Isn't that the case for the new M3 and M4 comp models? I thought those were auto only, and you could option RWD or AWD. I assume BMW would follow suit with the M2. BMW must want their comp models to be the fastest versions of themselves 0 to 60 and around a track.

Thanks for clarifying.

I wish we had a sarcasm font.
As an alternative we could use a simple extended punctuation such as “/s”.
Ok, let’s see if this works.
Joe Biden knew nothing about Hunter’s business endeavors. /s
Perfect.

Many of us have suspected this for quite some time. No reason for it to be any different than what is in place for the G80/G82C.

There are rumors brewing which I'm not privy to share at the moment regarding more coming for MY25. I can't say anything else for now but stay tuned.

It is almost like the rumors about iPhone 16 prior to iPhone 15 even being announced. Keep in mind that many times rumors do not pan out.

Thankfully I love Brooklyn and this doesn't bother me. Sau Paulo could look badass.

I suspect there should be some heavy emphasis on the following that was previously posted.


08/24: engine power increases to 475hp; cosmetic changes including new wheel options. This is not the "CS" or "Competition". Skyscraper Gray, Mineral Red, Portimao Blue, and Sao Paulo Yellow could be the new colors.

It “could” rain tomorrow too.

I only qualified this with "could" instead of "will" since four new colors (all of which I have seen) seem like a lot.

Can you provide any more insight as to the color of the wheel?

BMW used to provide some of the best OEM polished silver wheels of any marque in the automotive industry (see exhibit A below). Now it seems to think everybody salivates over grey, bicolor, or jet black wheels.

There are still a couple of old school guys like me around that appreciate the classic-colored wheels more than what is trendy.

Here's hoping for a "silver" lining in this thread and your post.
