That must be a jarring ride (given the shape of the wheels!)

decided to take a ride out post break in service....friend took a rolling shot as we headed into the twisties....love the side prior of this car.

Orange looks good cleaned up and garaged.

JustDrifting · 12-13-2020, 04:33 PM

Same car, 5 photos and 5 different colours. I’m still amazed how different the car can look pending the light. Absolutely love it though whatever!

veenut28 · 12-13-2020, 07:04 PM

It's not the best quality pic, but gotta have at least one of sunset orange at sunset, right?

Love my SO. Very few M2s around and even fewer SO!

Car was sitting in garage for the last week. Had to take it out this evening to remind me why I bought it.

The is one of the best looking cars on the road, especially the side profile. I love the size and how color changes under different lighting.

I picked up this beauty about a month ago. Traded in my 2019 Civic Type R for it. The type R was an incredible ride. Incredible handling, braking, high speed stability, great utility, and awesome shifter (when it was behaving). Acceleration was just OK. Sad to let it go. But the M2 Comp is on another level. Once I saw this in the showroom, it was love at first sight.

Nice trade. My friend just bought a CTR and I drove it a few weeks ago. Great car but no match for pure acceleration. CTR handles well though with less weight. 20" wheels are ridiculous on that car. So non-functional for DD as he already got a pinched flat.

Yeah, he has to get some aftermarket wheels like Titan 7’s. Other than the wheels, the Type R is awesome for it’s price point besides the transmission issues. Still working in on break in with the M2 so haven’t gone WOT yet. This color is sick! And nothing beats rear wheel drive.

I recently got my break in service. Did my first pull against my friends tuned 335i with over 400 at the wheels on 91 gas. The M2C launched better and I was able to pull away slightly at high RPMs. I have to figure out what RPMs to hold at a light to launch. Wait till you have a chance to experience full WOT on the car. It's intoxicating.

Yeah, the engine seems pretty torquey from down low. We have kept the M2 in the garage for the past 2 weeks (heavy snows in the northeast) so I'm eager to break it out again when the next round of rain washes away all the salt. Luckily, my wife telecommutes, so driving the M2 isn't a must during the winter. I've got another 600 miles to go before the 1st service. Gotta get around to painting that muffler.

Skull Valley, AZ. Had to stop at this cool old gas station/feed store as a impromptu backdrop. Tiny town up in the mountains. Decided to do a mountain drive. Great weather and the car drove well through the twisties.
