I currently live in the San Francisco Bay Area in California so i'm not sure if that makes things different or not.

As people who have owned more BMW's than i have (my first is a 2020 230i i started leasing in 2019), would you guys recommend i wait, or get the 2021 M2 C. I know theres no news on the new 2 series however just based on your own previous experience with BMW, have you noticed a pretty big increase between M models? I know the Competition is a step up from the M2 and with this news i'm not sure if i should wait for the new M2 C which i assume would come out in...2025? I dont know if i want to wait till i'm 40 to jump into an M2 competition and i dont know enough about BMW to know if the wait would be worth it.

IMHO, looking at the current X3/X4 M and M Comp should provide some insight to possible HP/TRQ numbers for the next gen M2/M2C but styling will be a total crap shoot might be great or might not. One thing I have learned is that even some styling changes that initially I did not like tend to grow on me, others not so much.

Best advice, see it, like it, buy it.
