NEW PICS pg 3... Two M2s In the Morning Fog (and sun)

M2PDX · 10-08-2024, 08:39 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

An epic drive up and over Parrot Mountain and Bald Peak in the NW Oregon foothills.

Started out around 40 degrees, in dense fog, which made for some awesome shots! Very impressive handling in slippery conditions (although a set of all weather Michelins might be good idea for future fall drives).

Both M2s share a variety of carbon bits, M Performance Suspension, strut braces, intakes, and Dinan X pipes. The 6MT Calypso Red has 825M forged wheels. The ZF auto Toronto Red adds an axle back Dinan exhaust and a Race Chip. Both can fly!

Yes, it was even more amazing in person.

Here's a live action clip.

Thank you for share these pics!

Nice!!
Great shots and sounds like a great drive!

The M2 is the only remaining M car my books (which account for little).

Did you run into any of the Cullens back there? 🧛🏻&zwj;♂️🧛🏻&zwj;♂️

LOL...no, but 2 coyotes and a family of raccoons scurried across the road.

What front air intake protector does the Calypso Red have? Doesn’t look like the zunsport since it’s inside?

Sounds good. PM me your contact info.

Calypso Red is a wonderful car on this car. It has those 1930s Alfa Romeo / Ferrari vibes, and Id say its a color that has mostly grown on me out of all Ive seen. Red is nice, but this is a classy person's red, if there is a thing like that.

Kind of like this one, which is in a collection about 10 miles from me.

Oh yeah, I saw that one, but you had to zip tie it. I don’t see any zip ties here or is it just me?

They are just artfully hidden.
