Thought the M2 was already a great value!

Market depended! This is not the case for us in Europe.

MR

Well if in fact standard in the US then that will make the MSRP here a matter of debate again I suppose.

Oh the agony.

Same as on the M3 or M4 without the adaptive suspension. Nothing new, you can put your ejector seat under that button....

Only thing I like is the red start button.

BMWZ4 · 04-17-2018, 06:02 PM

Guessing $80kCAD...probably. Nice car, would love to own one, but too steep.

Curious why they put those 6 pot brakes on the M2 and not on the M3/M4. They look great and want them for my M3 regardless if they don't perform any better than the 4 pots!!

Probably cheaper overall given they all fit under the M wheels. May as well have one part number. No performance difference apparently.

Ooh just noticed the new gauge design.Much improved.

ooooo boy, anyone else feeling some e46 nostalgia? Might have to jump on this in a couple years

New carbon-fiber friction lining enhances shift feel of manual transmission

I hope this can retrofitted into the base models

elitex · 04-17-2018, 06:11 PM

I just can't help but feel that Bmw screwed the original M2 buyers. Why not offer S55 originally? All the competition packages so far were the same engine just higher state of tune. This is a first for Bmw.

Edtex · 04-17-2018, 06:11 PM

What color are the brake calipers? I cannot see any clear photo's

Because the S55 was never intended to go into the M2 Competition. Brand new emission regulations meant that the N55 has to become end of life this summer.

I don't believe you can spec standard suspension with ZCP but besides the point, I'm sure IND will sell a $30 red blank button in the future.
