M2 Competition

Post by gurkin1234 » Sat Jul 04, 2020 7:27 pm

Well, having sold the Z4 Coupe 2 weekends ago, it has now been replaced by another mistress!

First impressions - DCT gearbox is brilliant but still slightly miss the connection from stirring gears myself. Speed - this car is seriously fast and feels like a serious step up from the z4.

Looks - obviously beauty is subjective but I think the z4 coupe is a better looking car. These are a hell of a lot more purposeful though and have more road presence!
Interior is much better to spend time in from a ‘toys’ perspective but in some ways I miss the simplicity of having a key, sport button and not much else!

Initial plans to probbaly paint the backbox matte black before enjoying the M division's finest!

Very nice! Your photos don't do this justice. The rear ends look fantastic from directly behind. They certainly have a lot of road presence. Bet its fantastic to drive.

Hi Craig

All good thanks - been really busy haven’t stopped during shutdown - thought that it would be time to do a few homers and some DIY but no 😩
Not used the M2C much went out last weekend and had an engine management light come on - O2 sensor - cleared it and came back 14 miles later - have cleared it again and at the moment all good - let’s hope it stays that way. Yes will catchup soon 👍

gurkin1234, I am now actually the new owner of your old Z4 Coupe! Sold my E46 M3 a few months back and needed something to fill the gap. Happy with it so far. Your M2 looks immense. Enjoy.
