I cannot answer your question re. M2 vs M2C because I only have experience of the former. But with that being said, it doesn't cost a lot to really bring down the noise level inside the M2, both OG and Competition.

There is a separate thread about sound deadening, and I've just ordered the last few parts that are missing from the M2 models when compared to other 2 series models. The parts that make the biggest difference by far, are the foam seals that go in front of the doors, and the metal side panels that clip in and block the massive hole in the side of the car exposing the rear wheel arch and fender outer skin.
