I tested the new M2C recently. Its 7/7 2 days in it last week. Factory dealer test car. Seriously impressed and I love my M2. The power delivery is a touch smoother/linear vs my Non C M2. Couple pics to enjoy -

I love black cars. I mean, fuck em. But I love black cars.

Looks really close to my M3. Same seats minus the holes, shifter, steering wheel, screen etc. How much are the 2cs running for nowadays ?

Just looked into it. 62,390 msrp with blue and auto. But it comes with semi ugly 19s ... they look like the cheap tsw wheels on the golfs that people kept throwing on. That’s a good price as an m3 would be that amount used vs new m2 with similar performance

Sunroof and silver are deal breakers for me. Otherwise, the M2C is a great choice. I'd special order a blue one.

I thought color wasn't a factor?

It's not, Dave gets to order the rainbow in Hermany, since they don't stock the vehicles. At the end of the day it goes down to the :dill:

i'd pick this one if the price was right and it didn't have a moonroof.

Also what happened to that pole.

Not for the M2C. Color choices are the same in all markets. Alpine white/Metallic Black/Orange/Long Beach Blue/Hockenheim Silver - thats it. Better wheel choices though. Build yo German model hier! https://www.bmw.de/de/ssl/configurator. ... 7/esl/new/

I do love the look of that color on my M2. Its incredibly pleasing. Max needs to order up and prepare to leave the M3 world and get his M2C groove on!

It's a really cool color. I'd want to see the orange before deciding but I doubt it looks better.

I'm liking silver on cars lately, but not all cars. Also, colors on cars are fun IMO
