I'd sure like to see these dynos of which he speaks....375/380....."this car is somewhere between 400, maybe 420/430 horsepower." I was waiting for him to completey go off and say perhaps 480/500.

Yeah, his comment was simply incorrect. Dynojet numbers for stock M2 is around 330-335whp. Dynojet numbers for stock M1 is close to the same.

Hilarious! I remember the days of recording the original Top Gear with a VCR. I felt so cool back then

I think his 1M has some carbon build up if the M2 feels that much faster than it. Love me both of these cars though!

Comparing the M2 (to the M4): "... everybody knows this is the better car."
There ya go.

I haven't seen any of his previous reviews but that was slightly painful to watch .. besides the incorrect HP quotes and other questionable things he said, the M2 does come with a sunroof.. he just wanted to make himself feel better about not ticking that option imo

It's available in Canada as well. That convenient extra power outlet under the glovebox is another thing we don't get.
