[QUOTE=M2siast;30237219]Hahahaha I just had to click one button to find out you drive an OG M2! Hahahahahahaha

I honestly don't understand why that's funny. I drive an M2 so who better to derive an opinion from than the guy who's literally paying more than a fuckin grand a month to drive one. I wanted a new M2. I wanted to unapologetically own one because I'm hooked to the design of the F M2. The angles. The speed. The stance. So there's not another enthusiast who wanted to drive a G but me, but BMW changed. Not me. Unfortunately, BMW opted to appease another audience and I'm frustrated. I'm sorry my opinion differs from yours, but I'm not in Asia lauding over an inferior design that's 5 years newer than its superior predecessor. Enjoy your G. I'll enjoy my next Porsche or die trying to defend BMW when they actually built a vehicle that spoke to me, opposed to selling out by capturing a nuance East market share. You accept your truths and I'll accept what's the actual truth...BMW sold out and you're a buyer.

They didn't knock it out of the park with the F series either...
This though, reminds me of the old VW German commercials of pimp my auto except the Germans are on the wrong side of the river now...

Are all German designers 24 year-olds with a Transformers addiction? Vorsteiner has doubled-down on Bimmer's in-house design language. Clearly waiting for an LCI improvement isn't in the cards.

I like it. Majority of it looks functional too. Not as cohesive as the AlphaN version but still a nice improvement over stock & much better than the Mperformance garbage.

The G87 has been criticized for that but I’m 64 and actually like the look of the stock car. I’d drive it, but I’m a 64 year old kid that likes fast cars. Also very much like the feral industries carbon aero kit. But yea.. this would be a little much for me. I’m sure it will appeal to some tho.

I guess I would have to see it in person but seems a tad on the transformer looking side for me. Little boxy

You owning an M2 is funny because it’s the sour grapes fable. Jealousy. Need to justify your own by putting what’s new and better down…

You don’t understand why you don’t want the new one. Hint, it’s not because it’s “bad”. It’s because for you, it doesn’t make sense to “upgrade” given the improvements and changes (that are not always improvements) over your current model.
I mentioned this before, I don’t always upgrade my iPhone. Screens get bigger, edges get squared, I don’t like those. Cameras protrude.
I kept my iPhone 7 until it broke, and until I saw a very compelling reason to replace it with a new iPhone.

Your “iPhone” is just too new. I know I didn’t replace my 135i with an OG M2 or M2C because they weren’t worth it. It’d be even worse if I had a 1M…
So I get what you’re going through in not needing or wanting to replace your car with the new one. The only difference is that I didn’t go on the M2 forums to say how crappy that car is with EPS, and no extra power, an N55 instead of a true M engine, an ugly rear end with ugly tail lights… you get the point. You are doing that. Stop it. Wait until the next M2 comes around and by then “BMW’s direction” will have swayed back to your desires.
You sound like a bucket of fun to hang out with

I'm not gonna say it's an upgrade but it looks better than stock and that's saying something.

Proper black BBS type wheels and black paint will make this thing look supremely aggressive v the Ru Paul color combo.

Vorsteiner quality and customer service are hit and miss, but at least they’re SoCal local.

I still can't get myself to like the headlight and taillight design, it doesn't feel BMW, I need to see that angel eye aesthetic!
