Yes, I was just gonna come back and say that.
On a second thought it actually makes sense given they deleted some stuff that used to be standard. Thanks.

BTW, there's a MG M2 available at BMW Sydney - someone cancelled the order in the last minute. You should find more details here http://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1401711
Cheers.

Very interested to upgrade my M135i to an M2 LCI.

Not sure what discounts if any dealers are offering on M2s.

Anyone have any idea if it is even remotely possible to get a fully loaded 18 m2 lci for less than RRP? Im in metro melb

Well since RRP does not include on road costs, taxes, etc this is highly unlikely IMO. Try adding $10k and hope to negotiate that down $4-5k...

Seems obvious WAY works for a dealership and stalks this forum to a) get pricing reference points for his/her own sales; and b) wants an easy sale now.



Kudos to him/her for making more effort than most dealerships...

Lol don't give up your day job, unless your day job is being a detective then please give it up immediately. I can be pretty sure I've had more BMWs and M cars than you so I'm not sure about stalking this forum. Would be nice if I did work for a dealership as I may actually get staff discounts for cars I buy.

Muffy, clearly you are new to the world of bimmerpost, 1Addicts et al

Do some research and you will find WAY is a well regarded very long time member round these parts and is definitely not a car salesman (which would be hilarious if he was hehe hahaha)

Hi guys,
I am expecting delivery of my LCI m2 in BSM in late october/early Nov here in Brisbane and am wondering if there is any likelihood of the m performance body parts not fitting the lci model? It doesn't seem as if any major changes to the body have changed so assume that the diffuser, rear wing, front splitters and rear winglets should still fit? My dealers body shop is unsure and I think are waiting for my car to go down the line and receive a vin prior to ordering anything.

Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

I'm pretty confident in saying all the Performance parts you mentioned will still fit, as you say there are no changes to the body shape at all in the LCI model.

Cheers for the responses guys. I'm currently weighing up the costs as the dealer hasn't provided much discount even considering I'm buying the car through them which I've heard varying stories of. The wait is going to kill me! Bring on late october!

Kab congrats again. Are you thinking about an exhaust at all? Has anyone heard the Akra? I know it's expensive but I like the idea that it doesn't cut the stock exhaust at all. I know the remus is the same (no cuts) however isn't as raspy as the akra or mpe. Hmmmm. Decisions decisions.

Thanks!

I have been thinking about it but I want to get a real feel for the stock first before I make up my mind.

People have said conflicting things about the Akra and the MPE in terms of sound preference. Haven't heard anything about Remus yet.
