Gross. |
If the new M2 stays the same weight or gets a little lighter, I'd be ok with a beefed up B58. BMW needs an M car that isn't all about straight line acceleration competing with Camaros. It would be nice if the M2 stayed as their still fast, but less powered, more handling focused M car in the lineup. |
Camaros turn real good now, you just can't see out of them. |
True, maybe a bad example. But in general, the Camaro is still a big, heavy car. Let the M3 do battle with it. BMW should keep the M2 as a smaller, more agile car, so as to differentiate it more.
