Shocking, OP owns a 2017 and prefers it! No bias there.
I would hate it too if I had just purchased a 2017 and one year late BMW made huge improvements. The price has gone up significantly though, so find solace in that. The original M2 was under-priced, and I think BMW has realized that. (Hello all - I have a M2 Comp on order!) |

It's well known that the S55 engine sounds much better when warm, not on a cold start, as the OP posted.
That said, I have heard this engine in the M2 Competition and I think it sounds very good! And my main ride is a C63 507 Edition, so I know a great engine sound when I hear it. |

Can't wait to run into one of these at the track. Problem is, most will never see the track, especially up here, just at coffee meets
Looks great, imo. Thanks. OP

Oh yeah! What a difference. I think the stock sounds good, but this is a different league.

People with the 1st gen M2 at least can be happy they paid a lot less. The price has gone up by $9000 in Canada, similarly equipped. That's significant, an 11% increase. From $71k for a 2018 to $79k. Do I think it's worth it? Heck YA! But $8k is $8k. |

Not because it doesn't deserve praise - it does, it's a great power plant - but because it feels like it was only a few years ago that it considered a downgrade from the N54. How times change! |

Now I know why the official videos was shot in a wear house for the echo or playing music of the engine note. It's funny how the official launch in Beijing sounded very different to this real life video.

Interesting how we all get along given we all love the brand!! I’d love to see a forum launched with two different manufacturers and see what the fallout would be.... BMW vs AUDI. Now that would come with a health warning

Yeah, got an X3 M40i for the wifey. Awesome little crossover. Looks good next to my M3 ZCP and maybe an M2C

I am 6'1 and about 200lbs, never had an issue with the side bolsters on my f80. Took semi long drives and did not find the seats to be uncomfortable. I had carbon structure seats, after 3 years the seats still looked new with out a single wrinkle on the side bolster. But then again I have chicken legs, so maybe that had something to do with it not bothering me. If I were to get the M2c I would definitely spec the upgraded seats over the standard ones.

Yeah, it is like night and day. Active Autowerkes says the single path exhaust synchronizes the exhaust coming out of the twin turbos, smooths it out. Not sure why anyone buys any other brand of aftermarket exhaust for the M3/M4.
