Don't think it's quite soon enough to be seeing these in the US. Germany would most likely be where this baby is hiding...for now.

If it helps, I've seen BMW testing a bunch of cars in Malibu (saw the current X5M before release and the upcoming M5CS on PCH).

I actually ran into a BMW test group testing the M2C in 2017 on top of pikes peak doing high altitude testing.
I was doing a road trip for the eclipse and decided to do a lay over in CO and drove up pikes peak. I chatted with them for like 30 minutes as they had one guy drive up and down. |

Was just about to close a deal on a New November 2020 built M2C to replace my 2018 M2, but after reading this entire thread, will just wait for the G87..
Definitely worth the wait and high expectations. |

People seem to be appreciating that bigger is not always better (eg. success of iPhone 12 mini) but BMW design ethos seems 5 years behind the times - or catering to international markets that possibly are going to change direction faster than BMW has anticipated. |

I'm glad to see I am not the only one who has completely lost faith in BMW's enthusiast market.
No true petrolhead wants a computer infested transmission in a bloated chassis full of all kinds of useless electronics to keep you on the road. If you need all this, then perhaps investing in driving tuition is a better direction. But alas, gone are the days when you could order most BMW M models with a manual (as that was the default option). Thank god at least Porsche is still introducing proper drivers cars with a manual.

But please people - don't stick a BMW hood badge on your F87 C-pillar. You won't be fooling anyone.

Perfect! I love my M2C so much that I think I'll find a lot of gripes with the G87 to say silly things like "my car is the last great M car" forcing me to keep it, while planning on getting a G87 somewhere around 2025 to put in the garage next to my F87..., and then getting the final best version of G87 in 2029 to put in the garage next to those two. Time to plan out the saving arc for my trio of M2s.

This has got a 1M feel to it with those fenders.
