That M festival is coming up soon isn't it? Wonder if we'll get a small teaser there

It does seem like many people want M4-like performance at 2-series prices. What sense does that make from BMW's perspective?
I still think the M2 will outperform the 1M. The 2-series is just a better chassis to start with than the 1-series, other than with respect to weight. |

So the interior rumor would explain the limited color palette for the exterior.
This sounds like it's going to look great in any color combo really. I'm excited to hear/see more |

What do you think is gonna happen about an M2 LCI? The awesome lights on the 340i make me nervous, because the tail lights on the 2 would look fantastic with an update like that, and be even a greater improvement to the 2 compared to the improved looks of the 3 series with them. |

I am SO PUMPED. The fact that they're limiting options makes it feel even more special. BMW is pretty much telling us that they are building a direct 1M successor. A special car.

I agree - from the leaked details, it sounds like not only will colors be limited, but also the options list. I think this makes a ca. $50k base price all the more reasonable.

I've never owned an M car. I'm seeking an entry level into the brand. And since they're doing the M2 this way, I won't be buying Mustang GT and waiting for a next gen M. I think part of the reason BMW is building the M2 the way that they are is so that they can reel in people like me. And man I've taken the bait, hook line and sinker. |

What the M2 appears to be at this point, at least to me, is a reincarnation of the 1M which isn't a bad thing at all, but since I've already been there and done that I was hoping for a more tangible step forward (bespoke engine, CF roof, etc., etc.) That being said, like I keep repeating ad nauseam, it's all going to boil down to the feel of the wheel. If it puts a smile on my face then I'll put it in my garage |

Same here. There's a reason I've avoided black leather all these years, but it looks like I won't have a choice this time around. The M2 will get the standard 18% tinted windows like all my other cars. At least that'll help a little bit.

Sane here. I would prefer cloth Alcantara or leather cloth, leather Alcantara. 1M leather seats were one thing I always wished would've been cloth or Alcantara .
