That is an S55. Love it or hate it, that is the sound.

M2 and M2C is like the movie twins. M2C is Arnold Schwarzenegger. The Civic M2 is Danny Devito, aka the crap leftover.

Mechanical differences:
S55(more power, closed deck, higher redline)
Air to water top mount cooling
New dual valued exhaust system
Carbon strutbrace
Bulkhead bracing
Spring/damper retuning
Ball joint suspension
Electronic steering retuning
Stability control retuning
M1/M2 programmable buttons
Upgraded brakes(400mm/380mm)

That's not warm, and in comfort - at least that's my guess...

I had a 2016 M3, I'm 6'2" and 195 lbs. I actually thought the seats were great...loved the driving position and never felt uncomfortable. I drove the car from LA to Yellowstone in 2 days (1000 miles), and the only discomfort I experienced was the occasional awkward silence between my dad in the passenger seat and me (we sometimes argue).

This was actually an XDrive event put on by BMW Canada not any dealer. It was at Ontario Place. The actual vehicles we drove were an X2 and X3 M4.0i on a small autocross style course. The X2 performed well given its front drive architecture. The real standout was the X3 this thing is just amazing. It's sports car like in its power and handling. The BMW instructors raved about this thing privately.

In addition we drove an X5 and X6 on a simulated off road course with ramps and a giant see saw. Outside the road course area they had cars on display including an M550i, M4CS and the M2 Competition. The highlight was we got to ride in the new M5 for a couple of hot laps with the pros. The M5 is mind blowing don't believe the negativity in the automotive media. It's just awesome and I had several offline chats with the pro drivers many of whom I know well having attended many BMW events and they were all ranting about the M5. Unfortunately none had driven the M2 Competition yet. Here are some additional pics of the event:

Civic M2 owners are like an insecure father trying to rationalize why his son wears skirts and throws like a girl.

Exactly!

It's a Turbo! It will never sound like a NA S65 e92 M3!

"Civic M4" - is a nickname for M4s without the Competition package. Non-Comp M4 owners don't seem to bothered by the obvious dig..

Example:

ZCP Exhaust - Any difference from "Civic" M4 https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1403530
