Just got my new Armytrix exhaust system. The difference between closed and open valve is insane. Perfect for daily driving.. And it sounds nasty when they are open

Collecting my ARMYTRIX exhaust for my BMW F87 M2

I was in Germany a couple months back and saw 4 or 5 M2's. Every one was modded and blasting around town at a high rate of speed! In general, is the M2 seen as a "young person's" car in Germany? Here in the US, I get the impression that the ownership demographic is a bit older just due to the higher price of the vehicle.

I think you can't generalize it as there are also "older" people driving a M2. End of last year the BMW dealers offered a big discount on the M2s, which obviously helped the young generation to afford such a car..

Hey Alex, I like the stripe on the wheel. I would love to get one for my M2 as well, where did you get it from? I’m also in Germany for the next 3 years and I live near Stuttgart. Hockenheimring is about an hour from my house and green hell is close too. I plan on hitting up those tracks few times per year. Perhaps i’ll see you at one of the tracks!

Its the BMW M-Performance steering wheel so you can get it from nearly each dealer.
Just hit me up when you are around

Hi Alex!

Im looking to get a new suspension. Why you go to KW V3 instead Ohlins R&T for example?

Thanks.

I got a late 2017 M2 DCT a few weeks ago. First upgrades are done and more to come soon!

Is it common to do "build threads" as it is in German forums? If yes, I would keep you up to date and give you some more information about the car.

Will leave you a few pics for the moment

















Best regards,
Alex
Nice Car man!

Hey! I run different KW suspension now for about six years and I were always very happy with those so there is no reason for me to change.

Agree - big - looks superb.

Specs for yr winter wheel/tyre set up ? I see from photos above you have MPA4 265/40/18 - I assume for the rear - then do you have 245/40/18 MPA4's up front perhaps ??

Anyhow, no doubt winter 18" help drift the car a whole lot easier than summer 19"

Exactly, those are 9x18 ET31 & 10x18 ET33 with 245/40 & 265/40 R18 MPA4.

Drifting is easier indeed, but I try to save the winter tires for the bad snowy days
