So what do you think of the new M2?
- Thread starter original guvnor
- Start date
Isn't there already an X4?
Anyway discussions about X models is a bit irrelevant on the thread about the M2.
I don't really get the comments about the M4 really.
If you've got £45k to get a new car (and you want a brand new car) then the fact that the M4 is available for £15k higher than your budget is a bit irrelevant isn't it? The M2 is a different segment to the M4 and that's why the power and performance has been tailored to the level it has. Perhaps a more relevant question is "Is there enough extra in an M2 to justify the premium over an M235i?". I looked at an M235i this morning in Sytner and its ok but it's not exactly a head turner.

In a way yes - based on the X3 but with a coupe rear end - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/cars/bmw/x4/
I find the X6 too big, too expensive but this looks great, is exclusive and in a year or so should be more affordable

I want to like it ... but I'm not sold yet. It isn't special enough 
I think it looks compact and muscular with it's short overhangs pumped up arches. I'm glad they have kept the rear bumper simple and not given it the M3/4 treatment which I think really spoils the rear end of those cars.
The wheels really fill those arches, where as on the M3/4 there's a lot of space between wheel and arch that I don't think looks great.
I think they've taken a relatively dull looking car and made it look exciting, best looking BMW since the E86 :lol:
