Enjoy your M4. No need to belittle other people's choices especially when their choices are considered by most auto journalists and reviewers as being better than your choice. |

Drove them both at a BMW track event last night and it reconfirmed that the M4 feels more planted and has more power in the straights than the M2.
As a daily driver if you can afford the M3/M4 it has much better interior than the M2 also.

I don't think it's going to be a very limited run, but more of a transitory model as the S55 will eventually replace the N55 throughout the M2 line. (I believe, but anybody correct me if I'm wrong) EDIT: Some bullet points just mentioned in M2 CS/Comp thread: - Key change is de-tuned (400/410PS) S55 twin turbo M3/M4 engine to replace current N55 as base (i.e. Competition) model - N55 engined M2 to cease production prior to switch to S55 - More factory fitted option availability versus current N55 LCI model e.g. uprated brakes and seats. - New colours – Hockenheim Silver and Sunset Orange with Metallic Grey to be no longer available Last edited by csbear; 12-07-2017 at 03:10 PM.. |

I was too, went with m4 and never looked back.
Power of s55 is unquestionable, interior is light years superior and look is nice. M2 sells for pretty much same price as m4. M2 has longer wait and stupid mark ups...after driving side by side I was so glad I didn't buy m2

I just spend an entire weekend on the track swapping back and forth between an M4, M3, and M2. I found the M2 surprisingly fun and agile on the short courses, but when I swapped to an M4 on a similar sized technical track, I expected to feel weighed down by it's size and mass. On the contrary, I was surprised how nimble the M4 was. I think the added torque and power more than made up for it.

ok, thank you so much for all the advice, but I have made my mind up.
M4 LCI UPDATE COMPETITION PACK. Will buy mid 2018, but now have to decide Sikar Orange or Austin Yellow. The Yellow looks great with the carbon fibre parts, but the Orange looks amazing in the sun. I live in the Whitsunday Island in North Queensland so 330 days of sunshine here, so thinking of that. |

M2 looks ridiculous in the real world. A baby SUV with a tiny wheelbase. There is no getting away from the budget roots of the car.
M4 doesn't really make a lot of sense to me either since the M3 looks so much better and has more utility with the extra doors. If you find the M4 too civilized and want a more raw driving experience take your money, go straight to the Ford dealership, and buy a GT350. |
