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. |
What they did with the M2 is take a M235i body and remove all the sound deadening, to make it appear more sporty.
The louder a car sounds, the faster you perceive it is traveling. That's the cheap
trick they used in the M2, which, as a result, equates added road noise.
There are threads where some members added back the sound deadening that's was removed to tone it down a bit.
