Agree it looks way better in person. Saw one for the first time last week and it looked really good. BMW are saying that the current M2/3/4 will be BMW’s last models with a manual gearbox 😢

I just saw that the 2025 M2 will have Xdrive and are thinking of having just the 8 speed auto but it’s not final yet.

@@weduhpeople8504 Where did you "see" that? It's false information. 2026 may see X Drive, but not 2025. 2025 cars are getting 20 more HP, though, plus likely some relatively minor enhancements. I have one on order (pending allocation).

Love your videos man, so raw and without all of the bloat of other reviewers

Great video. I just got the M2 6 speed manual press car yesterday, same color, but mine had the Carbon Bucket seats. I loved my 2016 M2.

Honestly same. It looks good in person esp in certain colors

is it just me or is this car beautiful? it gives me e46 m3, and f87 m2 vibes.

I love the looks too

Super cool to see your videos when you or the topher are at Road America, I was there last weekend for the vintage festival

I'm in love!!

Hows the manual feel vs the manual supra?

Chris, great video! Glad to hear you found it to be more engaging than the G80/G82. Any thoughts on the fake noise? I’m 80% sure it does a fake boom on upshifts too, as it does in the automatic versions. It’s sooo painful to me and comes across badly on video but curious on your perspective.

Any advice on starting a car review channel? Tips and tricks to be able to review cars from dealers?

Finally a video with the cognac interior. Honestly I wouldn’t mind trading my G80X for a M2. Seems like a bargain in comparison since you get the same engine, breaks and etc. but for a whole lot less money.

here power is downgraded. here weight same as m3.

how stiff is the suspension in comfort ? Is it floaty or no ?

Love the interior color but not with the Zandvoort blue exterior

who wins in a race? Lil Toph in the M2 or the Prius Prime?

M4 starts at 30% more than an M2. I wouldn't call that just a "little" bit more regardless of the price range.

The new manual in the m2 is so good and much better then the f87

How the reliability on the new G80? Also I want to get the manual G80 but I don’t know if to go for the new ID8 screen or the old one. The only one looks beautiful but a lot of people are saying the new one is really cool once you get used to it. What do you think is the better screen ?

A friend has owned a G80 M3 since new (march 2021) and it now has around 40k miles on it. Absolutely no issues to report as of now and there has been beaten on on track multiple times. It also has the older screens and they look so much better, their integration in the dashboard is perfect.

I like the current Supra better just bc it doesn’t have the tv screens

I really wanted this one but its over 650,000 NIS, thats over 170,000$ Feels bad, I'll stay with my civic

Penso che il cambio manuale sia l’ultima cosa che tu sappia usare… 😮

Why is dude constantly short shifting?

car for sure needs an aero kit, that front end is horrendous

would be amazing with 250 lbs less weight 😅

you were saying the car colour so well until you called it german its dutch and is a track

I finally realised ,BMW can’t do noses.

Zandvoort is a city in the Netherlands... nothing to do with anything Germany or German

Zandvoort is dutch not german ;]

You would like it to have less power, choose the diesel 👍☹️

I was hoping BMW M would redeem themselves with a slam dunk new M2. Ugh.

I’m glad I didn’t get a manual. Hondas have better manuals than bmw. Not sure why people are so obsessed with manuals. I’ve driven them for decades and do not miss them one bit. Sequential shifting and the technology with these transmissions are far superior. I still feel connected with the vehicle when utilizing sequential shifting.

The best thing about owning the new m2 is when you are in it you don't have to see how ugly the outside is.

I’m in the minority that really digs the look

Not sure why you would opt to get this over the m4. Objectively can do the same thing (same drivetrain), no big weight difference in rwd, both polarizing cars in their own right but I'd say the m4 has been better received in the looks department. The cherry on top for me would be that the m4 has more room inside and without these being a purpose built car its a no brainer to me. Unless you're trying to save money but who is penny pinching when looking at a brand new M car, don't think money is the main factor.

God I wish I could afford this car and I don't really like bmws

I rather get the M240 with a manual transmission and save about $9000. It is easier to live with and can do almost as an M2. Edit: No more manual transmission in 230 or the M240.

The outside just looks ugly I hate how they're ruining bmw

What is this gummy you speak of???????????

Just a note: Now that there's engines AND motors in many cars, I think it's important to be specific.... This thing has an Engine, not a motor.
