new owner

I’ve been quite indecisive on what car to get next. At one point I had a M3 on order and still have the new Range Rover sport on order. All i knew was I wanted out of the Audi etron GT because electric car prices are dropping and well I can’t go on any trips.

My wife and I were looking at other options yesterday (mainly for SUVs) and we stopped by BMW and the guy goes we have a M2 someone just backed out of - yesterday. Fast forward 2 hours and I took it home! It’s a manual with shadow line and lighting packages. I wish it had the carbon roof but not a big deal and I’ll eventually upgrade the interior with the m performance carbon/alcantara bits.

Have to say it’s a beaut of a car.

Cheers

I guess you just have to not be looking for it to get one! Many on year long waiting list.

Complete luck! Tbf if it was my order I would have added a few packages - but the car is great as is. I would definitely recommend black sapphire

Congratulations. Excellent choice.

Manual or auto?

Nevermind, just read again…

Manual… even better.

5 is a perfectly reasonable # imo. When I first noticed the M2 a few months ago I was SHOCKED it was $62k. TONS of car for the money if you also consider Emira/c8/718. ENJOY!
