Still, in BMW M lineup, M2 does not beat anything. Not designed to, not developed to, and not priced to. All this talk about m2 superiority, even in this or that category, is purely skewed and subjective hopes from 2-series fans. I am sure it is a fun car but it is not better than anything from M. It is an intro M.

You say it's all 2 series fans, but no. Motor trend, Jalopnik, C&D, all made it very clear that when it comes to DRIVING enjoyment, the M2 is preferred by them over, yes, your car. You're the one who is going to need to understand that people have different opinions than you. And many non 2 series fan boys, proffesionals, even, are saying they like the M2 better. You're allowed to like your car better. But don't come in here swigning your F80 dick saying that it's factually a better car to drive. It's not. Maybe it's a better car to you, but to many the M2 is better. You have to open your eyes and understand that what's the best car to you doesn't mean it's the best car to others. Enjoy your car and stop being defensive. Live with the fact that a lot of people like the M2 more. It shouldn't bother you if you put your money where your comment is. Haha.

I am not saying m2 is a bad car either. My original post was about people saying how m2 is better than m3/4. It is not. M2 is good and better than many other cars, like 235, but M2 is not better than other M cars. This is true if we talk facts and not seat of your pants impression which depends on what you had for breakfast. About the magazines, articles or some track run timings - you make me laugh. This forum is plagued with skewed and biased takes on what journalist and magazine say in their reviews. When BMW wins, it is a good and truthful journalist, but when a MB or some other junk wins, we say how biased and paid that journalist is. Am I biased? No I m not. If I did not have kids, I would consider M2. However, I would probably get m4 b/c it is a better car, and if I had the budget, I would get M6 b/c m6 is even better car. But if I had the budget for m6 I would take the p-car, 911 that

We're saying that to a lot of people it is better where it matters most to them, personally. So in their eyes, it's the better car.

You can call the journalists "biased" and paid by BMW but I don't think BMW is all that thrilled of some of them shitting on their flagship series for the M2. |

Here is the real simple logic for you: BETTER means more Expensive. Things are expensive because they are better or because they are rare. M3/4 is better because BMW invested more into R&D, it delivers more features, more high tech stuff, and obviously creates more value which in turn cost more. How can anyone argue with that? I guess you can but you do not use your head, we know that.... p.s. "You must really like the taste of your own foot!" really? is this how you talk in real life or just on the internet?

My reply was simple - it is not possible by definition. Then the bunch of 2-series fans started attacking me what I said. If M2 is better to someone b/c of some fact (cost, size, etc.), they should say that. When someone says M2 is better than M3, they imply it in general. And what I said was that in general this is not possible and it is simply against any real world facts, even math...

I also disagree on adding more "value". You can add more complexity for more cost, but that doesn't always add more "value", it could just add more "cost"unnecessarily for some people. Remember that some things are subjective, rather than objective. I get your point, but not everyone will be agreeable to it. I actually love the F80 M3, but felt the M2 had more "value" at a lower cost. Just my opinion. |

While I respect opinions of all people who make videos on youtube or pro journalists, there is a huge difference between spending your hard earned money on something vs. discussing something (in a video/article). Let me give an example. Lets say you are given $80K with one condition. The condition is you must enter BMW dealership and purchase an M car, but you cannot borrow any money or keep in your pocket. Your choice is obviously limited to M2, M3, or M4. So which car would you pick? Still M2? Why? Is M2 for $80K better to u b/c someone said so? Is M2 for $80K better to u b/c it did better by 0.003 seconds on some track which is better suited for cars with shorter wheelbase? Do you race? If you drag race, which car is better for you, M2 or M3/4? So, all situation arguing aside, in general M3/4 is better than M2.

The argument around the M2 vs the M3 for me isn't about the msrp, the materials or the aesthetics, It's about the feeling and satisfaction the car can provide. It's not complicated. Those business classes can get you. |

M2 has 4-inch shorter wheelbase (a +) but it is higher and has a has a metal roof. Anyhow, short wheelbase is not always the best quality. In general, I am not sure where there is advantage of M2 exactly. The FUN factor is based on what? My 3er e90 325 had better steering, was easily flickable and FUN to drive but it was not better than my M. anyway, I respect all positions and opinions but we must be objective when comparing things. If we compare by tangible or not so factor, it must be stated or threads like get derailed as this one did.
