That test car looked like he was bouncing off the bump stops while he was driving it.

Everything I would expect and why I stopped subscribing to his channel. He tries hard, but totally misses. From the comment above, yes, the comp is riding like shit. Well, it's on coilovers (he doesn't comment, probably doesn't even realize). It has Toyo R888 tires, which ride much differently than MPSS tires. AND it has fucking rollcage, which will also stiffen the chassis. Car does not look like a pleasant road car. Comparing exhaust sounds on two cars with modded exhausts, that makes sense. Misses that the comp has LED lights. Seats are from the M4, but still have the M2 alignment issue. Difference in power between them is noticeable, but might be negligible. The OG with exhaust may very well also have a tune. Doesn't even notice the huge difference in steering feel, even driving the cars back to back. No comments on M dynamic mode, but he doesn't push either car anyway. He had a chance, but this was a joke. |

So many in inaccuracies:
1) Its not Red stitching, but Orange! 2) BMW changed the engine for emissions, not cost! I have to stop....

When he mentions a tune on the N55 engine I thought it was decently funny cause doesn't the same thing go for the M2 Competition that you can just tune it LMFAO you can get way more power out of the S55 with a tune as well so it's a bit rediculous to be like get the normal M2 and tune it will be as powerful as a M2 Competition, like yes a modded car will be more powerful than a faster stock car, until you mod the faster stock car LMFAO.

He keeps harping on the engine sound of the M2C but to my ears it sounds pretty good?

Leave VV alone, he's just parroting what prominent reviews already stated..
Better car, exhaust with an acquired taste.. However, mistaking orange stitching for red (color blind?) and not factoring coilovers, roll cage & whatever else I know he failed to mention in the M2C, made him lose credibility in my book.. We have to accept that no one is going to say anything new about the M2C that is not already known.. Its a car, not an abyss.. At this point, the "reviews" are becoming redundant.. But it's nice to see the vehicle on showcase. |

This guy's content always sucks. The upside is if I lose my job, I know I can make a youtube channel at least as good as this guy. |

I remember that from his early videos.. He obviously failed to mention that, amongst many other things.. It's all about showcasing clickbait with him, not really substance.. |

I'm surprised the video titles wasn't "SMOKING A BRAND NEW M2 COMPETITION IN MY BEATER M2"

If I were to pay 52k for a used M2, a new M2C is a no brainer.
The only thing I agree with him on the M2C is the udder like ball-sack they have on the exhaust. Saw it in person and it looks horrendous. That said, it might explain why it sounds so much better than the M4. That ball sack design may have something to do with it
