It's not meant for the roads around here. Plus issues with the front springs and running wider tires. Not sold on the longevity based on other owners who've had it on a daily for over a year. MCS is a great option but you need to run camber plates with them unfortunately. |

Is it possible to get worse mileage on the M2c compared to M3 on CS tune.
I knew I would struggle with the small gas tank but can't tell if its my driving style on the M2c that's causing such large discrepancy between the two S55 engines. |

I drove the M2C for the third time today, same spec as yours.
I'm hooked on this car, and it will likely be my next car. As you said, it's a little go kart. And while the steering isn't like our E9x's, it's as good an EPS rack I've driven. Haven't driven the 991 Porsche though so can't be too sure, but it's better than the Boxster/Cayman.

Not sure how many miles you have, but mileage improved substantially after ~3,000 miles on mine

I have 1 of each, 16 M3 and 19 M2C. The power stock for stock seems the same to me. For me the biggest differences are the steering in the M2C is at least 1 level lighter. Sport in the M2C feels like Comfort in the F80. The M2C rides a bit stiffer than the F80 on comfort suspension setting. The brakes on the M2C have a lot more initial bite and require less pedal effort to stop compared to the blue brakes on the M3. Both cars are good. As far as I know no M2C's came with Conti tires, all are MPSS.

However, I'm pretty sure the power/torque curve on the 2016 non comp M3 was completely different. Even if the actual HP is similar, M2c curve is a lot more linear, while the M3 would shred tires at very low RPM. Unless BMW changed the tune as mine was a very early 2016 build. |
