Both cars in my sig pic were mine. I know M cars and I know loud (open race exhaust). It's not a Lotus FFS, it's 3500lbs of chubby-ness. I'd have thought they could have dedicated some of those lbs to making the cabin somewhat quiet. If I could get anything other than an M car in a manual transmission, I probably would.
The M2 seemed much more noisy compared to other M cars I've been in, including my E90M3. Maybe i was expecting quieter given it was newer and M certainly doesn't mean what it used to mean. 
Seems I'm not alone when there's more than one thread dedicated to how noisy the M2 is inside.
And one more thing: you kids get off my lawn!  |
Fair. At 3450 you would think they would have added some sound deadening.
