Those tuners don't change a lot to the Nm/torque. That's what they keep fairly stock or a bit higher. To keep it drivable.

On these hot days we have now, M2C easily can handle a 500HP tune traction wise. Easily. And it's depending on tyrechoice etc. too.

Seriously he makes his argument with pure laughter and just can't get over the fact the OG is inferior to the M2C. Get over it these are facts which you cannot argue lol. We all still love the OG which is why most of us bought one initially but it's just not on the S55 level as expected.

Ofc is better , but this doesnt mean at all that the og sucks ! The e36 is faster than the e30 again , but that doesnt mean anything , as year pass by , those cars m2 &m2c will be too slow in comparison . Just enjoy your car, F87 is a great platform , and this is really what it makes the M2 a great car .

Nope wouldn't be able to smell them - would definitely have the windows up to try to keep from hearing the awful farting noises coming from your car.

To be fair, neither car turns heads. Only BMW enthusiasts know what it is.

I wouldn't say that.Maybe not were you live (New Jersey I assume) but were I live it does. I have people looking at my car all the time.

I agree only BMW enthusiast know what they are, but the M2 is a aggressive,nice looking car, and regular people notice it a lot. (Almost too much for my taste sometime LOL)

Not true - I've had at least 15 people say to me: "Nice car!" and two asked: "Can I take a picture of your car?"

This thing is the biggest cock magnet this side of a GT-R, for better or (way) worse.

When the OG M2 was released it was awesome.

Then... when the M2C was released that was awesome, the M2 was automatically total shit.

Guess what, when the M2CS is released the M2C will automatically be total shit.

That's how it works folks.

.....if you need that much power
It's all for show and bragging rights.
They don't know what to do with that extra power.
It doesn't take much to do donuts in the parking lot.

We all got an awesome car guys no need to argue, wether it's og M2 or M2C, I'm just happy to drive an M2. I love any M2 I see. You still don't see too many out in the wild unlike f80/f82s, so I appreciate any time I see any M2 out in the wild. Also yes this thing does turn heads a bit more then I like haha, cock magnet is right.

I find it comical when people say they wouldn't upgrade because of their inability to use the added power on the street. This applies to any car. If we are gauging cars in this fashion we should all be driving a Prius as most late model cars are too much for street driving if driven in anger.

You find it comical that I wouldn't spend the money to upgrade from an M2 to an M2c for the additional power for public road use? 😐

I'm not saying I wouldn't choose the M2c for similar money if I currently owned neither. Do you see the difference there?

[QUOTE=nt10pro;24815217]Recently replaced my 2017 MG M2 with the new 2019 HS M2C. One month in, I'm super-excited with that move, but would gladly open it to discussion...
Would anybody else on this forum definitely/not_on_your_life do it?
Honest opinions only...



I traded my LCI and could not be happier.

Global BMW yes?

I'll have to admit that if I had already purchased an M2 I would have a difficult time justifying an upgrade to a M2C. Since I didn't own an M2, getting the M2C for $3k less than MSRP made sense compared to an M2. That was then, now there are still a few new M2s out there that are going for deep discounts. Personally I would likely still make the decision to get the M2C but I understand that some people would make the decision to save the bucks.

I'm in pure denial? What's so hard to fathom about someone not wanting to spend the money on a similar model that's faster and sounds worse, for street use? Especially when I got my OG M2 for $49k CAD (equivalent to $37k USD)? Get over yourself thinking people can't have their own justifications for how they do or don't spend their money.
