Who else is waiting for the M2 to be their next M car?

V1.47fan · 07-03-2014, 10:17 AM

Who else thinks the more compact M2 is the natural replacement for the E9X M3?

rngrjag · 07-03-2014, 10:21 AM

Me.

Amirsm3 · 07-03-2014, 10:22 AM

I feel like it's gonna be a slightly larger 1M and a slightly smaller e9X m3. I don't know if I would want something smaller than the E90 I have now. I'm definitely enjoying all the utility I get from the car as it sits.

I would say a GTR, Vette, 911, or F8x M3 are more "natural" replacements for the E9x m3. Your poll also needs a third option of "maybe". I wouldn't rule out an M2 as my next car, but won't commit to it without knowing for sure the specs, pricing, and what the competition will be offering (new Mustang, 370z replacement, possible resurrected S2000, BRZ STI, etc)

By the way, that sig pic needs a new addition for the F80 M3

Denk · 07-03-2014, 02:44 PM

A big maybe. I'm more interested in it than the new f8x M's. Looking forward to its release.

Ezio · 07-03-2014, 02:59 PM

I don't see this view. the M2 is to small, and has a turbo engine. i would never consider getting one.

r1762 · 07-03-2014, 04:10 PM

to bad I need 4 doors if I didn't need the extra doors I would get the M2

tdott · 07-03-2014, 04:23 PM

Since it won't be limited production like the 1M, I'm not interested.

Hopefully they make a GTS/CSL model.

Mthrice · 07-03-2014, 04:41 PM

Thinking of adding an M2!

F1Venom · 07-03-2014, 05:27 PM

Maybe. But by the time it hits dealerships there will be a ton of other competition that's not out yet.

aus · 07-04-2014, 10:18 AM

Depends on the engine. Detuned S55, maybe. Tuned N55, no thanks.

Is YOUR M3 limited production? Or am I missing something?

I never said my M3 was...

I was saying if the M2 was limited production like the 1M I would have already put down a deposit to pre-order one when it becomes available.

So you want a limited production car, this is what I'm gathering..?

Why did you get an M3?

DBH · 07-04-2014, 05:57 PM

Although I voted yes, there really should be a "maybe" option. The M cars are getting larger and larger. I'm really interested to see what the M2 has to offer. Then I'll give you a yes or no.

sgrinavi · 07-04-2014, 06:24 PM

Poll fail, you're missing two things:

3. I'm going take a look at the M2 when it comes out and decide them
4. I like dogs

I'm saying if the M2 was I'd buy it. Because like the 1M the values actually went up.

Who wouldn't buy an M2 if that was sure to be the case again?
Get it now? Done trying to bust my balls?

Kthxbye

Krockit1 · 07-04-2014, 08:16 PM

Not me. All of this parsing is bullshit. I have made the mistake of test driving a Jaguar F type R. Faded my M3 lust. Do yourself a favor. Don't drive one. You will be lying to yourself if you say it wasn't superior to what we measure our street or track fun by.

cws · 07-05-2014, 08:27 AM

The Jag is great.

There are plenty of performance cars once you tick off all the options on the new Ms. I'm sure ZCP and individual option could drop $100k on a new M.

My issue is my E92 is a toy not DD for me ( an E60 535i does that job really well for me). When you look at the performance and DD car argument the segment for $90k+ cars isn't really to do both.

You are not going to drive from SF to LA with 4 adults in the back of a new M3 comfortably however a 535i does it better and probably just as fast ( not quickly).

The jag is high on my list

cant believe a Supercharged V8 came out of Europe. that might be the selling point for me.

In fact what you said is that you don't want one because it wont be a limited production model, not really the same thing! Don't you see the difference!?

:

As for OPs question, I can't wait to see what this car will look like, I'd probably love to get one in addition to my E92, the next RS3 sedan looks very promessing too!
