Hard to argue

Everything Doug says about what makes the M2 an Ultimate Driving Machine is true and can be traced back to the precursor to the 1 Series M: the 2010 135 Msport coupe. I added a 4 pipe exhaust, Cobb tune, and a Quaife LSD, and produced a car I can't part with. And, it's paid for

The way they talk is kind of annoying.
But Doug is funny and show interesting quirks.
Shmeeee sounds like a smooth car salesman with a "lisp" and is just boring.

Exactly. Not sure why some people are having a tough time comprehending this. In other videos he will say; "Here's why the McLaren 600LT is worth $300,000" or "Here's why the Lexus RC-F has been a total flop", etc.

M2c in BSM has probably the best looking exterior of M cars. However M3 in white is not far off

Could not have said it better myself, well done sir.

Personally the E46 M3 is the "best" M driver's car IMO, while the E92 M3 is the "best" M car covering double duty (road and track).

FYI The M2 is longer, wider and taller than the E46 3 series, so take that as liking "smaller" M cars.

Actually, the M2 is .6” shorter in length, with a 1.5” shorter wheelbase, than the E46 M3. The track is wider, and the M2 is 1.5” taller. But the M2 is not longer.

Kindly read what i said carefully, i said it was longer, taller and wider than the E46 3 series NOT the E46 m3 ^^

But is there a difference in length between the E46 3 series and E46 m3?

The standard 3 series E46 coupe is same length as M3 (.1” shorter in length actually), and .2” shorter in wheelbase than the E46 M3.

The M2 and the E46 M3 are more or less same dimensions. Does the extra .5” really make a difference? (That’s what she said)

I always wonder if the 1M hype would be valid if it was mass produced. Sometimes the supply demand curve tend to defy logic.
