It was a tongue in cheek comment.

Also why would the suspension be lighter? If anything, have to think it’s heavier than static with the extra electronic components and valving. |

I love my M2C, really 2-3 hours driving is such a great moment of fun, the CS would for sure make me smile a lot too, just I would want to make longer stops to admire it, take too many pictures and be obsessed to make it shine ... this car is almost too beautiful for me Last edited by Al1969; 11-11-2019 at 11:59 PM.. |

50% over base is legit, period, end of discussion. Can't see it? Walk please.
Unlike its M3/M4 CS siblings approaching 911s-GTS territory, which we call stupid, at 85k (US market) there is an actual market for the M2 CS. Can't satisfy everyone, especially those who just want to pay less. Those wanting it for under 80k are completely jokers.

They have proven it is lighter as it is made of aluminum. Not sure if it is significantly light but lighter nonetheless.

The limited diffusion then allows BMW to charge a 50% premium while development costs were close to zero. BMW should be very happy that today the purist base has nearly disappeared and that discussions don't focus anymore on handling/steering feel/soul of the engine ...but rather on the appearance of the carbon roof /carbon parts, caliper and wheel colors. |

Same as when the M2C was released, original M2 owners went over it with a fine-tooth comb, nitpicking whatever fault they could find to justify their purchase. If you don't like the car or price, no one is putting a gun to your head, don't buy it. Turn off your phone and move on. Take all the criticism with a grain of salt, it's just a bag of sour grapes.. |

The M3/4 CS achieved limited success (and got in the hands of the enthusiast crowd) only after crazy deals/market adjustment of $10-20k off MSRP. I hope the pricing for the M2CS will be adjusted from the beginning to see the car sell well (and quickly), so it can become the sought after halo car BMW so desperately needs now. If it is indeed deserving of that halo status, which is at the moment uncertain. I don't want them to fail, I want them to succeed. I want to be convinced I need to trade in my M3 next year...
