I just ordered a Porsche Cayman. Due in late May 2022. I'm also first on the list at my BMW dealer for one of these but they won't be formally order-able until fall of 2022… guess I'll need to decide if I want to keep the Cayman after a summer of driving it or swap into the new M2. Wish I could afford / had space to keep both.

I find it really interesting. I don't get how you find this bad compared to the mess that happened with the M3-M4. We should be happy they didn't come up with a similar mess with the coming M2

Means nothing IMO. My MK7 Golf R was made in Germany and build quality was no better than a co-worker's mexican made MK7.5. In fact it was a little worse as my Golf R had some some paint defects on delivery.

That said - I don't want a BMW built in Mexico, especially not an M car. The factory is fairly new - about 2 years old. VW has been building cars down there since the '80s. And suppliers are also setting up shop down there for the first time. I just saw an Audi Q5 on BaT that was Mexican-built and the parts content was something like 68% Mexico - basically just the tranny & motor came from Europe. Can we trust all the various suppliers to be building parts to the same quality standards in new factories? I dunno.

I understand that several 3 & 5 series car lineups have been manufactured in Mexico since 2019. The 2 series is just another feather on their cap
