Dude sorry not meaning to be rude to you specifically....but BMW ruled out different mirrors to the 2 series due to cost!


....and you think it's even remotely possible they will throw away the perfectly fine 2 series vert mechanics and develop a bespoke folding hardtop?

They're just someones drawings, of course; but, Scott26 put one of these up on another site along with a positive comment about the chances of seeing one "...earlier than expected...." I've been posting them around so the vert lovers stay positive.

If you want an M2 Cabrio then you need to be heard and at this time no one can hear you...
AS I SAID NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU...

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

That may mean "the top is down at speed and can't hear because of the tire, wind, music and road noise!"

Really?

No one is listening because you are not shouting that you want an M2 Cabrio.
Therefore they can't hear you! THEY CANNOT HEAR YOU!

For Corinne: "On a Serpentine Road, With the Top Down" - about letting go of an old Alfa (or hanging on to it) and nostalgia.

Yes, nothing beats a convertible ! I shall never sell my Elise. However, since there's apparently to be no M2 convertible, I'm going to my dealer on friday 09.00 to negociate buying the coupe. I decided the M235i didn't offer me the sensations I need when forking out such a large sum of hard-earned money.

Get the 2016 M2, enjoy it once delivered and don't look back. Mine is produced next week.

The Summer of 2017 may bring the announcement of the M2 CS, but it will require the potential customer to dig deeper into its wallet. And in the meantime time goes by. Life's too short.
