M2CS General Chat and Stuff

Congrats! Keen to hear thoughts on CS v the M4 once you've put on some kays.

Piets94 · 03-02-2021, 03:15 AM

Just an FYI if anyone is looking for a CS, Essendon have an AW in their showroom, DCT, black wheels, red brakes. Retail is 168k d/a

Went past today to have a look. AW looks great (all colours look great on the CS actually). I prefer the HS, but the carbon bits contrast well against the white.

Congrats emack, enjoy and good luck keepin it under 5k

Make sure you creat a small post on the main site so Artemis can get you on the Aussie purchase list.

Yes. Lovely car. Much nicer than the barge. I think there are 3 Aussies now without delivery posts. C'mon. We can take over this thing.

Yeah, 7500 for DCT. It used to be a NCO! Wtf, BMW Australia. My HS was rrp 172k before negotiating 😳.

Tell me about it. I'm lucky I live in SA, if I lived in Victoria I'd be paying almost $182k RRP to drive her away.

Fecking clever them BMW executives, I tells'ya.

Those ceramics you optioned, eh!

I did a quick check on stamps on say 150k in a few states to annoy myself:
SA - 5940
NSW - 6600
ACT - 8100
QLD - 8250
VIC- 10500

Gee, I miss SA... Not just the execs having a laugh, these politicians have to pay for snap lockdowns somehow I guess.

Does anyone know the major differences between Australian M2 CS specs and the USA delivered vehicles?

I know for some ridiculous reason BMW gave us the crappy air con system over the dual system the US got.

Are there any other differences? Auto seats?

We miss out on heated seats because we got the simpler climate control system. That's all I'm aware of. The climate control system isn't actually that bad, but I'll miss the heated seats.

Our steering wheel is on the other side.

We don't have the ugly orange turds at the front.
We still have the speed limit display.
I kinda like the retro AC control. Fits the car really well.

Mitch, great guy, did my 911 full wrap and ceramic.

Glad to hear all you guys moping about missing your 1M . . . since I seem to be the only one left in the old original 1M-owners gang who kept his!

(and it makes up for my non-stop envy over your beautiful M2CS)

Can't believe it has been over 10 years since we were all desperately waiting for our 1Ms to be delivered!!

Come in friend, get out of the cold and enter the warmth of the hearts and engines of the M2CS dystopians; watch out though, you might trip over a couple of M2 Comps on your way in

Hi mate and the memory is still there..
Dont know if you recall Don in Sydney, as he also kept his VO 1M aswell as purchasing M2C..
So he has the best of both worlds..

Still have mine. Originally delivered Oct 2012

I see the regret from former owners and vow never to do the same!

Hi everyone, just in the midst of negotiating a price with a dealer. One other member has kindly provided me with some price info, just wondering if anyone else was willing to share with me what they paid?

Thanks
