Haha close to mine, missing the cognac seats though.
Having a hell of a trip up right now, absolutely loving the car. Tearing through the tail of the dragon and nearby roads was incredible. Ill do more of a full writeup when I get back. Struggling to keep it under 4500 rpm lol

5000. You’re missing a bit of the good bits keeping it to 4500. Glad to hear you’re having fun. How is the wife enjoying the ride? Did Hope do your Delivery? |

My wife loves it, she's still getting comfortable driving a manual so has only ripped it a few times but it fits her much better than any of our other cars (pedals/seating position work well even through she's quite short). PCD was awesome, I think Leon was the name of the guy who did the delivery. No one else was getting anything fun though, just x7/x5/x3/i4 and 430i which I suprised about

Enjoy the rest of the road trip. Hit me up when you’re getting close to NY. I’ll bring Sandwiches! And to the conflicting information. I just read the Owners Manual, figured I’d take the M Division’s word for it. Definitely not listening to a bunch of blowhards on Bimmerpost |

Nice comparison. I feel the new M2 is more like the 1M but what do I know.

135is = Great little car. As time goes on people forget the different eras of size /dimensions.

Comparing a 6-speed manual G87 M2 with the pano roof & an automatic G80 M3 Comp seemed a touch weird / strange to me. If you want to do a more apples to apples comparison, make sure they all have 6-speed manuals & are all on PS4S tires. But that's just me.
