Can i get the flashing LEDs as just fog lights? I'd love those.
Maybe that wing too.

Why can't I have the Cermaic brakes on this car for my M2!?!

///M2-PILOT · 02-19-2016, 12:29 PM

I'm curious about the tune on that car, MP exhaust = Less back pressure = ECU adj. = ????

It seems to be a great expense (~$4k with CF tips) for little to no performance gain or weight loss and only noise!

Just my 2¢

It doesn't look too bad, but that is just me.

I'd be surprised if the CCB's would not fit on the M2.

This pace car leaves little doubt about the CSL coming.

Does anyone notice the gold trim on the center of the steering wheel. It matches the wheels. It is being tested as a package. I like the splitter. The ride looks very firm and the CCB finish it off nicely.

While I am hoping the CSL will still take on more exaggerated bodywork, I could also live with a more aggressive M2 with better underpinnings. And that exhaust! WOW.

Your right, it is a tragedy, the 2002 went 0-60 in 9 seconds and the M2 does is 4.2. They aren't even on the same planet in terms of performance. This weight thing gets kind of old. The reality is mass produced cars have to pass a crazy level of safety requirements in addition to having amenities that most buyers want. I would love to see the list of competitors cars that have gotten lighter over the past 20 years. That list doesn't exist. If you want a light car buy one that is 30 years old, it can't exist in this environment that is why they don't exist.
