The plate off my E39 M5 would look quite good on there too... shame I cant bloody afford one!

There is always the lottery on Friday I guess! :D

I want M2 8OYD but some bugger already owns it :mad:

Just had a phonecall from the supplying BMW dealership and I'm apparently their 1st allocation for Q1 in 2017!

Added the full M2 enhanced kit which consists of carbon fibre rear spoiler, side blades, rear diffuser, front splitter corners, black kidney grills and side grilles.

Can't make my mind up on the carbon tipped sports exhaust at present.

Saw an M2 parked smack bang outside the reception doors of my BMW dealership. Looks amazing especially in that baby blue.

Matty81 23 September 2016 03:26 PM

Agreed! Could of got an awesome gtr for that money! Looks decent though!

DoZZa 23 September 2016 04:00 PM

I am looking at the possibility of buying one of these!

Its either the M2, a new WRX STI, or a used GT-R.

WRX is about £30k, a good used GT-R is about £40k and the M2 will be about £50k by the time I have added all the options I want!

Had two E46 M3's and loved them.

ccsimpreza 23 September 2016 04:01 PM

Do not get a new STI for the love of god haha.

Considered a GTR but It wouldn't be practical for me and the running costs are stupid. Also looked at 997 Turbos but trying to find a decent manual one within budget was impossible

I've had mine two weeks, still running in but it's freakin awesome!!. I would hold out on the sports exhaust until you get the car. I find the standard exhaust sounds pretty good already.

Just what I thought about doing. £2800 is a lot of cash for an exhaust especially when the standard one seems to sound so good.

Have you tried the hidden exhaust hack yet ?

If you mean pressing the TC button while in comfort mode, yes and it sounds pretty good. £2800 is alot for the exhaust and I think they take the piss charging extra for the tips. Although Cotswold BMW will do it for £2400.

I would rather spend the money on the Mperformance suspension.

That's the one yeah. Does it actually make a difference to the exhaust sound?

I got my local Stealer to match Cotswold's price of £2500 on the Enhanced Kit so I'm sure they'd do the same on the exhaust.

Love the sound of the M2, check this guys review, Goes sideways well.;)

Uncle Creepy 08 October 2016 11:51 AM

Jesus, does that thing sound good! A more entertaining review than the usual, generic type by some boring motoring journo.

I don't think the "John" alter-ego and smiley face is fooling anybody, though. :lol1:

B0DSKI 08 October 2016 01:29 PM

So much for keeping it below 5500 Rpm for the 1st 1200 miles ;)

Single turbo but twin scroll not twin turbo and NO they can't be mapped to 450 Bhp. From what I've been told the turbo maxes out at 420 Bhp

Uncle Creepy 08 October 2016 05:16 PM

And I'm sure he says the M2 (at 365 bhp) has less power than the 1M coupe, which isn't right. The 1M had about 340, I believe.

That M2 looks freighting fast as standard, imagine with a remap you will be grinning like this>>>>>>>>:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Uncle Creepy 09 October 2016 10:41 AM

Ha, true. But the first time you go round a corner a bit too fast in the rain, this is going to happen>>>>>>>>>>>>>:shtf::shtf::shtf::shtf:

RAGGY DOO 09 October 2016 07:34 PM

Seriously guys Bodski is one of the nicest guys around and I dont say that about many people, he has waited ages to find a car that tickes all the boxes for him. Enjoy it bro and I know it will be the cleanest one in the country ;)

Ha, I haven't got a problem with Bodski! I was only joking about hoping he crashes his M2. Actually, when he was thinking about getting a TTRS, I offered to take him for a razz in mine. I would've let him drive it, too.

I was having a joke with Scoobyboy and used it as an opportunity to use my favourite emoticon (s**t hits the fan) and then he called me a muppet, so I thought I'd bust his balls, that's all. :lol1:
