If there's nothing out there that you really want to replace it with, then I'd hold off until there is. If a ways down the road the car is getting up in miles and there still isn't anything new that is tempting, then maybe a low-mileage M2c might be the way to go.

I wonder what they would give to you if you traded it in?

I would definitely stay away from the M2 comp. It's way too expensive at this point. If you could trade yours in and get the new M2 for sticker that would be a total win.

You won't need rod bearings, but point of fact, it'll never be worth more than it is today (probably).

There is definitely no better time to sell if you want to trade up

But then again if it was me I would wait for the new M2

Well I don't disagree with you

I still have some hope but I am not so sure what to think at this point

I’m leaning towards keeping it for now and wait till the m2c prices come down. Who knows how long that will be? This article is saying 2024 ugh.

Nah, you have the OG, so I'd hold on until the G87 comes out and then move to that.

If m2c prices are down then m2 prices are probably also down. If you think you might be interested in g87 next gen m2 might as well just wait and see what happens. If not the price delta between m2 and m2c probably won't change that much between now and a few years from now to justify waiting if an m2c is what you want.

Don't sell, I sold my 19 m2 comp manual for 10k over and now I have to wait for the new m2's to come out or 7 months for a new m4 since car prices are crazy!

Clutch before 100K? Anyone else think that's a bit on the early side? IMO no need to do a clutch before 150K on most modern cars, I drive my GTI hard (all 120K miles) and had some track days on it as well and the clutch is known for being weak in those and I'm not close to needing a new one.

Although I do get some clutch chatter when it's really hot out in the M2, maybe a new one would help solve it...

Ah okay makes sense. Yeah everything I've read says that a little chatter is normal but god do I hate it. I actually take off a little more aggressively with heavier throttle just to avoid it.

I decided to sell mine only because the prices were high. I'm waiting to see if the G80 LCI comes out this year before I order it!
