A lot of praise for the retuned MDM..... But what does this mean for those of us in North America? Last I checked BMW programmed the North America cars to have a much more restrictive MDM. Will that be the case with the M2C as well? If so these Euro car reviews are not really accurate for those on the other side of the pond.

However, you don’t have that spongy vacuum cleaner thing in your exhaust that I suspect we will be getting. So there’s at least that! Swings and roundabouts. |

Gave my opinion...or are we not allowed to do that anymore? Seems quite a few agree btw.
You could have followed your own advice and ignored my post. Yet you didn't. Bit of a hypocrite don't you think? (psst, that's rhetorical) |

I don't see why not. All US spec M2/M3/M4 have had exhaust valves so far. Valves are the main reason why these cars are super quiet in Comfort mode.

I have a M135I and test drove an M2. The OG M2 in regular mode sounds only a bit quieter than my M135i in sport mode with a downpipe and a tune. It could be because of the ASD but its not too quiet.

Apologize if this is a repeat but I didn't see it after a quick search.
https://practicalmotoring.com.au/car...tition-review/ "All the while the M2 Competition is telling you what it’s up to, and reacting to your inputs ultra-faithfully. It’s an utter gem. For comparison, within a couple of hours of driving the M2 Competition on the road I took an M4 CS, a stripped out but still roadgoing M4, down the same route. The more expensive car felt unpredictable at the back end and short of feel at the front, so I drove it more slowly. And it had ridiculous tyre noise." |
