Exactly, if I was at BMWCCA’s M car Days the last thing I would do is waste my time on M3s or M4s as they simply don't interest me.

Sometimes it feels like 8-yr old kids discussing their bicycle colors at the playground. Maybe only the M3 and M4 survive in the subjective "real M car" eco-system approach of some. For some, even only the E30 M3 is worthy getting the ///M badge. As someone said: "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." Otherwise said, each individual should be allowed to pursue his/her strengths. In addition, a weakness in some area should not induce feelings of debilitating inferiority. Check the value you got for the money paid, what purpose you mainly use your car for (daily driver? track? mountains? mix?) and how much fun it provides when you do those things.

I wanted something somewhat track focused, yet smaller, faster, and lighter than my e90 m3. I also wanted a 6mt, 300+ hp/torque, rwd or awd and excellent driving characteristics. The m2 fit the bill, unlike most other vehicles out there. There just aren't many vehicles out there like the m2. If I was ok with auto trannies I would have gotten an rs3 or an s5. I get alot of pleasure from driving this car, real M or not, and that is what is important about the m2, not BMW M owner prestige BS.

There will be a day in the future where someone will say that anything without an internal combustion engine isn't a "real M" car, as electric M cars start to hit the streets. That day is coming....

I bought my M2 to impress me. Too bad if other don’t appreciate how special this car is.

I've had an 2 M3's, and an M5. The first M2 didn't impress me much just because I didn't think the engine was very good. But now with the competition and CS... well, I'll be getting a CS, lol.

I haven't posted on here in awhile. Since time has passed, I've seen more M2C's on the road. They look real good, and only those who own or really know these cars can tell the difference between the OG and competition M2.
From my personal experience, I've got thumbs up and respect from owners of the larger M cars. I think people on forums and car reviewers are not like the average person. I've tried to explain to people the differences between my OG M2 and the M2C and they could care less. They just like the way it looks. |
