Let's see, C/D's M2C 0-130mph is 15.9 seconds.

Sport Auto 0-200km/h (0-124mph) is 15.4.

Auto Bild 0-200km/h is 14.9.

So C/D's 0-130mph of 15.9 sounded reasonable.


Now look at European OG M2s.

C/D OG M2 0-130mph is 19.1 seconds.

Auto Bild 0-200km/h (0-124mph) 15 seconds.

Auto Bild (Another test) 0-200km/h 15.5 seconds.

Sport Auto 0-200km/h 16 seconds.

It just seems strange to me 0-124mph takes around 15~16 seconds but 0-130mph is 19.1? That's why I said unless the acceleration after 200km/h drops off a cliff, otherwise the C/D number just seems extra slow.

I don't own M2s so nothing for me to denial about (I drive M5 and X5M), I was merely curious about such big gap between C/D's test of OG M2 and M2C and saw contradictions between the US and Europe tests.
