I don't want to burst any bubbles but the only car I remember being anywhere near as uncomfortable was the S2000 where I had a similar feeling of being Andre the Giant. I have no issues with the M2 or most any other car for that matter!

Agreed. I am 6'4 and it's outright unbearable to sit in one of those

Same here it's tight AF inside

A bitch getting in an out and consider yourself lucky not hitting your head in the process

Since you already have an OG M2, have you ever considered going Porsche, maybe a 911 991.2 GT3?

This ‼️

I would go 718. This Supra looks like a 16 year old's wet dream.

That's an interesting way of putting it

Not that I disagree by any means

718 in GT trim is cracking

If that is a pic of your MG OG M2, keep it!

The practicality of the M2 would deter me from a Supra. I'd get a MKIV Supra before the new one. But I'm a 90's kid, so the MKIV always holds a special place in my heart. Never had one, always wanted one.

If you have a 991.2 GT3, why would you need anything else? Lol

I just sold my 991.2 GT3 and bought a M2 OG

Interesting. What are your ownership impressions of the GT3 vs the M2?

I like the Z4 M Coupe better 😀

As a former 2x Z4MC owner I couldn't resist posting that one. Turned up in my Insta feed the other day.

I wish they'd make another M Coupe (and offer it either a manual transmission)!

Well the short story is that I prefer the M2 except for the suspension :
- 1/4 price
- more practical
- more punch down low (and I haven't even tuned the engine YET ;-)
- less attention (is a plus for me)
- cheaper to run
I have changed the tyres to non run flat PS4S to see if the crashiness gets better, if not I will change the suspension
But dont get me wrong : the 991.2 GT3 is a hell of a car but just not for me (maybe down the road a 992 GT3 touring when used prices are good...)

At least you got to experience GT3 ownership. I want to, but getting sick and tired of the games Porsche dealers play. At least the ones in the Phoenix AZ market.
