Assuming the press release weight for the G87 is based on EU weight at 1730kg, the German market EU weight for the M3 manual is 1780kg and the M4 manual EU weight is 1775kg. DIN weights are 75kg less than EU weights and US kerb weights are normally about the same as the DIN weights.

Interior colors are childish and belong on a 90's Honda Civic.

Weight is unforgivable. 3,800-3,900 pounds? FFS...

50/50 on pulling name off the dealer's list.
Please pull your name and give it to me. Also don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out!

Please tell me you’re in your mid 20’s. I can’t recall interacting with someone 30 and older who handles themselves the way you do. You’re acting as if members are calling your first born child an atrocious Quasimodo. It’s a car, people can have opinions on either side, except I don’t see anyone attacking people who do like the new M2.

Chill out Francis. It’s going to be okay.



Godfather doesn’t find it hideous but also doesn’t find it as appealing as OG, LCI, or M2C. It’s definitely going to perform and look forward to the typical M2 vs Cayman reviews.

Really?
Zero people are trashing a car to make themselves feel better? Who does that?

It's a long thread, maybe someone with a better memory than me can say if this is the worst take in this thread or not.

kind of a shame to know the same engine has another 100hp in CSL guise but that's the way it goes.
$700 on a JB4 and a little ethanol, and suddenly this lil M has ~600hp

At least that would have explained some of the 200lb weight gain vs my MT F80 :

If you're afraid of anything new in design, stick to some basic safe designed brands. Mercedes might be a better fit for someone unwilling to evolve.

My mind didn't change vs the leaked photos. It's bad.

This is a great example of how a concept design can look so good but not translate into reality.

This will sell like crazy. Demand will be very strong due to the price point, won't be surprised if it's harder to snag an allocation vs G80/82. They are paying homage to the E30 M3 with the rear fenders and overall body work. This is probably one of the best designs to come from BMW of late. Finally I'm saying great job to the M division designers.

Official weights are 3814 (M2), 3840 (M3). I assume they equip them similarly, although the M3 offers the CF roof standard but the M2 does not, but that's still only an ~80 lb. difference whereas the M3 includes two extra doors, 9" extra in length, and much greater rear seat and trunk space.

Interesting that this car only uses genuine leather after that fake story a few weeks ago about all the supposed demand for synthetic leather BMW is seeing.

Definitely much better than the leaks, not as good as the OG looks wise. I’m sure it will be a great driver. I’d buy if I could get an MSRP allocation, but with markups I’ll pass and get the M4 or something else instead.
