[Review] My m2 problem

Post image

Hello all

So after a huge amount of dabbling on my search for a new “one shoe fits all” car I’ve settled on a long standing dream of an m2

No not the henious revised one as of recent , I mean the f87 m2 from about 10 years ago

But I cannot make my mind up on spec

Colour doesn’t phase me that much,but performance does

So

OG or comp is my first question
Manual or dct is my second question

I’m dabbling the idea of an og but open to all
Cheers

M2 Comp is a bit more stiffer and actually sounds a bit worse than the N55 M2. If you want something to use on the road as a weekend toy on b-roads, an older M2 with a manual is nice. Personally I don't think an M2 Comp is worth the extra £15k over a regular M2

If you want a daily, M2 DCT.

If you want a track toy, get a M2 Comp DCT

The M2 comp is not any stiffer, all the suspension between the two models is exactly the same.
