Cant sweat over warranty. All my BMWs have been very solid cars, and required routine maintenance after warranty. And even something big once in a while is cheaper than constantly buying new cars.

A good e9X m3 is only getting harder to find and I feel prices are creeping up, especially the one owner or low mile cars. It's a pretty good deal right for what you get as far as performance an luxury. |

Do you plan to get the "extended warranty" or is that not worth it?

What sort of routine maintenance did you carry out to help with longevity?

Usually a quick trip to the dealer to replace the car with a newer model. Nothing crazy, really.

I initially leased my car for 4 years thinking I'd trade it in for a G80 M3 and do European delivery again, but now that they've cancelled that I think I'm gonna keep the M2C for a long time.

...and also now that the G80 is heavier and looks like it does.

I think the M2CS will most likely become the crown jewel of the newer semi-analog BMWs. The good news for M2C owners is that the M2C is a very close second that can run the M2CS tune. The older they get, the more condition and mileage will be a value factor. I think the higher price if the CS is just value insurance for M2C owners.
Long story short...the M2C is a keeper. |

I don't think you need to do anything. Personally I change the oil mid cycle (5000 miles) since I plan to keep mine.

I was actually thinking the same when I picked up the M2C, this could be a placeholder until the new M3 comes out, fast forward now & I rather not get the new M3. Mainly because for that price point + the looks I rather pick up a used low mileage 991.2 CS. Yes the new M3 has got decent more power, but I don't want to buy a car that has a look that grows on you.

I've only had two oil changes, run-in & first service at 18k, in the last two years. May do more frequent oil changes as you do. Thanks!

Every mile in an M2 is a fun mile, or should I say that every other car will feel like a boring POS. So just enjoy the hell out of your M2. At the 1 year mark, through COVID, and I'm at 7k ish miles already

The second car I'm looking for is a BMW E38 7 series or a MB W140/W123 or maybe an older mx5. Yes I know these are not reasonable daily cars.

I justified my upgrade from OG to M2C due to the fact that it will be a long term project/keeper car. I'm still due to replace my GT4, but I am not sure with what. For now, I will look forward to building my m2c and keeping my mind open to what will be the next garage companion.

I'm pretty sure the M2 even sounds like that when slamming the shifter into 3rd...or whatever.

Keeping it.
Just bought out the lease after 14mos because I like the car so much. Warranty? Going out the window this winter when I do all the mods. It's not the fastest car, or the best track car, or the prettiest car, but it is truly fun to drive and a practical DD (in the summer). |
