Watch some nice raw sights and sounds of the BMW M2 (see our video review), M2 Safety Car (more info), and M2 with the 1M Coupe and 2002 Turbo, all on the famed Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.

The safety car sounds amazing. Besides M performance exhaust, what is done to it? Full de-cat?

I am going to do this on day one, don't care about drone since it's not my road trip car. Hopefully we can recreate this sound and it hasn't been "digitally enhanced" by the audio mixing engineers for the video.

This car is fucking sick.

Props BMW, you've hit a grand slam with the M2.

I posted that safety car video way earlier hoping to get featured. Oh well, I guess this thread is better since it has all the other vids compiled.

Sounds great btw.

As I said in my earlier thread.

Hah.

Wow that safetycar is sick!! For some reason it looks awesome with the flashing lights as well - might be my motor sport loving heart that burns for stuff like this

BimmerF32_430i · 02-18-2016, 02:44 PM

Are those the carbon ceramic brakes as well? I thought the M2 didn't have that option

King_Slayer · 02-18-2016, 02:47 PM

Is that Burt Reynolds in the 2nd pic with the white air born 2002??

Bosozoku · 02-18-2016, 02:58 PM

2nd video is the best M2 video yet.
But it's disturbing to see the car going the wrong way on the track!

BGR · 02-18-2016, 03:16 PM

Sounds good. Looks heavy, but sounds good.

DS_BMW · 02-18-2016, 03:21 PM

Oh how I want an M2!!!

M-Pilot · 02-18-2016, 03:32 PM

Has anyone else noticed the lizard at 0:11 in the second video?

ashburyn54 · 02-18-2016, 03:45 PM

M2 with real exhaust mods is going to sound insane. The new overrun tuning is just right. Catless, non res is going to sound brutal. I probably won't touch the muffler.

csbear · 02-18-2016, 04:22 PM

Safety car sounds very good...I especially like the take off around 15s

DutchM550d · 02-18-2016, 04:32 PM

Love the M2

Safety Car sounds awesome!!

AUSf22 · 02-18-2016, 05:06 PM

The M2 safety car sounds amazing with the MPE! will be interesting to see how other exhaust manufacturers make their own interpretation of the M N55.

By the looks of the reviews, BMW have definitely nailed the M2 in terms of driving dynamics and sound! who cares about having bespoke seats and side mirrors when it sounds this good

RingMeister01 · 02-18-2016, 05:16 PM

The noise puts the M4 in hidding.

aajami · 02-18-2016, 05:22 PM

I love the gold accent on the steering wheel to match the wheels and the CCB caliper color.

Speaking of which, who's going to be the first person to retrofit those F8x CCB calipers on their F87??

Hazey82 · 02-18-2016, 05:24 PM

I really like the contrast you get with the AW against the black wheels, black trim and black M performance kidney and side grilles. But it's a shame the lines and flares don't come out as strong as LBB
