Wow I really like it. The color the Wheels I would totally rock that. For me personally I'd set the ride height a bit higher but this looks great. A good competitor to the GLA45AMG that I considered but if BMW did an M version of this I'd be on board.

Not a fan of the chrome, but the rest is nice.

The drop is pretty low, but the body shape looks a lot better closer to the ground - and an X2 isn't a real SUV anyway, so why not?

Now all it needs is the 40i engine and we have a contender for the F31 replacement?? Minus the chrome mind you.

These convex wheels look terrible.

This car should have been maybe a 1 series category, RWD and RWD biased xDrive and not Haldex and BMW would have a winner, possible a new fun frenzy and a new cult.
Unfortunately, they came up with a cute exterior design destroyed by a horizontal hood line, some pig lips, and a FWD platform with terrible seats and a big phallus as a shifter.
Great looking cake, but bad ingredients...

This confirms my theory that the X2 is a hatchback being sold as a SUV.

There will - very probably - not be a M - but M35i= 300+bhp, which is OK with me.

Current X3/X4 M40i, indicates no real bodywork, nor lowering, which for me would be a problem, because std X2 looks light/insignificant - contrary to the M-Design.

I believe there is room for a 3" drop - still with functional chassis, if both springs and shocks are changed.

That looks stupid as hell.

Shrink the rims a couple inches and get rid of the drop and it would be decent.
