I just wish we knew what the whole lineup looked like - aka, will the Competition be the last M2 for the F87 generation? Or are we going to get something more hardcore (CSL?)
The lack of verified info puts you in a tough place as a potential customer...

For me the M2 Comp is the one. I'm not interested in a CSL or a version that has recaro seats and a roll bar. I track maybe 2x a year. My car OCD prevents me from going to track more often lmao.

I am guessing that would be the best car for me as well, but it's nice to know the whole menu before choosing your meal. For example, if I had the chance, I think I could live with the compromises of say, a GT4, just so I could enjoy a car of that magnitude. BMW hasn't really made cars like that (the M4 GTS doesn't count in my opinion), so it will be interesting to see what a M2 CSL turns out to be...

I'm really happy with my non-Competition M2. One of the biggest factors for me was the price. I wanted an affordable daily driver. If I was in a higher price-range, I'd get the Giulia Quadrifoglio, not the M2 CS.... That is not intended to be disparaging of the M2 CS, which I am sure will be an amazing car, well worth every penny.

I talked to my dealer about this and supposedly it will be very pricey, especially compared to what kind of discount can be had on normal M2 now (down here anyway).
Im sure it will be awesome but for some people price is quite important Id love to not care though. |

The base M2 needs to stay below 60K USD in my opinion - so if the Comp is to become the base, they can go up by ~5 grand and still start under 60. But it will be interesting to see...

I haven't seen LBB when the car has been clean and in good light, so I've never liked it. I am interested in the new HS option though.
People who have LBB seem to really like it though. PS - I know you didn't ask me, but I thought I would tell you anyway.

Based on the VINs of all the S55 M2s already made we know a lot about what it has, at least when optioned out.

Don't think he was trolling or insulting - he is just saying BMW loves people that dump their cars every year! Most Auto mfg's love this type of customer

Moreover, there are already several PR campaign cars built and scheduled (photo, movie and trade fair: options 901, 903, 904 and 906). Those particular cars are supposed to be sufficiently loaded to represent what can be expected, don't you think ?

I am awaiting the M2 which has the most development and is track oriented. Per BMW's own description.. this would be a CS.. or... actually. a CSL. I'm not interested in a FWD or FWD/AWD version of a 2 series at all. I've owned many FWD and one AWD vehicle and the performance isn't coming from the proper wheels in either to make me giddy. |
