to their roots.

So I wanted something for the interim that I could still take to the track and have some fun so I bought it as a fill-in car. But, it is proving to be more fun than I expected. It's a great city car. Better than a 991 IHMO for bombing city streets. Indeed, since I got it 2 weeks ago, I have hardly driven any of my other cars. Novelty factor hasn't worn off yet I guess. And BTW, yesterday I took a blast out to Dusseldorf to visit Classic Remise. Hit the speed limiter at 250kph! |

Not a bit, but I have other more practical cars. My favorite at the moment for puttering around town is a mint 1992 Volvo 240 DL sedan with 85k miles. The track is where it is at and the GT4 is perfect for that - the M2 is just a hooligan load of fun. Love them both, just each has its own personality.
