The m3 /m4 is the car to buy if someone need the last engine....

It may be December before the M2 Comp gets to Italy, but they will likely start production at the factory around the 3rd week in July. They could show up at the Welt by the first or second week in August.

I would hate to say it but M2 N55 engines won't have a good resale value anymore.

Cool story bro.

Just because you believe it doesn't make it so.

[TXSurfer]

I don't get why everyone thinks N55 owners would be pissed. I have a 2017 M2 and have a deposit on an allocation for a Comp. I see it as I got to drive a really cool car and now I'm upgrading. I didn't buy this vehicle as an investment lol that would have been dumb. I've lost my ass on plenty of car purchases. If your living paycheck to paycheck I can understand you wanting to get your moneys worth though.

Are you sure about May 15th for the US order?

Talk to your dealer now and grab an allocation.

No, I'm only sure that I will die and pay taxes . May 15th has been quoted by many sources though, it is the best info that we have at the moment.

F87 M2 EOP - 10/2020

So, 2 years and 5 months from now...not "one year or little bit".

[DieGrüneHölle]

I think I remember reading UK pricing was increased by 5.5%, but they had seats standard and possibly the new wheels. Either way, this is much smaller price increase than many thought would happen.

[F22_Alpin_Weiss]

Every time this car makes the front page, half the forum starts bashing the OG M2, and the other half goes into total damage control mode.

It's absolutely hilarious.

It's more than a free show, they get paid with each new episode.

Episode 1)
M235i- let's dress it up with ///M badges and do a photoshoot with the 2002. We'll make 'em think that this will be the best 2-series and that there's no successor to the 1M.

Episode 2)
M2 (N55)- let's give the M235i a widebody and some bits from the F8x. Do a photoshoot with the E30 M3 and 1M to create more nostalgia and a narrative that this car has legendary status and the best and purest M.
S55? Nah...we sold the 1M just fine with a "regular" engine. Just tell them we modified it with a closed-deck. By the time they find out it's open-deck, we already have their money.
Don't put those M Mirrors and seats and all that on yet. Ehhh, just tell 'em it doesn't fit.

Episode 3) part 1
M2 Competition- okay we're ready to give them the real deal, kinda. Make sure to emphasize in all the videos that the M Mirrors are present and so is the M Power engine (S55).
Oh remember when we said M mirrors were less aerodynamic and don't fit? Good, neither do we.
Shhhhh, no CF roof as standard because now we already trained the customer not to expect these things for free. Oh, I know, we can charge them for it!

Episode 3) part 2
By the way sorry we forgot to mention if you want a CF roof we have it available as an M Performance product. Also we got stickers, i think they add horsepower, because M.


TL;DR
From the M235i to the M2C with MP parts, BMW has been the instigator and the beneficiary to all the bitching, arguing, and butthurt.

I agree. Especially when videos have been made that highlight the new products by talking down prior models.

I see it as two-fold.

This is why I think BMW is really enjoying the show.
On the one hand, they're basically saying "hahahaha the new one has an M Power engine and M Mirrors ahahahaha suck it OG M2 owners, we win"
And on the other hand, they're basically saying "you complaining skeptical mofos can stfu now and just give me your damn money muahahahaha"

Seriously tho, BMW is winning all the way to the bank. Well played.

Yeah I don't really get it either - it's not like we can't buy one if we want one (or has BMW issued a statement that only those smart enough to not enjoy the N55 M2 over the past few years need apply?).

As a 2018 owner, I appreciate that BMW is continuing to invest in this platform while keeping it a good value - can't wait to see what they come up with next when I'm ready for an upgrade.

[BAN_M2C]

Lol so much drama!

Love the speculations.. I feel like I am back in February 2016 reading all the details of the original M2..

I have enjoyed my 2017 to the fullest since delivery in September 2016!

And if the price is right on the Competition in US I will go for it.

I pity anyone with a current M2 that has not enjoyed every second they could behind the wheel.

I know I have!

I know i was so worried that I just called my dealer and he reassured me my money was still good and I'm first in line even though I bought a previous gen version lmao.

The place is the BMW Welt in Munich. Since (until Saturday) there was a HKS M2C shown in the BMW Welt i assume this might be a photoshop image, but i don´t actually know.
I even didn´t created this thread so you have to ask the moderator who moved my post here

[filet.M2c]

If you want to speculate the US price probably a week before it's announced, vote here!

Right? People act like we can't get the one. As if we couldn't already afford the current m2 lol. I'm still waiting on more photos for HKS, and if it's a killer, or if it grows on me, then i'm going over because I have first allocation on an M2C. If not, i'll give it to someone here. MSRP also

1.If you are able to take the car tomorrow you are right
2. In Italy there are no quote. We check with dealer and is not possible to order because they don't have pricing yet. M2C will arrive as it is configured from bmw Italy.
If you want to order here we are over the year. So at least 20 month.
Otherwise go to dealer and take the car of the launch with no discount....basically at same price and less time order an M3/4 with more hp and possibility to personalize....this is the situation here...
