I guess a back up tire will adjust the weight distribution alright. |

So autoblog is claiming M2 competition will replace current M2, which seems odd. Even odder is that this thread is claimed as the source:
https://www.autoblog.com/2018/02/13/...-405-hp-debut/ Am I missing something? I didn't see that mentioned here

The competition package is what all the base M car should of been. It’s make perfect business and any of you who think other wise just have more dollar then cents.

The 2016-2018 M2 is what it is. The M2 Competition is not what the M2 " should have been", The M2 Competition is what the M2 became. # because Manufacturers improve things ..which of course makes perfect business sense .. |

Because even with this down grade, it still makes M2 a decent car. So it leaves room for new generation to come without scraching their head too hard. |

BMW markets the M2 as a loss leader. An excellent product that makes very little profit for the dealers. This motivates the dealer to sell a vehicle that is in stock and that makes higher margins. The M235/240, the M3 and the M4 are all vehicles that dealer sales reps try to sell customers up or down to. The M2 is usually not available on the lot ( other than perhaps a demo) which is standard operating procedure for a loss leader. The M3 and M4 have items that many buyers want.. s55 , "M mirrors ", "M seats" , nicer leather , nicer looking carbon fiber. CF roof A larger color palette of standard colors , Bmw individual is available. Etc etc. M3 and M4 and M240 are all usually available on the lot or can be purchased and received sooner than M2. Combine the the Leasing options and price discounts for the M3/M4 which are readily available and most buyers F off and buy an M3/M4 which is what BMW NA/AG wants. Nominal improvements to the M2 will keep the sizzle going and customers will continue to come in to stores, be disappointed by the lack of availability , and will often switch to the M3 and M4. |

Keep in mind this isn’t the traditional add-on “competition package”, this is a new model range being introduced.

The original M2 paved the way for the M2 Competition. Alike a ladder to get to another floor: increasing the price-tag closer to M3/M4 territory. The car world is now familiar with the M2. The hype exists. BMW M can afford with confidence to raise the M2 bar a few notches.

Seems like no matter how many times it was explained before, there's always someone new or someone who just don't get why the M2 was made this way. |
