Spotting an M2 or M2C is like seeing a mythical unicorn in the wild.

I feel like there's more hype than substance when it comes to this car but this is coming from a non-BMW fanboy or car enthusiast.
My guess is that while it may be the best selling M Car in the world (said in Clarkson's voice, of course), it is not the best selling M Car in the US. Kind of like the Pacific NW's obsession with Subarus. If you just based your guesses about which cars are the best selling cars in the world based on what you see in the Portland Metro, you'd end up guessing that Subaru sells as many cars as Toyota.
