It is €68.425,65 VAT excluded

@Lotus99 : see statement above. I will calculate a full option M2 tomorrow. Since it has less options (no upgraded brakes or seats), it will be cheaper of course. Base model with same options isn't that big of a difference however.

[MR.]

I have been calculating and I found out that the M2 LCI has become 4K EUR more expensive than when I bought my M2... I was like W T F... At least in my country.

I compared the similar spec of my M2 coupe from 2016 with the LCI currently in the configurator and the difference in price is massive... Never knew it went up so much over the last two years.

This means also that I am going to pay a lot more for the M2C then I expected. This is a price tag around 76K EUR and not 72K EUR as before including VAT and with similar spec!

Add this to the local currency that is also fucking me over, the dealer really has to give some decent discount else I might not take it. My M2C spec with the wheels, seats, DAB and brakes is 10K EUR more than my M2 Coupe...

Initially I expected that, but I thought it would because of the parts I added, not because the M2 LCI had a massive price hike! I am not really happy about this!

I plan on using the car as a daily driver and will probably not track it.

I have both, M2 seats vs M3 seats are a little hard to compare because the M3 driving position feels like you sit lower, but overall the base M2 seats are more comfortable to me. Not a deal breaker, but more comfortable. At first, I did not like them, but using the thigh extender and spending more time in them, I was going to order them on my M2C to save money.

Wonder if M4 seats in the M2C will give more headroom for taller drivers and helmets. Also will they give you the sense of sitting down in the car more.

Lotus99 : did some calculations today!

Current M2 full option: €74.330 VAT included (based on online calculator)
M2 Competition full option: €82.795 VAT included (based on offer from dealer)

On the Competition however are more available options ticked: M Sport seats, M Sport brakes upgrade, M Drivers package.

"Did you hear that? That's the BMW M twin powered turbo inline 6 clylinder engine working for you. So impressive, I love it."

Uhm, no. Barely heard anything.

Great video, I couldn't here much of the engine and it's funny how there have filmed in a warehouse for that louder sound.

"[370HP]... That was designated power by BMW M, meaning a modified BMW engine. The new model now shows designation 'BMW M Power'. This is now a BMW M developed engine optimized for the BMW M2 Competition"

Ooohh did they just say it has a real M engine now?

Definitely could be a factor - I feel as though I sit lower in the F80 than I do compared to my dad's M2. I am guessing the seats play some role, just not sure how much.

Sealed my spec today at the dealer and made a deal for the purchase based on the numbers provided above. I took black wheels and HS, added DAB radio, the seats and the brakes to the same package I had on the M2 Coupe.

Now waiting for the ordering window to open and the spec lands in the computer. I am happy with the deal and the sum to pay!

Are you referring to the 788M wheels in black? If so do you know if the finish is gloss, semi-gloss or matte?

No idea what it is yet... But I will not take the silver/black finish.

Scroll up or step the previous page for pricing details.

The previous page said the M sport seats were standard, the video just posted said they were optional. Is it a difference in markets?

Yes that is the most likely reason. There is a difference in standard spec, pricing, etc. depending on which market you're looking at. In this sense looking at European pricing and spec sheets is useful in that you can get a rough idea with what % the price has increased over the regular M2 in that country and then get an idea what it might be here in the US.

It is all guesswork until BMW NA releases the official pricing though.

The car looks good in the video.Are the rear seats still exactly the same as the current M2 rear seats,even if you order the M Sport Seats?I haven’t seen any pictures of the rear seats and they don’t show them in the video.

definitely not would be my answer. BMW never gussies up the rear seats.

A bit frustrating for me, the lady seems to know how to drive and great car, but why this video in a dark hall? No one will ever do this right? and not really buying in her speech ...
