First real life look: M2 Competition w/ M Performance Parts (thx to Misha Charoudin)
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com here we have one of the first decent live photos of the BMW M2 Competition with M Performance parts. As you can see, it is Misha Charoudin who shared them with me. He is now at APEX at the Ring and will walk back to the M Performance center to make a lot more photos. Next to this, it also means that we will have this car at the N24 this weekend! I am there with Tim aka Shmee150 after BMW invited us and I will definitely make a whole series of photos laying underneath the car, etc... Questions; please ask them to me know and I will investigate! Yes I know about the roof at factory/dealer installation and we want pricing, but anything else let me know. If you want to meet up at the Ring, than please let me know. Special thanks to Misha for the photos! MR Bonus photo: |

That front end looks phenomenal from that angle. White is looking good too.
Can you ask if the hood and boot will be available only via factory order or if we can also get those retroactively? And on pricing, whether the M Performance parts pricing will be made available together with the car pricing or not. Decisions to be made whether to continue with a July allocation or wait until November to get the CF parts. |

Also curious to know:
1). Can we get the hood painted completely in body color (aka, no exposed CF on the bulge section)? 2). If we get the boot, does it have to say M Performance on it, and does it automatically delete the M2 badge as well? 3). Can or will all of the M performance parts be installed by the dealer? Cough, including the roof, cough... 4). When will the normal reviews of the M2C start? 5). We have heard US pricing will be announced May 15th - is that correct?

2. Not allowed I think until press drives. I will see what they say, but don't think that will happen. 3. Same as on M2, nothing new 4. Wooow... Unknown, not something not to answer now. That requires test fitting by a third party person. BMW will never answer that since they don't offer 18 inch for this car. They will say "no idea". 5. Interesting, I will see what they say. 6. They will never be able to answer that. European market people, not U.S. Wait another weak and you know. 7. Pics of rear seats I already made. They are on this forum. Seats are the same as the M2. 8. Good question, I will ask but also here... European market people, they don't know much about the U.S. market. 9. Interesting question! Not sure anyone will know, but let's see if there is a product specialist on hand. I am at Garching on Monday so I can ask there as well MR |

Also I am not aware you could get 18 inch on a M2. Only 19 as far as I am aware. What are M4 owners doing? They must have bigger discs when they have ceramics? MR |

Not to crush the hope for 18's with 2NH brake package. But it isn't happening.
Compare the caliper clearance of the M4 carbon ceramics to M2C 2NH. Clearance is identical(very little...talking millimeters). |
