The exhaust sound is dull, and in turns of performance it lapped 7.52 at Nurburgring a mere 6 seconds faster the the original M2, its combined MPG is 19 versus 22 for the original M2.In dealing with its value both cars probably will not be collectables but it terms of retaining its value which would most people pick? The fun car that closer to the old school M cars or the detuned M4 selling as the new and improved M2?:

Someone is butthurt about the m2c. So ur saying og m2 is the only fun car and m2c is not fun because it has a m4 engine ? Lol |
I get the same impression about a lot of OGM2 owners, some of which are self admittedly "salty" about the M2C. There's an entire thread about it actually.
The OP trying to bash the M2C as having a "de-tuned M4 Engine" as if that was some derogatory way of tearing down the M2C to make himself feel better about his car.
I've said it plenty but these constant, stupid battles between the OG M2 owners and M2C owners attempting to validate their self worth is ridiculous. Just enjoy the damn car you own, if you love it, that's what matters. If you think yours is better and it makes you happy, that's what matters. However, if you're going to come on a public forum and try to get people to align with your subjective truth, then you're sadly mistaken. The M2C is the objectively better car. Guess what? The M2CS will be better still. And then all of our cars will be the old generation in 3 years and we'll be having discussions about how the F87 is the "last true M car" just like every generation before that.
This argument/discussion is so tired.
We all knew our cars would be devalued and obsolete with each new year thereafter, give it a rest already. There's no way your older car will hold its value better than a newer version. Unless it's the exception to the rule which it already isn't, then I'm sorry to burst your bubble.
