My new HS M2c

Kankles · 06-22-2019, 03:17 AM

Moved back to Europe in January and put in an order for M2c straight away. She's been sitting at the dealer for six weeks while I get my registration, etc. Worth the wait for sure. The last M was my beloved E46 M3 (sold in US last year) and also have recently been in F80, 335is, etc (all 6mt).

The M2c isn't a "stripper" per se but she does have 6mt, manual seats, larger brakes, no sunroof. Went with the 437M wheels (lighter and look better (imo)). Also went for the driver pack with one day training in DE and higher speed limiter. Still in break-in but already prefer the driving dynamics over the F80. Anyway, happy to be back in a proper M car, cheers.

Hi, yup, Den Haag, but originally from Kentucky

Congrats! I picked up my HS M2C yesterday and absolutely love it! It reminds me of my e46 M3 in a very good way.

Thanks, and congrats to you! It's an updated e46 version with a stronger motor down low. Only thing that's evident when you drive the older generations, and I miss in the newer models, is the analog steering.

Congrats! Looking good!

Congratulation! My HS MT should be here next week and then I will also make the F80 to F87 transition.

I thought 437s couldn't fit with the 2NH brake option...?

They can fit, they may not be able to be optioned with it in certain countries.

As scout said they certainly fit and are the Stock, no cost option in EU for M2c.

What doesn't fit are the 18" 513M which I was planning to carry over from F80 and use as winter wheels..

Love that sticker on the windshield!

The HS looks so awesome in these pictures - very nice and congrats!

chris719 · 06-25-2019, 10:27 AM

Looks great!

Somehow that E46 M3 pic in there makes the M2 look a little bloated in comparison. Silver Gray > HS too still

. It’s unfair to compare to such a classically good looking design, I know.

Thanks, company called heel and toe. They have or at least had a cool T-shirt "WOT" with the shift gate inside the "O"

Super comfortable and they send free stickers (or at least they did with my shirt)

Thanks, as many others have stated on here, it really is a dynamic color. I've always loved fashion grey and this is a close second for me considering there's no "individual" up charge
