Who has upgraded / owned both the M2 to M2C

I'm about to upgrade my car and I'm not sure if I should wait for M2C or get a used M2 (which much cheaper also)

Anyone had upgraded or had both M2 & M2C , with some advise in terms of improvements and if wait and extra $$$ is worthwhile?

Would be great to hear all the details before I take the plunge on one of them

Thanks

ps - I do of course realise the engine upgrade is phenomenal, but for me the handling / cornering and overall driveability and enjoyabilty is what I'm looking at here...

Some of the points I'd like to hear about is the comparison of ride harshness, cornering ability with the upgraded suspension , engine responsiveness , and of course the sound of the engine and zorst , and more...

Thanks

It appears so far that M2c is not worth paying an extra 35% on top for v similar car

If I can get a 2018 at a great price then perhaps best to stick to the old one

There's no better time than the present. With the launch of the M2C, M2 prices should be low as they ever will be.
