Ages of M2 owners

Msondeck · 10-10-2024, 01:22 PM

29 in a couple weeks, this is my first new car and im very happy with it. I wanted to get back into a 6 speed coupe. S58+shorter wheel base was a no brainer.

36. Took delivery of a 24 last week!

NJbaitshop · 10-10-2024, 03:20 PM

I'm 35 years old.

Picked up my G87 in January.

Previous car, which I still own is a 2014 WRX that I had since new.

Before that had a 2003 Mk4 GTI (1.8T), 1997 Cadillac Catera, and the first car was a 1995 Ford Escort wagon.

So far happy with the progression!

59.
Grew up near Watkin Glen and a racing fan my entire life. Finally decided I needed to stop watching and start doing. Starting with autocross and thinking HPDE. Cheers

603BlueM2 absolutely love that you are starting something new! Never too old to learn and do new things. Great role model from that aspect!

This is supposed to be disclosing the age of M2 owners. Though I think we would accept if one was on order. Sorry, you are just an easy target.

47 here. Getting back into a manual after about 7 years off. My car is on a ship that’s been circling the Atlantic to get away from Milton. Hope to have it soon.

Sold my 2007 RS4 in 2017, haven't driven a manual since.
Previous, all manuals, 2004 S4, 2001 S4, 1999 A4.

It always came down to a manual BMW or Audi for me, but Audi had Quattro and it was hard to resist in NY. This time only one had a manual option.

Wish I still had a few (or all) of them.

MidLife_M2 · 10-11-2024, 09:51 AM

41, this will be my first BMW, should have it by March 2025 according to genius.

Last sporty/manual car was a 2017 Focus RS. Ironic that the Ford was built in Germany but the BMW isnt. Got rid of it after a year and drove Jeep Wranglers until now. My daily beater is a 2005 Corolla CE with crank windows and 77k miles that I picked up for cheaper than it would cost to do a brake job on the M2.
